Description

Private mental health practice is a vibrant and financially rewarding profession. And yet many who consider pursuing this path are misled by falsehoods that can result in costly mistakes - or avoidance of this fulfilling and worthwhile career. There is no need to market my practice, clients will find me. I learned everything I need to know about private practice in graduate school. I don't need an attorney or a CPA. Self-care is for students. But there is, you didn't, you do, and no, it most certainly is not. In If You Build It They Will Come, Jeffrey Barnett and Jeffrey Zimmerman dismantle common misconceptions relating to the preparation, management, and ethics of entering and running a successful private practice in the mental health professions. In addition to sharing accurate information to refute each "myth", the authors provide vital information on how to be successful in private practice, identifying common pitfalls and challenges and offering specific and practical strategies to address and move beyond the myth. Chapters conclude with recommended resources and readings. Blending decades of clinical experience with practical no-nonsense advice about running a practice, If You Build It They Will Come helps fill the gaps in practice development training. Trainees and recent graduates in clinical psychology, social work, and counseling will benefit from this book's personal, candid, and optimistic approach.

Reviews
Packed with practical and wise guidance, this book will be of great use to those just starting out as well as to seasoned practitioners. Barnett and Zimmerman explode 29 myths that have spelled disaster for so many who've tried to open, grow, and manage a practice. It's the best I've read on the topic. * Kenneth S. Pope, PhD, ABPP, Diplomate in Clinical Psychology *
What a superb contribution to the literature on building a private practice! Barnett and Zimmermann provide splendid strategies and guidance for the successful preparing, building, and managing of your private practice in a positive and optimistic manner. These authors are ethicists, and thus include guidance about maintaining an ethical practice including up-to-date and cutting edge information about documentation and record keeping. This comprehensive, conversational and easy-to-read volume is a treasure for beginning as well as seasoned private practitioners. * Melba J. T. Vasquez, Independent Practice, Austin, TX and Former President, American Psychological Association *
This book anticipates virtually all the questions about going into independent practice. It will reduce your anxiety and provide reasoned guidance to novice as well as early career practitioner. It is a 'must have.' * Dr. Robert J. Resnick, Former President of the Division of Independent Practice and Former President of the American Psychological Association *

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.
