Action Practice Building
Do you want to be a therapist? Do you want your practice to grow? Do you want to fill your caseload? Are you tired of feeling like your practice isn't where it should be? If so, this podcast is for you. I'm Nick Bognar, and my mission is to help therapists fill their caseloads and grow their dream practices by helping them develop the skills and mindset of a successful businessperson. In each episode, we'll cover one aspect of running a successful therapy practice—from marketing yourself effectively to finding clients in the right places—and then take actionable steps that will help you put those skills into practice immediately. We'll also have interviews with other therapists & entrepreneurs who have been where you are now: they've had their own struggles with filling their caseloads, but they also know what it takes to overcome those struggles and get back on track. Join us for each episode as we navigate together through the maze that is starting out as a therapist!
