What we’re about
Who this group is for
Licensed and pre-licensed mental health therapists (LMFT, LMHC/LPCC, LCSW/LICSW, PsyD/PhD, Associates), whether in solo or group practice. Members may be running, preparing to run, or contributing to the operations of a therapy practice. Conversations focus on practice operations and growth.
Why we meet
Running a therapy practice comes with questions: How do you navigate insurance networks? What tech actually helps? How do you grow without losing yourself in the process? Justin and Michelle have spent years in the weeds of healthcare operations and create space for mental health providers to talk it through together.
What we do
Short, friendly sessions that combine Live Q&A on the business side of therapy (billing, insurance, pricing, intakes, payer panels, tech, workflows) with light networking so you can meet peers and let others know who’s a good fit to refer your way.
Format and cadence
- 30 minutes on Zoom, quick and focused
- Member intros, then Live Q&A with practice ops experts Justin Ith and Michelle Arendas
- Occasional longer sessions and guest experts as we grow
What you can expect
- Practical answers you can apply right away
- A chance to share your specialty and who you see, so peers know when to refer
- A warm, low-pressure vibe; cameras optional
Scope
We focus on business and operations. This is not clinical consultation. Referrals are not guaranteed, and we do not provide legal or tax advice. Members may share who they see so peers know when to refer, but all connections are peer-to-peer.
