All Things Private Practice Podcast Episode 114: How To Expand Your Private Practice Across State Lines [featuring Candace Morey]
Expanding your Private Practice into multiple states can feel tricky to navigate. How do you market to new audiences? How do you navigate the different tax and business laws? How do you attract new staff, especially if you're not physically present?
During this episode, Candace Morey and I talk about all of this and more, so that you can confidently grow your practices and expand your vision.
3 Key Takeaways:
- Hiring the Right Fit: Candace emphasizes the importance of evaluating both candidates and the practice during the interview process to ensure a good working relationship.
- Flexibility and Creativity in Business Expansion: We discussed the logistics of expanding into new states, overcoming regulatory roadblocks, and thinking outside the box to navigate challenges encountered in business expansion. Being creative and flexible is key to success.
- Prioritizing People Over Profit: Candace and I agree that creating a positive work environment and supporting employees' aspirations and needs is crucial. By focusing on transparency, authenticity, and prioritizing people over profit, we attract and retain top talent for our practices.
A Note From Candace:
I’m Candace and I like to keep it real.
I’ve worked tons of different jobs in several industries and have seen firsthand the commonalities of burned-out employees—myself included. Researching burnout and bearing witness to broken systems, it was a simple conclusion that continuing to participate in this field wouldn't be sustainable at this pace and in these environments. Increasing personal flexibility in my life while improving the lives of community members were driving factors in creating 413 Theraworks. Downshifting from overdrive took some time, but once I hit my stride, it became my mission to offer this opportunity to other providers in my field. Building a space for other therapists to actually want to show up and do this incredibly hard work every day with compassion, laughs, and sometimes tears are what keeps me going. Ensuring 413 Theraworks employees continued to feel valued, heard, safe, and supported is my priority.
You can also find me teaching others how to talk about hard things, confront limiting beliefs head-on, and show up authentically across all roles in business and life.
I’m board-certified as a licensed mental health counselor in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and a licensed clinical mental health counselor in the state of Vermont.

It's Patrick. Some of you may know that I own a group therapy practice in North Carolina, Resilient Mind Counseling. We specialize in supporting the Neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, and Black, Brown, and Asian communities online and across North Carolina. We also have limited in-person openings at our offices in Asheville and Cary.

All of our therapists have lived experience and identify as AuDHD, Autistic, or ADHD. Our team of affirming therapists offers a safe, anti-racist, anti-oppressive, inclusive, and accessible space where you can show up exactly as you are—no masking, no judgment, and no need to make eye contact, just real connection and healing.
