If you’ve ever thought, “I’m great with clients… but the admin and keeping up with notes is eating my life”, you’re not alone.
Generally, we build a private practice on instinct at first. You get clients. You do the work, keep the plates spinning. And then one day you realise the “business side” of therapy has quietly expanded into a second job!!!!
And it’s not that you can’t do it… it’s that it starts taking over your evenings, your weekends, and the headspace that’s meant to be for you.
That’s why I created Therapists Corner: most of us were never taught how to run the business side of private practice, and doing it alone can feel surprisingly heavy. If you want ongoing support with the practical stuff (systems, fees, boundaries, marketing, confidence, ethical dilemmas) you can join Here
I’ll send you tools, templates and real-world tips to make private practice feel simpler and more sustainable. I write weekly posts like this to keep you up to date, so you can focus on what you love doing your clinical work.

I’m sharing this with everyone
Because I care about therapists building businesses that care for them back.
And often, the thing that changes everything isn’t more marketing, more training, or another push for productivity…
It’s simply having a system that:
reduces mental load
keeps you organised
supports your boundaries and makes the business side feel manageable again
People often ask me: “What else do you use a practice management tool for?”
And my answer is always the same: I use it for everything.
I keep my to-do list in there so it tracks what needs to be done.
I like that everything is in one place and that I’m not juggling notes, reminders, and admin across multiple apps (or bits of paper… or my brain).
If you’re running a full-time private practice and you’re not using a practice management tool already, I genuinely don’t know how you’re doing it without admin creeping into every corner of your week.
If you give it a try, hit reply (or comment) and tell me how you get on. I always love hearing what’s genuinely useful in real-life private practice.
