Coaching · Advantage Coaching LLC
The business side, minus the expensive lessons.
A free 15-minute phone call for California therapists, from pre-licensed to growing a group. Ask what you want to know and I’ll answer what I can right away. Nobody can help with everything, so I’ll say plainly when something is outside what I can help with.
- Free 15-minute call
- Nonclinical
- For California therapists
Why it’s freeSome tools I recommend pay me a referral reward. You get the same help either way.
What it is
From someone who runs a practice.
Grad school didn’t cover insurance contracts, Medi-Cal, billing, hiring, supervising associates, or payroll. I learned all of it running Advantage Mental Health, the expensive way. Advantage Coaching is where I pass it on, so you don’t have to pay to learn it.
It’s business education and support, nothing clinical. The free call is the whole starting point; there is no package to buy first.
Who it’s for
Five stages, one call to start.
Associate / pre-licensed
Plan the launch.
Hours, the exam, and a realistic timeline to your own practice.

Where to startHow it works
One call, straight answers.
Book the free call
Pick a 15-minute time and I call you. No cost and no package to buy.
Ask what you want to know
I answer what I can right there, point you to the free guide that covers it, and tell you plainly when something is outside what I can help with.
Decide what’s next
Use the free guides on your own, or ask about paid coaching or a website. Scope and fee are set in conversation.
Plainly
What I will and won’t do.
The boundaries are on the live site too.
- It’s not psychotherapy, clinical supervision, or legal, tax, or financial advice. Confirm those with an attorney, CPA, or the BBS.
- I won’t submit applications, call payers, or log into portals for you.
- No one can guarantee search rankings, including me.
- Never send patient information, passwords, or CAQH or PAVE exports.
- Current Advantage Mental Health employees and supervisees can’t book, to avoid a conflict of interest.
