Anyone with psychologist partners or friends? Trying to help my wife figure out next steps in her career. Currently is a clinical psychologist seeing about 20 ppl/week for 120-130 dollars a person (she currently takes insurance). IMO this limits her overall earning potential. Trying to figure out if she could: drop insurance and charge more, scale out and build her own practice, and/or work more (could maybe see 26-28 ppl/week). Curious if anyone can share thoughts or brain power!

Pretty sure most companies let psychologists provide side consultation. Not sure she should/can drop insurance but I BBC would let people charge it if they can. Probably would give more people a reason to go

Think bigger brother man. She could scale up and hire cheaper help and pocket the delta. If she’s not interested in being an owner and her current client base is willing and able to pay with no insurance, that’s a good option too

You can still get reimbursed for visits out of network even if they don’t take insurance. So yes, $200 per visit, but PPO plans will cover a portion of that at least. For me it’s 65%, others are higher.

The best therapists I’ve found don’t take insurance and psychologists are at a premium now!

Yes that is the challenge with going freelance is we have to also be marketers, accountants, bill collectors, and everything else.

There are some market place sites that list therapists, I looked through those but ultimately got mine through word of mouth. (< that is a strange phrase 🤨, anyway) there are definitely ways. And yes an updated website with offerings and a nice warm bio with some pics will go a long way. After all, gotta build trust if people are going to talk to this person about their deepest darkest. Maybe an online course about marketing? That’s really the crux here. Once she masters that she’ll be a certified hustla raking it in, having a blast, helping people!

Social media!! So many ppl get clients by having a presence/brand/vids on IG, YouTube, TikTok & even paying to run ads in those spaces

You’d be surprised. I have also seen dentists and other doctors making quick vids & so many ppl just watch & find out about them via social media. It wouldn’t hurt to try
