Hi, I’m Dr. Adam Volungis; professor, psychologist, licensed mental health counselor, author of “Becoming a Mental Health Counselor,” and expert in helping mental health professionals create a thriving private practices. I’ve spent the last 20 years educating and mentoring a variety of mental health professionals. If you give me a few minutes of your time, I’ll show you how to get your private pra
ctice up and running in 6 weeks or less – and then quit your job and go full-time within months! I’ve built my own private practice with insurance and cash clients who range from motivated adolescents to professionals like doctors and mental health counselors, where I get paid what I’m worth. Your dream of making well into 6-figures while working at your own pace and having more time for self-care and to be with your family and friends is a lot easier and faster to realize than you think. I know what it’s like to work for an organization with grueling hours, excessive paperwork and pointless meetings, unmotivated clients, and literally no time for self-care. And I want you to know that you deserve better. Your work changes peoples’ lives and makes our world a better place. You deserve to be paid what you’re worth and control the hours and schedule you work. The first thing we need to do are the practical steps to get you into action right away so you can be up and running in the next 4-8 weeks. Literally, within the first 24-48 hours of joining my program you can begin the process of preparing for your transition into your private practice, developing your financial model to predict your income, get the right kind of corporate entity in place, and begin the credentialing process. And no, the credentialing process is not has difficult as you may have been told. I know the path of least resistance to get you on panels with insurance companies that pay you your value. And no, it is not difficult to submit your insurance and get paid. The second thing we need to do are the marketing steps. I want to keep you out of the private practice traps that keep mental health professionals broke and using unnecessary time. This is not just about throwing your resume out to a few places. It’s about creating optimized directory listings that create 3x more client enquires than most of what you’ll see out there today. I’ll also teach you how to supercharge the process of getting regular referrals. The third thing we will do is help you build your own support network because when you are moving from a job where you have supervision or other experienced people around you into operating independently you need to have your own support system. This way you never feel that you’re out of your depth, and you have expert advice mentoring you in how to effectively turn enquires into clients, and maintain your client relationships until they are ready to move on. As we build all these three things, we are also going to create a calculation. This is what I run through with every mental health professional I mentor. There is a calculation we can use so that we know with the growth rate of your practice when is the time – what is the litmus test – to quit your job and move into private practice full time without missing a financial beat. Because for some people they stay stuck in part-time practice for so long. They are working evenings and weekends in their private practice, but they are keeping their staff job they don’t like because they don’t know when to take the leap into full-time practice responsibly. If we do this correctly, we can move you into full-time private practice much sooner than most mental health professionals ever achieve. Look, I’ve spent two decades watching mental health professionals try to create private practices. I’ve seen all the mistakes, and I’ve seen the huge wins that come from executing this properly. There are two ways to get started. A multi-year transition that requires you to work even harder than you are right now, and transition from part-time super slow. Or there’s the fast track that can get you out of a job that frustrates you and into calling your own shots by making all the right moves, in the right order, and having the right support there to make sure you get it done. I’m looking for a select group of individuals – licensed mental health professionals who are tired of working for someone else while getting burnt out – who are motivated to work for themselves, want to more than double their income, and have more time for their own self-care and be with family and friends! This is a supportive and successful group with proven methods, including myself, my wife, recent graduates, and professionals from across the country. Contact me directly to schedule an appointment now to talk with me about starting your private practice within weeks. This is at no cost to you and there is no obligation. Again, I’m looking for motivated, invested, and committed individuals. I look forward to talking with you soon about making one of biggest positive shifts in your professional career.
