Private Practice Consulting For Wellbeing Practitioners

Starting a private practice is its own kind of overwhelm… and clinical training rarely prepares you for the business side.

Whether you want hands-on support building it all out with you, or want me to build it out for you, I can meet you where you're at.

Start with a free 15-minute consult to talk through where you are and what you need.

What Practitioners Are Saying

“I could not have got my private practice up and running so quick and efficiently without her support. Serena streamlined my processes with templates, reduced my workload substantially, and consulted with me every step of the way."

— Tenille Porter, Psychologist

"As an experienced and burnt-out therapist, I would hands down pay for this service over and over. It's such a time-saver. You keep working while Serena does the setup, and in what feels like no time, everything's done for you."

— Else M, Occupational Therapist

"Serena is the most incredible addition to my life. She has given me my life back. I have free time now and I am obscenely organised. Her boutique approach means she always gives her personal thought and touch to the work."

— Georgia-May, Psychologist

"This workbook saved me so much time. Instead of trying to create consent forms, intake paperwork, and GP letters from scratch, everything is already here and easy to adapt. Worth every dollar."

— K Thorne, Clinical Psychologist

"I'm a sole psychology practitioner and am incredibly relieved to have found Serena. She is efficient, patient, and highly knowledgeable. I routinely recommend her to my colleagues, particularly those just starting out."

— Josephine A, Clinical Psychologist

  • Not ready for a full consult? Start with the workbook

    If you'd rather work through things at your own pace first, I've created the Private Practice Foundations Workbook under Solara Consulting, covering everything from consent forms and intake paperwork to GP letters and onboarding checklists. It's designed to save you the hours of building these from scratch.

    Get The Workbook

  • Any health or wellbeing practitioner setting up a private practice for the first time, or wanting to fix or grow an existing one. This includes psychologists, speech pathologists, occupational therapists, counsellors, coaches, and healers, including those working with NDIS, WorkCover, WorkSafe, or EAP-funded clients.

  • Yes. I have a strong understanding of Medicare provider number requirements, AHPRA registration, and APS practice guidelines, alongside the broader operational side of running a psychology private practice.

  • Yes, I have direct experience supporting practitioners setting up and navigating NDIS, WorkCover, WorkSafe, and EAP registration, reporting, and billing requirements, as well as vocational rehabilitation program setup.

  • The initial 15-minute consult is free. From there, I'll recommend an approach based on what you need, whether that's a single project, ongoing support, or a full build.

  • This varies depending on what you're starting from and how much support you want. We'll map out a realistic timeline together during your free consult.
