ENDORSEMENT
BJ's thorough, structured approach to starting a new
practice has helped me tremendously toward achieving my goal of
self-employment at my own practice. It does an excellent job of covering
the business side of opening your own practice, covering everything from
registering with the state to marketing yourself.

special thank you to Larry Gant Ph.D., LMSW and the University of
