PRIVATE PRACTICE CONSULT GROUP
To enhance the flow of information and optimize the overall experience, we're excited to
announce the creation of a closed private practice consult group for therapists. This group
will serve as a platform for sharing insights, discussing best practices, and addressing any
challenges or questions that arise. By fostering collaboration and communication within
the community, we aim to better meet the needs and requests that therapists have voiced..
Topics will include:
-Building a private practice
-Insurance panelling
-Practicing internationally/across state lines/licensing options
-Marketing
-Business and legal considerations of private practice
Brannon LaForce will be joining in leading this group. Brannon brings decades of
experience working in his own private practice, building and owning a group practice for
20 years and working internationally as a therapist in many countries. He brings outside
of the box thinking when it comes to being a therapist and we are excited to partner with
him in bringing you new options to what it might look to be a therapist.

INDIVIDUAL, COUPLES & GROUP COUNSELING
We offer two virtual groups. The first is a Dialectical Behavior Therapy group and it meets on Thursdays from 7 pm to 8:30 pm CST. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) has shown great promise in treating chronic depression and anxiety, trauma, and borderline personality disorder. The group offers instruction, opportunities to practice DBT skills and a time to process issues with other group members.
We also offer a group for men called The Forge. This group is for men who are seeking to address issues of person (identity), purpose and passion. It’s a powerful time of teaching, sharing and practical application. It meets on Wednesday nights from 7 pm to 8:30 pm. The fee for both groups is $50 per session. Each group meets for 12 weeks with the option to continuing for up to one year.
