Approximately 74,000 mental health professionals are found in private practice across the United States, making it a popular path! Unfortunately, many mental health professionals complete their graduate coursework without receiving any formal training in business.
Private practice practitioners increase accessibility of mental health services that are often aligned with client needs more directly. The hope is that this toolkit provides each participant with the knowledge and skills needed to create and operate sustainable practices for the benefit of self, clients, and the communities in which they operate!

Learn strategies to help both you and your clients navigate the age of overindulgence. Prepare to demystify the complexities of compulsive behavior and unlock the keys to lasting change.
We are in a time of unprecedented access to high-reward, high-dopamine stimuli: drugs, food, news, gambling, shopping, gaming, texting, Facebooking, Instagramming, YouTubing, and tweeting. The increased numbers, variety, and potency are staggering. As such, we have all become vulnerable to compulsive overconsumption. Yet, it is possible to find contentment and connectedness by keeping dopamine in check. Dr. Anna Lembke provides a practical, science-informed approach to addressing compulsive overconsumption of everything from food to sex to video games, using a framework captured by the acronym DOPAMINE

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: Introduction to Mindful and Behavior Change Processes in the Service of Meaning June 6-7, 2024 Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is an evidence-based behavioral treatment that emphasizes acceptance of emotion and thought while focusing on positive behavior change that is meaningful and consistent with personal values. ACT uses verbal, experiential, and homework techniques, mindfulness, and other awareness practices to help clients connect with internal events (thoughts, feelings, sensations), reducing rigid attempts to control negative emotions and thoughts. New learning by the client is consistent with openness to experience and commitment to actions linked to personal meaning. The ultimate goal of ACT is to support clients by increasing psychological and behavioral flexibility.

Radical Healing is a psychological framework that aims to address the intergenerational trauma and systemic oppression experienced by marginalized communities. This framework is particularly relevant for working with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) and immigrant populations, who have been historically marginalized and impacted by systemic racism, discrimination, and oppression.
Radical Healing is a holistic approach that recognizes the interconnectedness of individual, communal, and systemic healing. It acknowledges the impact of historical trauma, racism, and oppression on individuals and communities and seeks to empower individuals and communities to reclaim their power and agency. Radical Healing is grounded in social justice principles and is committed to dismantling systems of oppression.
BIPOC and immigrant populations have historically been marginalized and impacted by systemic oppression, resulting in intergenerational trauma and psychological distress. The Radical Healing framework recognizes the impact of systemic oppression and seeks to empower individuals and communities to reclaim their power and agency. It also recognizes the unique cultural and historical experiences of BIPOC and immigrant populations and incorporates culturally responsive and trauma-informed approaches to healing.
The key principles of Radical Healing in working with BIPOC and immigrant populations include:
Centering the experiences and voices of BIPOC and immigrant populations: Radical Healing recognizes the importance of centering the experiences and voices of marginalized communities in the healing process. This involves creating a safe and supportive space for individuals to share their experiences and providing culturally responsive and trauma-informed care. Addressing systemic oppression: Radical Healing acknowledges that the root of trauma and psychological distress in BIPOC and immigrant populations is systemic oppression. This involves addressing the impact of historical trauma, racism, and discrimination and working to dismantle systems of oppression. Incorporating culturally responsive and trauma-informed approaches: Radical Healing recognizes the importance of incorporating culturally responsive and trauma-informed approaches in working with BIPOC and immigrant populations. This involves understanding the unique cultural and historical experiences of these communities and providing care that is sensitive to their cultural and linguistic needs. Empowering individuals and communities: Radical Healing seeks to empower individuals and communities to reclaim their power and agency. This involves providing education and resources that empower individuals and communities to advocate for their own needs and create change in their communities.
Radical Healing is a powerful framework for working with BIPOC and immigrant populations. By centering the experiences and voices of marginalized communities, addressing systemic oppression, incorporating culturally responsive and trauma-informed approaches, and empowering individuals and communities, Radical Healing offers a holistic approach to healing and social justice.
