I’m excited to welcome Sara Schreiber to the podcast today!
Sara Schreiber, LCSW, CGP, is the founder of Collaborative Minds Psychotherapy LLC, a group private practice in New Jersey and NYC that provides individual and group therapy to adolescents and adults. Sara is passionate about helping therapists start and run groups in their practices.
Sara has three children and attributes them to the reason she began running groups in the first place, so that she could see more clients in fewer hours, making herself more available to her family without compromising on her income.
Sara and I first connected when she joined PPA in October 2021. She was actually one of the very FIRST therapists in that program. It’s exciting to think about the major growth we’ve both had since then!
In today’s episode, we’re diving into how to earn 6-figures+ with group therapy.
Sara has built a THRIVING group practice with a full caseload. She’s brought in 6-figures+ by focusing on group therapy.
And she’s done all of this while having less than 1k Instagram followers too (proof that you don’t need to go viral to see success)!
Sara started in a grant-funded hospital position, but then moved into a group director role (all while pregnant with her second baby). Ultimately, she built up her OWN private-pay practice (no insurance panels!) that now brings in $250k+ per year!
Sara has learned a LOT along the way - especially when it comes to structuring and marketing her groups.
When it comes to pricing your group therapy, you should feel excited about what you’re selling.
You also need to make sure you’re not under-charging. Otherwise, it’s definitely not worth your time or effort!
Marketing your group therapy doesn’t have to be super complicated either. Start with your current clients, and lean into your referral network.
Building solid relationships with other therapists (both online and in-person) along the way will pay off tremendously!
Sara is truly a wealth of knowledge. Her story really shows what’s possible when you focus on community, connection, and serving your people well.
If you’re dreaming of scaling your income and considering group therapy, this is an episode you do NOT want to miss!!
