What are the 2022 predictions for SLPs starting private practices on the side?
Starting a private practice isn't what it used to be. Today's clinicians are starting private practices much quicker, easier, and cheaper than before. And they aren't guessing their way through it or getting stuck in analysis paralysis, they're following a tried-and-trude roadmap in order to save time, money, and frustration. There is no reason to reinvent the wheel or struggle to figure out how to start a private practice on your own. We've helped thousands of SLPs and OTs through this process and now we want to help you too. For a limited time, I'm offering a free copy of our private practice roadmap, specifically for SLPs and OTs who are curious about private practice and want to see what the journey looks like.

Hello and welcome to this episode of the Private Practice Success Stories Podcast. This is the first episode of the new year, and I always love to start off with some predictions for private practice in 2022. So if you want to know what I'm predicting and how you can be at the forefront of all of this knowledge and adjust accordingly, stay tuned. I'm Jenna Castro-Kasbon, speech language pathologist, business coach, and creator of the Start Your Private Practice System. And I'm on a mission to turn stuck SLPs into successful private practitioners. If you're tired of dealing with high productivity requirements, high caseload sizes, and low pay, it's time to take control of your professional, personal, and financial life and finally get the freedom, flexibility, and financial abundance that you deserve by working with private clients in your own practice.
Join me here each week as I share tips, best practices, and inspirational interviews on the Private Practice Success Stories podcast. If you're a private practitioner or one in the making, you're in the right place, so let's get started. All right, welcome back to the first episode of the new year of the Private Practice Success Stories Podcast. Are you ready to talk about my predictions for private practitioners in twenty twenty two? I do this episode every year because I love watching trends happen and predicting things. And I want the independent clinician audience to have a heads up so that you know where to place your energy in 2022 as we roll into the new year.
Why are SLPs motivated to launch private practices after COVID?
Now I'm not always right, but I have been helping SLPs and OTs start private practices since 2008. So I've been at this for a long time and I can see trends start to unfold. So let's start with my first prediction for 2022, which is that more and more SLPs will start private practices on the side as a way to take back control of their professional, personal, and financial lives. SLPs are overworked, overtired, and underpaid, and many are looking for a change, especially as wages stagnate or salaries are cut. Lots of SLPs have told me that COVID spurred them into starting to see private clients for a few reasons. For some, it is financial. It's because they didn't get raises or even got salary cuts and needed more money because other expenses have increased.
Another thing that is really frustrating to clinicians has to do with the workload at their regular jobs, which most people felt was too high before COVID, but is even higher now, especially with all of the employee turnover and increasing needs of the clients. And frankly, for a lot of clinicians, their priorities have shifted and they want to have more balance and more time to spend with their family or with themselves on self-care activities. I think that if this pandemic has taught us anything, it's about the value of time and people want more control over their time and how they spend it. And lastly, a lot of clinicians really want to focus on their favorite types of clients, whether it's working with autistic individuals, people with aphasia, dyslexia, hearing loss, AAC, feeding, and more.
A lot of SLPs spend a lot of time and money gathering CEUs and completing advanced training programs that in the end they aren't able to fully use through their employer, which
