Burnout is a common concern for private practice owners. The constant demands of running your business, managing a full client load, and balancing your personal life can leave you feeling drained and overwhelmed. For many therapists, this isn’t just about long hours or administrative tasks—it’s about the emotional labor of the work.

When you first started your private practice, you likely focused on delivering excellent care to your clients. But as you grow your business, one thing becomes clear: running a successful practice isn’t just about providing therapy—it’s about understanding the business side of things, too.

Facebook groups for private practice owners can feel like a goldmine of advice, tips, and camaraderie.
