The "business" of practice as a mental health professional is a
skill that is seldom taught in school and requires thoughtful
guidance and professional mentorship from those who have already
succeeded.
Containing the collective wisdom and secrets of many expert
practitioners, this helpful resource provides useful insights for
setting up, managing, and marketing your practice, including timely
advice on being a successful provider in the digital age--from
Internet marketing to building your online presence.
Designed for private practices of any size and at any stage of
development, this practical guide looks at:
* Creating your dream niche practice
* Choosing the right technological tools and resources to
simplify and streamline your job
* Leveraging the Internet to market your practice
* Developing a practice outside of managed care
* Transitioning to executive coaching
* Ethical and legal aspects of private practice
Full of action-oriented ideas, tips, and techniques, Getting
Better at Private Practice provides both early career and
seasoned mental health professionals with the knowledge and tools
they need to establish, develop, and position their practice so
that it is financially successful and life-enriching over the long
term.
