	Working with Dr. Leif Smith and the Blueprint Program has been the best investment I've made for beginning my private practice! I started my practice, and within two weeks I began building my client case load. He understands what it means to be a compassionate therapist and a business owner in today’s market. It was with his coaching and encouragement throughout this process that allowed me to develop my own personal style while running a successful practice that meets the needs of my clients.

The PBC Blueprint Program is designed specifically for beginning therapists, counselors, social workers, or psychologists, but it is also applicable for those clinicians who are frustrated with the current growth of their practice. Enrollment in the program provides you with six months of unlimited access to me by phone, email, or in-person. Typically it begins with us setting goals and accountabilities for our time together. These goals will cover the basics of setting up a fee-for-service practice, and will incorporate your specific situational needs and preferences.

The only two requirements I have for enrollees in the PBC Blueprint Program are that you take responsibility for your own work towards your goals and that you are able to both receive and incorporate objective feedback. I will serve multiple roles in our work together, including teacher, exemplar, cheerleader, and advisor. I return all phone calls and emails from Blueprint Program members within hours, providing for quick access to solutions and advice. How you use this availability is entirely up to you. Some members call or email daily, while some do so weekly.

The fee for the six-month PBC Blueprint Program is $1,500. This fee separates those that are serious about building their practices from those that are "testing the waters," only to return to their day jobs. The fee is easily recouped via increased fees and clientele over the course of the program and beyond. There are two payment options: full fee due at commencement or half down and the remainder within 45 days. During this program you can at any time request a "freeze" for whatever reason. There are no refunds, as much of the progress is in your own hands.

Enrollment is limited to availability, and is on a first-come, first-serve basis. If there is a waiting list, you will be notified of this and where you fall on that list.
