This is a great opportunity to locate your practice in an accessible location in the Des Moines metro area. We are a collaborative and supportive team and often consult with each other on the "business" side of private practice and the clinical concerns that arise. We all have successfully launched private practices and enjoy helping other counselors get up and going.

If you want the autonomy of private practice, but the collaboration of a group, then this could be a great fit for you.
