Although there are many books on starting a business, and even some books on starting a therapy or counseling business, there are none that focus specifically on the special considerations of Marriage and Family Therapists thinking of going into private practice for themselves. This book was written to address these considerations. If you are a Marriage and Family Therapist going into private practice for the first time, this book is for you. If you are another type of mental health professional, you will also find much information that will be useful to you in setting up a private practice.
