hey there, i'm Kelley Stevens, LMFT
Your Private Practice Mentor
Before I launched my own private practice, I remember how overwhelming it felt to even get started. There were so many moving pieces—niche, fees, paperwork, referrals—and zero clear guidance on how to actually bring it all together.
That’s exactly why I created this checklist.
It breaks down the process into nine essential steps that walk you from “Where do I even begin?” to “I know what to do next.” It’s the kind of clarity I wish I had when I was first figuring it all out—and it’s here to help you focus, get organized, and build a solid foundation without spinning your wheels.
Whether you’re planning your exit from agency work or already dipping your toes into private practice, this checklist was made for you.
Let’s simplify the start-up phase—so you can stop second-guessing and start moving forward.
