private practice Coaching
that cuts through the overwhelm.
You know you’re meant for more than agency burnout.
You’ve got the skills, the heart, the vision. Now you just need a plan (and someone who gets both therapy and business) to help you make it real.
Hey there, future ceo!
If you’re reading this, you’re probably:
Sick of Googling “How to start a private therapy practice”
Stuck in analysis paralysis
Overwhelmed with all the “shoulds” and “to-do’s”
Scared of doing it wrong (and honestly, fair, there’s a lot of misinformation out there)
Excited, but unsure exactly where to start.
You’re smart. You’re skilled. You’ve got what it takes. But guess what?
They never taught us this stuff in grad school.
That’s where I come in. I’m Kyrsti Tam, CPA turned therapist, and I have helped hundreds of therapists just like you confidently go from “WTF am I doing” to “OMG I actually love my job again”.
I offer 1:1 coaching support so you can be empowered to confidently transition from burned out therapist to thriving, successful, and confident CEO of your business & life.
Check out my “Power Hour” and “Therapist to CEO” 8-Week Coaching Program below.

You’ve got options:
If you're brand-new and want a roadmap, I highly recommend starting with my Private Practice Bootcamp course. It’s packed with the foundational stuff most therapists never learned—finances, marketing, entity type, legal compliance, credentialing, and more. Start there and thank yourself later.

Choosing the right business entity & financial setup
Understanding what’s required to legally practice in your state
Setting up sustainable pricing and fees
Getting organized with budgeting, fees, systems, scheduling, and policies
