Consultation Services for Therapists & Practice Owners

At Inara Counseling and Consulting, we offer personalized consultation services tailored to therapists who are just beginning their private practice journey, as well as seasoned professionals seeking growth, clarity, or a fresh perspective. Our goal is to help you build a practice that reflects your values, supports your clients, and sustains your professional well-being.

Whether you're starting from scratch or fine-tuning an existing model, our consultations offer the guidance and practical tools you need to succeed.

We help you navigate the essential components of running a practice, including:

• Choosing the right business structure (PLLC, S-Corp, etc.)
• Understanding legal and ethical responsibilities
• Setting up essential systems (EHRs, banking, scheduling, bookkeeping)
• Creating efficient workflows and client onboarding processes

Credentialing and billing can feel overwhelming—our expertise simplifies the process:

• Guidance on how to apply for insurance panels (BCBS, Aetna, UHC, Cigna, etc.)
• Step-by-step support with CAQH, NPPES, and Availity setup
• Best practices for verifying benefits and submitting claims
• Tips on managing denials, appeals, and reauthorizations

Standing out in a saturated market means knowing who you serve and how. We help you:

• Explore service expansions (e.g., workshops, supervision, evaluations)

Grow your visibility and attract ideal clients with:

• Custom branding guidance (logo, website, colors, tone)
• Profile optimization (Psychology Today, TherapyDen, etc.)
• Social media content ideas and ethical marketing practices
• Networking and referral-building strategies

We offer targeted clinical consultations to deepen your impact:

• Case consultations and treatment planning support
• Integrating trauma-informed, culturally responsive, or evidence-based approaches
• Guidance around documentation, assessments, and outcome tracking

Your physical space has a powerful impact on the therapeutic experience.

• Layout optimization for flow and functionality
• Furniture selection and placement that promotes emotional safety
• Lighting and color palettes aligned with calming and therapeutic principles
• Incorporating sensory elements and trauma-informed design practices
