Enroll · $297
You learned how to do the work. Nobody taught you how to get paid for it.

Insurance credentialing, reimbursement rates, payment models, and billing systems are rarely taught, and the gap shows up fast once you are in practice. This course covers how money actually moves in a private practice, so the business side stops being a guess.

Who this is for

You are deciding between insurance and private pay. You are navigating credentialing and not sure where to begin. Or you are already in practice, trying to make sense of your income and build a system you can actually run.

What you will cover
1The real difference between insurance-based and private pay models
2What credentialing actually involves, and how long it takes
3How to use platforms like Headway, Rula, and Alma to simplify paneling
4When superbills make sense, and when they do not
5How to find your income floor and price every decision against it
6How to build a billing system that runs without you managing it by hand every week
A tool I recommend
Taking insurance without the paperwork nightmare

If insurance is part of your path, Headway handles credentialing, billing, and getting paid for you, so you can be in-network without managing all of it by hand.

Lisa is a former educator and has been a private practice owner for over 14 years. She started in a small single-office space that grew into a busy two-location group practice she both managed and owned. Her work with trauma survivors led her to move into a more individualized, mostly remote practice so she could focus deeply on client care. Drawing on years of hands-on experience in both the business and clinical sides of therapy, she gives other therapists practical, real-world guidance to build fulfilling, lasting practices of their own.

Self-paced · Lifetime access

You can be fully booked and still underpaid. The therapists who actually make a living did not work harder. They chose their payment model on purpose, got credentialed without the guesswork, and built a billing system that runs itself. That is what this course gives you.
