Beyond the Couch: Turning Your Behavioral Health Degree into Cash Without Losing Your Soul

Dr. Bryan Miller was a therapist for nine years before discovering he could have greater freedom (and income) with his profession if he was a consultant, rather than as a traditional therapist.

After reading his indispensable guide, you will know: - How to identify potential clients - How to develop proposals and get them funded - How to conduct and analyze projects - How to utilize the skills you already possess as a trained behavioral health professional - How to use basic research skills to make your work more efficient - How to manage a consulting business - How organizations and businesses think about the people who work for them As a consultant, you’ll be able to see fewer clients and, at the same time, make more money, and who doesn’t want that?
