Build a practice that is ethical, sustainable, and aligned with the life you want—without having to learn everything the hard way.

You became a therapist to help people—not to spend hours figuring out insurance credentialing, marketing, documentation, or business systems.

Starting or growing a private practice can feel overwhelming. Between deciding which electronic health record to use, navigating insurance panels, setting fees, creating policies, and marketing your services, it's easy to feel stuck or unsure where to begin.

I've been there.

As the owner of Making Waves Counseling & Wellness, I've built a successful private practice while continuing to provide high-quality clinical care. Through consultation, I help therapists simplify the business side of private practice so they can spend more time doing what they do best—helping clients.

Whether you're just getting started or looking to improve the systems you already have, consultation provides practical guidance tailored to your goals.

Areas We Can Cover

Business Consultation

Consultations are offered virtually for therapists throughout North Carolina and beyond.

Everything I share during consultation comes from my own experience building and growing a successful private practice. These are practical lessons I've learned through trial and error, continued education, and navigating the day-to-day realities of running a business while providing quality clinical care. My goal is to help you feel more confident, avoid some of the common pitfalls, and build a practice that aligns with your values and the life you want to create.

Whether you're just getting started or looking to refine an established practice, I'd be honored to support you along the way. I hope to see you soon!
