    Ep43: Dan King on why your group practice may be unsellable

    Group practice valuation is one of the most misunderstood topics in mental health, and the reality may be confronting. In this solo episode of Your Group Practice, Dan King breaks down a hard truth many practice owners avoid: your business might not be sellable in its current form. Drawing on years of conversations with practice owners and real transaction experience, Dan outlines the four core factors that determine whether a buyer or investor will seriously consider your practice or walk away. First, profitability. Buyers are not buying revenue; they are buying profit. Without a meaningful profit threshold (often around $400K post-owner salary), the business becomes difficult to justify operationally and financially. Second, clinician commitment. In a people-driven business, stability and engagement matter. Practices built on inconsistent or low-hour clinicians signal fragility rather than strength. Third, payer concentration. While relying on a single high-paying payer may boost short-term income, it introduces significant risk. Buyers heavily discount revenue streams that lack diversification. Finally, founder dependence. If the business cannot operate without you, it cannot scale, and it becomes far less attractive to any serious investor. This episode is a direct, practical guide for practice owners who want to build something that lasts—and something that can eventually be sold.

    Ep42: Dan King on the emotional cost of selling a group practice

    Selling a group practice is often framed as a financial milestone — but the real story is far more complex. In this solo episode of Your Group Practice, Dan King pulls back the curtain on what it actually takes to sell your practice — not just strategically, but emotionally. Drawing from his experience in mergers and acquisitions, Dan explores the hidden “price” that many owners underestimate when entering the sale process. Most sellers go through this journey for the first time, while buyers have done it dozens of times. That imbalance creates risk — not just financially, but psychologically. Dan explains why understanding the emotional side of the process is essential to making a clear, intentional decision. In this episode, you’ll learn:  Why money in a sale often becomes tied to your self-worth  How time and mental energy can quietly drain your capacity  The complexity of managing staff, relationships, and communication  What due diligence really demands from your workload  Why identity is the biggest shift most owners aren’t prepared for Selling a practice isn’t just a transaction — it’s a transformation. Dan reframes the process as a pivot point in your life and career, where clarity, self-awareness, and intention matter more than ever. If you’re considering selling your practice — now or in the future — this episode will help you approach the decision with open eyes.

    Ep41: Keith Myers on the business side of mental health practice

    The business side of mental health practice is one of the most overlooked yet essential skills for clinicians today. In this episode of Your Group Practice, Dan King speaks with Keith Myers, Associate Professor and Director of Clinical Training at Point Loma Nazarene University, about why business literacy is no longer optional for therapists. Keith shares a powerful perspective shaped by both academia and real-world clinical experience. He highlights a major gap: clinicians are trained to care for people, but not to run sustainable businesses. This disconnect often leads to financial stress, poor decision-making, and burnout, even for highly skilled therapists. Throughout the conversation, Keith breaks down the realities behind billing, insurance reimbursements, and the hidden costs of running a practice. He also explores the identity shift required to succeed, from clinician to clinician-entrepreneur, and why marketing, self-advocacy, and financial awareness are critical skills. In this episode, you’ll learn:  Why most therapists misunderstand the true cost of delivering care  How business education can transform long-term career success  The importance of developing a strong professional identity and niche  Practical lessons for group practice owners navigating growth and revenue challenges Keith also shares insights on working with veterans, emphasizing the need for culturally competent care and the role group practices can play in serving underserved populations. If you’re building or scaling a practice, this episode will challenge how you think about money, identity, and sustainability in mental health.

    Ep40: Dan King on defining your group practice identity for growth and retention

    Mission, vision, and values in group practice are not just abstract ideas; they are strategic levers that directly impact growth, recruitment, and long-term sustainability. In this solo episode of Your Group Practice, Dan King explores why the most successful practices take a clear stand on what they believe and who they serve. Drawing on real-world examples across the mental health landscape, Dan breaks down how practices with a defined identity consistently outperform those that rely on generic branding. Dan highlights how clarity of purpose creates alignment across every level of a practice from clinicians to clients, while also simplifying key decisions around hiring, marketing, and culture. In a crowded and competitive market, especially in self-pay environments, practices that articulate their values clearly gain a powerful advantage. In this episode, you’ll learn:  • Why defining your mission, vision, and values attracts aligned clinicians faster  • How clear positioning improves patient connection and therapeutic outcomes  • The role of purpose in reducing burnout and building resilient teams  • The potential risks of strong positioning and how to navigate them as you grow Dan also reflects on the tension between clarity and scalability, offering a nuanced perspective on how practices can evolve their identity without losing their core. If you’re building or leading a group practice, this episode will challenge you to move beyond generic messaging and define what you truly stand for.

    Ep39: Dan King on choosing a business partner in group practice

    Choosing a business partner in group practice is one of the most important — and most misunderstood — decisions founders make. In this solo episode of Your Group Practice, Dan King breaks down when you actually need a partner, and how to choose the right one if you do. Dan starts by challenging a common assumption: not every business needs a partner. If your goal is to build a lifestyle practice, you may not need one at all. But if your ambition is to build something larger, more complex, and enduring, the case for a partner becomes significantly stronger — especially in mental health, where complexity, regulation, and human impact are high. From there, Dan introduces a powerful guiding principle: would you marry this person? This question reframes partnership as a long-term, high-stakes commitment — one that requires deep trust, alignment, and resilience. He then outlines three critical criteria for choosing the right partner:  Complementary skill sets that expand decision-making capacity  Integrity you can trust at a gut level  Alignment on mission, vision, and long-term ambition This episode is a practical framework for group practice owners navigating growth decisions and considering partnership as a path forward.

    Ep38: Sean McColl on incremental growth strategies in mental health businesses

    Sustainable growth for mental health practices doesn’t come from radical change, it comes from consistent, intentional progress over time. In Episode 38 of Your Group Practice, Dan King speaks with Sean McColl, founder of Trusted Business Advisors, about how practice owners can break through growth plateaus and build scalable, resilient businesses without losing sight of their mission. Sean brings a unique perspective from both Fortune 500 leadership and entrepreneurial experience, helping business owners navigate the critical shift from doing everything themselves to leading strategically. He explains why many practices stall between $2M–$4M in revenue, and what it really takes to move beyond that stage. Throughout the conversation, Sean draws a powerful parallel between therapy and business growth: small, incremental changes applied consistently create the biggest long-term results. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why “what got you here won’t get you there” in practice growthHow delegation and prioritization unlock your next stage of scaleThe role of accountability in driving real business resultsPractical cost-cutting strategies that immediately improve profitabilityHow to build a foundation for sustainable, long-term growthSean also shares how strong advisor relationships, built on trust and accountability, can help business owners stay focused, overcome blind spots, and maintain momentum, even during challenging periods.

    Ep37: Ruth Mannschreck on working fewer hours and building a self-propelled practice

    Working fewer hours as a practice owner is a goal many clinicians dream about—but few believe is actually possible. In this episode of Your Group Practice, Dan King speaks with Ruth Mannschreck, founder of Shoreline Strategies, about the systems and leadership principles that allow healthcare practice owners to reclaim their time without sacrificing quality of care. Ruth’s journey began in dentistry. After building a successful practice, her life changed dramatically when her daughter experienced serious health complications that required extensive medical care. Faced with the need to dramatically reduce her clinical hours, Ruth and her team redesigned their entire business model—compressing five days of work into just 2.5 days while maintaining excellent patient care. What emerged from that experience became the foundation of her consulting work with healthcare practices. In this conversation, Ruth shares how practice owners can redesign systems, hiring strategies, and leadership approaches to create what she calls a self-propelled business. Key insights from this episode include: • Why mapping the client journey from the first phone call can transform operations • How hiring for soft skills like empathy and compassion improves patient care • Innovative interview techniques that reveal a candidate’s real interpersonal abilities • How generational differences in the workforce can unlock creativity instead of conflict • Why practice owners must clearly define outcomes before empowering teams to innovate Ruth also shares how practice owners can begin reducing their own workload by focusing on systems, team development, and emotional intelligence in client interactions.

    Ep36: Genevieve Bartuski on AI in therapy and human connection

    AI in therapy is advancing faster than most clinicians can keep up with, but what does that actually mean for group practice owners? In this episode of Your Group Practice, Dan King sits down with psychologist and MBA Genevieve Bartuski, whose background in forensic and cyberpsychology places her at the center of AI governance conversations. Together, they unpack the real role AI should play in mental health and where the profession must draw clear ethical boundaries. Genevieve makes one thing clear: AI will not replace therapists. Research consistently shows that the therapeutic alliance is the strongest predictor of positive outcomes. While AI can augment workflows, it cannot replicate empathy, clinical judgment, or the nuanced human relationship at the core of therapy. Here’s what you’ll take away: • Why AI hallucinations and “drift” pose serious accountability risks  • Where AI can responsibly support group practices (billing, documentation, compliance)  • The ethical concerns around AI note-takers and session recording  • How AI could bridge mental health access gaps with strong human oversight  • The psychological risks of clients developing emotional reliance on AI For practice owners navigating rapid technological change, this episode provides a grounded framework: protect the client relationship, leverage AI to improve backend efficiency, and approach innovation with critical thinking not blind adoption.
