How to Set Fees in Private Practice: A Step-by-Step Formula for Therapists

Is your last client of the day getting the same therapist as your first?

Same training, same license, same deep compassion. But maybe a different nervous system.

That difference usually has nothing to do with your clinical skill. It comes from pay set too low, so you carry more people than you can attune to, and the ones at the end of the week or the day absorb it.

They feel it. They rarely name it. Some of them just stop rebooking.

In this live training, Miranda walks you through the formula that tells you what your fee actually needs to be, so the work stays as good as you are.

BONUS: If that number is higher than what platforms and insurance companies are offering, we will talk about your options.

In this training, you'll learn:

The fee formula: a step-by-step calculation that gives you an actual number based on your expenses, your caseload, and your life. Not what others charge. Not what venture capital or insurance executives suggest. Your number.
One number, every arrangement: the same floor tells you what you need from private pay, from an insurance contract, from a 1099 agreement, and from a platform. Fees and splits come off the top, so you will know exactly what a contract has to pay for it to still clear your number.
What to do when the numbers don’t match: when your floor is higher than what you are being offered, you have four real options. We walk through each one, including what it actually costs you.
The real cost of sliding: the math behind sliding scale decisions, and why a $10 difference per session is worth far more than most therapists realize.

How do I know if this training is for me?
This free training is for therapists in private practice who want to be paid based on real math, not guesswork. Whether you're sliding more than you'd like or overdue for a raise, you'll leave with your number.

Will a recording be available?
Yes. We will offer a time-limited replay so you can catch it if you cannot make it live, or rewatch before the window closes. Once that window ends, the replay comes down, so sign up to make sure you get access.

Do I need to do any pre-work?
No, but if you want to come prepared, fill out your free fee-setting worksheet so your numbers are in front of you during the training.

Is this training eligible for CEs?
No. This is a business-focused training, so it is not CE-eligible. If you are looking for CE-eligible trainings, our Free Trainings Library at zynnyme.com/free includes a few.

What if I require accommodations?
zynnyme is committed to providing universal access to all of our events. Whenever possible, closed captioning is provided and transcripts are available.
