The Traveling Therapist Podcast

165. Starting a Group Practice as a Therapist with Rachel Bentley

Kym Tolson Episode 165

Starting a group practice as a therapist can feel like a huge leap—but it might be the exact next step you need to create more freedom, alignment, and impact. If you’ve ever felt limited by solo work or craved a bigger vision for your practice, this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I talk with Rachel Bentley, therapist, coach, and founder of Next Level Private Practice. Rachel shares how starting a group practice as a therapist changed everything for her—giving her more time, space, and the ability to help other clinicians grow. We dive into her journey, the mindset shifts it took, and why this move has supported the travel-friendly lifestyle she now leads.

In This Episode, We Explore…

  • Why Rachel decided to transition from solo to group practice
  • The common fears therapists face when expanding—and how to move through them
  • How group practice can support a life of travel and flexibility
  • What it means to build a values-aligned business as a therapist
  • How Rachel now helps others do the same through coaching and consulting
