Startup Nation, there are a lot of perks of being a private practice owner. Doing your own bookkeeping and taxes is not one of them.
“How much should I pay myself? How much should I save for taxes? Do I have to pay quarterly taxes?”
These are questions we hear from therapists all the time…
That’s why we’ve partnered with the folks at Heard to help you manage your private practice finances. On average, Heard saves therapists 60 hours per year in financial record-keeping and $5,000 in taxes. How many more clients could you see if you got 60 hours back?
And when you join Heard, you get access to a team of tax pros who will guide you on your journey as you build your business. With peace of mind about your business finances, you can put more energy into client care, where it matters most.

Directories can be a good source for new clients, but which directories are really worth it? Well, according to an extensive review of therapist directories by VeryWellMind, more than 90% of therapists recommend Mental Health Match.
We love Mental Health Match because they understand the therapeutic relationship starts before a client contacts you. They’ve set up their directory to give clients a sense of confidence in you as a clinician and connection with you as a person. Their smart matching technology makes sure you only hear from clients who are a good fit for your practice. And referrals come with insightful information about the client, their presenting problems, and what they seek in a therapist.
With over ten thousand clients coming every week, Mental Health Match is a great way to find the clients you want.
Eren Moore, a New Jersey therapist, said, “I have been getting almost 2 referrals a week from Mental Health Match and I like their ability to match me with my niche clients. These clients reflect my skill sets and they come ready and open to the therapy process. This is energizing for both the therapist and clients.”
We couldn’t agree more. And now, you can try Mental Health Match for free for 90 days. Just go to mentalhealthmatch.com, and use referral code “Startup.”
