You Didn't Spend $80k On A Degree To End Up With A Practice That Is Struggling To Book Clients
You’re an excellent therapist. And you became a therapist in the first place because you love the work — not because you wanted to spend nights Googling “how to make more money as a therapist.”
But let’s be honest…
You want a steady stream of private-pay clients.
You want to feel confident that your practice can support you (and your family).
You want to stop spinning your wheels with manic marketing that doesn’t work.
And of course you do. Who wouldn’t?
But You’ve Tried to Grow Your Practice… and It’s Not Working
You’ve posted on social media, maybe started a blog, and are asking ChatGPT 100 questions it doesn’t quite have a good answer to. Sometimes you get a client here or there, but it’s not enough to fill your caseload.
You’re exhausted from trying everything without a real plan. And the pressure of wondering where your next client will come from never seems to go away.
So if you are a…
New practice owner who opened your doors but can’t seem to get a steady flow of clients…
Experienced therapist who’s great in the therapy room but feels lost when it comes to marketing…
Burned-out clinician tired of hustling on social media with little to show for it…
Ambitious therapist ready to hit your first six-figure year but unsure how to actually make it happen…
Aspiring private practice owner who wants clients who value your work — and will pay private rates for it…
Dedicated professional who knows you’re meant for more than just “getting by” in your practice…
Trust me, I’ve been there + you’re in the right place…
Hi, I’m Danielle
Business coach for therapists. Busy mom. Enneagram 3.
And I know exactly what it feels like to be doing everything you can for your practice — and still wonder if it will ever be enough.
When I started my private practice at 28, I was drowning in student loan debt, making less than $35K at my agency job, and convinced that the only way to survive was to take insurance.
I didn’t believe I could ever fill a calendar with private-pay clients. (I was wrong).
As a mom, the weight of providing for my daughter while chasing a dream felt overwhelming. I was burned out, underpaid, and second-guessing if I could make private practice work.
But here’s what I want you to know: I figured it out.
I built a practice that gave me freedom — working the hours that work for my daughter’s schedule, serving clients I loved, and still having energy left for my family.
And I believe you can, too. In fact, I know you can because I’ve been coaching therapists like you on how to do this since 2020 (+ they have the results to match!).
Here’s how we do it…
There Are 3 Things Every Therapist Needs To Hit 6-Figures in Private Pay Clients
You don’t have to sacrifice your wellbeing (or your bank account) to succeed in private practice. With the right mindset, marketing, and systems, you can fill your caseload, grow your income, and finally feel confident in the practice you’ve worked so hard to build.
Mindset
We work on YOU before we work on your practice. We’ll tackle imposter syndrome, burnout, and the fear of being seen so you can show up with clarity and confidence. The mindset modules alone are life changing.
Marketing
No more guessing or trying to do “all the things.” You’ll learn simple, therapist-friendly marketing strategies — including SEO and AI tools — that help you consistently attract private-pay clients without overwhelm.
Systems
You're going to get full. So let's create systems now that support that. That way, you can scale sustainably, save time, and protect your energy for the work (and life) that matters most.
This is EXACTLY what I teach in Practice Accelerator, and it WORKS
“By this morning l've had three replies wanting to meet!
And, it didn't feel salesy at all...these are ppl that I genuinely feel I will align with, so it feels really organic. Anywho, just wanted to give a testimony that this strategy is working!”
Tara Quick
“I just had my ideal client find me, reach out to me, and book an appointment!!
She told me that my website content deeply resonated with her and she didn't know a therapist like me existed. This feels very affirming with all the work l've been putting in and at a time where I was experiencing self-doubting/fear-based thoughts!”
Tannaz Alagheband
“Update with my new stream line intake process it was a success.
Got a call from Psychology Today, sent them a formatted email with my link to Google calendar, I asked for 3 things : name insurance and little information why seeking therapy and for them to make the consult call. Actually worked!”

Plus – Meet Halle Thomas, LPC
Community Manager And Official Hype-Person
Halle Thomas, LPC knows exactly what it’s like to be where you are. She joined the Practice Accelerator back in 2020 and has been part of our community ever since — first as a student, and now as our Community Manager.
Halle runs her own thriving private practice, Chicory Counseling, where she offers anxiety therapy and therapy intensives to adults in Colorado and Oregon. Her work is centered on compassionate, culturally-informed care — and she brings that same heart into our community.

She’s a master at private practice systems and knows firsthand what it takes to build a business that supports both your clients and your life. Halle is here to remind you: you don’t have to do this alone, and yes — you really can build a practice that’s aligned with your values and your needs.
“The Accelerator course helped me overcome imposter syndrome and helped me to feel confident in becoming a business owner.”
Brooke Aymes
“I also feel SO much more prepared to start my PP. Danielle and Halle were great! I loved that content was delivered to us in bite sized pieces along the way instead of overwhelming amounts of information. Danielle and Halle were down to earth, relatable and truly know what they are doing. The Accelerator course has changed the way I think about my business, I highly recommend it!”
Stephanie Crouch
“This is a little bit of an unconventional win, but wanted to share I had my first instance of declining a client today because I didn't feel like we were a fit. (Something I was never allowed to do in my old group practice.) I could've taken this client on, but I had a feeling I would regret it later. I don't feel full in my practice yet and have had a couple other leads not end up working out the past few days, so it was hard to not lead with the scarcity mindset of just wanting to take on any client who wants to work with me. And the people pleaser in me also feels guilty about saying no to someone who sought me out for help. But I also trust that there's a therapist out there who is a better fit for them and their needs; I just empathize it may take time for them to find it. That doesn't mean it has to be me.”

You Have My Promise
The Practice Accelerator Is Different
There are plenty of business programs out there, but they aren’t designed to work on you as a human first, and a therapist second. In fact, most of them leave therapists feeling overwhelmed, unsupported, and no closer to filling their caseload. The Accelerator was built differently — with therapists in mind every step of the way.
The AI Advantage for Therapists
If you’re not using AI to grow your business, you’re invisible to nearly half of your potential clients.
38% of mental health searches now show AI-generated results — and that number is climbing toward 50%.
That’s why the Practice Accelerator gives you the AI + SEO strategies every therapist needs right now.
Inside, I’ll show you how to:
Show up in ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews when potential clients search for therapy.
Use DIY SEO and AI tools to make your practice easier to find (without hiring an expensive agency).
Future-proof your marketing so you can keep filling your caseload even as the digital landscape changes.
The bottom line: clients are already turning to AI to decide which therapist to work with. The Accelerator makes sure they can find you.
“This course is definitely worth your time and investment. Danielle and Halle are amazing teachers, know so much about building and filling a practice, and are kind, compassionate and supportive regardless of where you are in the journey.”
Jessica Frick
“It's a great high level and deep dive into areas around building your practice! The support is massive!”
Kim Lareau
“The accelerator helped me to boost my confidence to start my practice strong from the start. The content was helpful and clear and the community of women was inspiring and encouraging”

Let Me Answer Your Questions
I know you don’t take decisions like this lightly. That’s why I’ve answered the most common questions here — so you have all the clarity you need before enrolling.
-
Most therapists spend about 2–3 hours a week inside the Accelerator. That includes the course modules, group coaching calls, and accountability work. Everything is designed to fit into your busy schedule while still moving you forward.
-
The Practice Accelerator is designed for therapists who are already opened in private practice. But if you're getting ready to open, we have a bonus Practice Prep mini-course you'll start with inside to help you open your doors first and then fill your caseload. We recommend you join about 1 month before wanting to open.
-
Absolutely. Many therapists inside the Accelerator start with little to no marketing experience. The curriculum is step-by-step, and you’ll have plenty of support along the way.
-
The program is designed with female therapists in mind, but anyone who resonates with the content and community is welcome to join.
-
All group coaching calls are recorded and uploaded so you can watch the replay anytime. You’ll also have the Slack group and accountability partners to keep you supported between calls.
-
The Practice Accelerator combines business strategy with mindset work, therapist-specific SEO, and cutting-edge AI marketing training. Plus, you’ll have live coaching, accountability, and community support — not just a course you’re left to figure out on your own.
-
No — since this is a live group program with coaching and community support, we don’t offer refunds. We encourage you to be sure this program is right for you before joining, and we’re here to answer any questions before you enroll.
-
You’ll keep access to the course materials and workbook, and you’ll walk away with a clear marketing strategy, systems, and the confidence to keep growing your private practice long after the Accelerator ends.
