Are you leaving thousands of dollars on the table because you're afraid to raise your therapy rates? If you're asking yourself when you should increase your fees, I'm telling you right now: you probably need to do it. The hardest part about raising therapy rates isn't figuring out the math. It's getting past the anxiety around having those conversations with your clients.

In today's episode, I'm breaking down exactly when to raise your therapy fees, how much to increase them by, and how to think through your risk tolerance so you can make a decision that actually works for your private practice. We're also talking about why this time of year is particularly strategic if you want to implement changes before 2026.

Plus, I'll walk you through different fee-raise strategies and show you how to stop overthinking this decision that's costing you money every single day.
