startup nation, meet: Kelley Sonnenberg
Kelley Sonnenberg started in 2017 as Practice Solutions’ first billing specialist, working hands on with providers to manage their billing before moving into her current role as Billing Director, where she manages teams of billers and supervises all billing work.
Her experience as a biller gave her the knowledge, skills and passion to help expand the company, resulting in helping hundreds of mental health providers.
Kelley’s passion for travel led her to live her dream as a digital nomad for a year abroad while working for Practice Solutions.
She traveled to 22 countries in 2019, gaining an array of cultural experiences, and a unique perspective on global healthcare.
She hopes to empower providers to gain the confidence and knowledge to take on insurance billing.

As a therapist, I can tell you from experience that having the right EHR is an absolute lifeline. I recommend using TherapyNotes. They make billing, scheduling, notetaking, telehealth, and E-prescribing incredibly easy. Best of all, they offer live telephone support that's available 7 days a week.
You don’t have to take my word for it - Do your own research and see for yourself - TherapyNotes is the #1 highest rated EHR system available today, with 4.9 out of 5 stars on Trustpilot.com and on Google.
Go to Therapynotes.com and use the promo code PPS for a special 2-month trial, absolutely free.
If you’re coming from another EHR, TherapyNotes will import your demographic data quick and easy at no cost, so you can get started right away.
Trust me, don’t waste any more of your time, and try TherapyNotes.
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.”
