Diversify Beyond the Chair™
Every 1:1 practice has a ceiling. Where's yours?
The Road Beyond the Chair™ is how you get past it.
Diversify Beyond the Chair™ helps therapists, helpers and healers build income, impact and freedom beyond 1:1 sessions, one stop at a time.

You don't have to do this alone.
Which ceiling are you hitting?
When all of your work happens one session at a time, the ceiling can show up in a lot of ways:
- Income"I'm fully booked, and I still can't earn more without adding more clients."
- Capacity"I'm making good money, but only by seeing more clients than I can sustain."
- Freedom"My calendar belongs to my clients. Evenings, time off, even a sick day all cost me income."
- Creativity"I have ideas I never get to use. Same room, same 50 minutes, every week."
- Connection"I love my clients, but I'm lonely in this work."
- Impact"I know my work could reach so many more people than I can see one at a time."
- Growth"I've plateaued, and I miss having a learning edge."
Most of us are hitting more than one. And if you're anything like me, the one you say out loud isn't always the one that matters most.
That's the ceiling. Here's the road beyond it.

You won't be traveling alone
Some of the most powerful moments in my own journey came from hearing other therapists' stories: what worked, what didn't, and how they figured it out along the way. That's why stories and community show up at every stop on this road.
You don't have to do this alone. Wherever you start, you'll find fellow travelers who get it, because they're on the road too.
Hey, I'm Rachel!
I'm Rachel Bentley, MA, LPC, founder of COR Counseling, a Michigan group practice, and Next Level Private Practice, where I help therapist entrepreneurs start, grow and diversify their businesses.
Feeling isolated as a group practice owner is what started me down my own road beyond the chair. It led to a community for therapist entrepreneurs, consulting, the Next Level Private Practice Summit and the Diversify Beyond the Chair™ Retreat. I'm still on the road, and I'd love to travel it with you.
Ready to find your ceiling?
It takes about 3 minutes, it's free, and your numbers stay private. It's the first stop on the road.
I am rooting for you!
