Can you imagine walking into a turn-key private practice?

You run your business independently, determining your schedule, caseload, and your treatment approach.  

We take the back-end work and worry off of your hands, providing concierge administrative, marketing, and billing support.

PSP Provides:

• Marketing via the PSP website and our promotion of your business 

• Referrals based on your specialization and your customized screening criteria

  • Please note, the bulk of our incoming referrals are for adults needing treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and relationship support.  Clients are from all demographics, so being culturally competent and  is essential.  We have a referral base of teens and families that could easily grow with your interest, but very few requests for child/play therapy or more acute cases.

• Insurance billing as part of our in-network contracts with Premera, Regence, Aetna, FirstChoice, Kaiser PPO and HMO, and the BCBS network

• Opportunity to grow into leadership and mentoring positions

• An optional mentorship program where you get hours a week of additional support as well as the opportunity to make close and lasting friendships  - ask for more details about how our externship provides extra support as you enter the field

PSP vets the clinicians that it provides services for so that it only markets and provides referrals to clinicians that have a specialized level of training, that are committed to rigorous ongoing professional development, and that offer a high level of care and customer service to their patients.

Who contracts with PSP?

• Newly licensed clinicians who are overwhelmed by taking on the risk and marketing of starting a private practice

• Experienced clinicians who have run their own private practices, and appreciate from personal experience the time and value of not having to market or manage billing and insurance claims

• Clinicians who are transitioning out of mental health agencies, and looking for a supportive and collaborative transition

• Clinicians new to the Seattle area, who benefit from the PSP network of contacts and reduce the time and energy of establishing a new practice location

• Anyone who wants more  time to focus on their family life, friends, and hobbies, so that they are freed from networking, screening clients, and chasing insurance claims!

• Clinicians who want to focus on therapy with concierge support, and side-step the headache and risk of being an entrepreneur building a business

• Clinicians who prefer some connections and community over the isolation of private practice.
