You work for yourself, pay $650/mo rent, and pocket the rest. No boss, no "cut." And my colleague and I give you all the support we can in helping you fill your schedule and navigate the trade. Our motivation? To have positive, skilled therapists in this building. And we have more referrals than we can take. That's it.​​

​

Two offices are available. Full details:​​​

​

Office

• 2 options, one larger than the picture on the poster, one smaller (we can send pictures)

• Affordable rent generous for area ($650)

• Convenient location for clients and therapist

• Roadside appeal with large signage

• Work with professionals interested in building a good vibe, not an empire

• Decorate to your liking

Advertising

• Therapists have been active in town for many years, and are the region's top specialists in their fields

• Office well-known in community with excellent reputation for 20+ years

• Your info can be incorporated into an existing website

• We get new referrals daily that we'll never get to. (It's 2:00pm 2/12/26 as I write, and I have turned down two referrals down already, not sure about Lisa.)

Practice

• Existing referral source and website

• Large unmet demand for therapists (for instance, I am the only in-person LMFT and trauma specialist in the region)

• Current therapists want a competent colleague for the many referrals they have to turn away (not sure about this one)

• Work as much as you want, make your own schedule

​

Licensure

• NC has laws very similar to TN. We can help

• The going rate for marriage therapy here, for instance, is $250 cash, so that makes licensure not as much of an issue

• Even charging a lot less, you stand to make far more than in a metropolitan area while you get your license, as cost of living is lower

Clinical training/mentoring

• LMFT (Alex) is on the faculty of the EMDR Institute of Dr. Francine Shapiro, and assists with trainings nationally. Also Gottman-trained.

• EMDRI Basic Training discount for those pursuing a license, and Alex can provide the consultation hours at a 50% rate (saves $600). He can also train farther than Basic, as an EMDRIA Approved Consultant.

• LCSW has close, personal connections to agencies in the community and referral sources, and is the go-to in the community for addictions and related groups.

Practice training/mentoring

• Therapists have existing relationships with billing agency and accountant

• Therapists have functional billing systems and can guide in business-related matters

• Therapists can walk through the insurance credentialing process when license is obtained

Community

• Vibrant and revitalized downtown, with a community feel in a small town, arts community, restaurants, "young people"

• Riverside community with beautiful riverfront and boating community

• Under an hour from the Outer Banks, some of the top-rated beaches in the world

• Only 45 minutes from "big city" life and shopping in Virginia Beach/Norfolk/Chesapeake

Family

• Highly affordable private schools if desired (with scholarships), top-rated public schools in surrounding area (a stretch), large home-schooling community

• Many different churches/denominations

• YMCA, arts, drama, and music programs for kids

• Sports opportunities, including rowing and sailing​
