Supported Practice, LLC Information

Supported Practice was started by Heather Kramer Almquist, a therapist with over 15 years of private practice experience and a 20-year career in Human Resources and Business Administration. After hearing plenty of virtual-assistant horror stories from other therapists and witnessing the major need for a better way for skilled therapists to run their businesses without burning out, Supported Practice was born. “It’s the relationship that heals.” — Irvin Yalom As counselors, we know this to be true and witness it daily in therapy sessions. It is also true that if we do not maintain that real relationship with our clients with each touchpoint they have with our practice, we run the risk of losing that client. In our many years of experience, we have learned how to assess and respond to leads in ways that establish a therapeutic relationship with a counselor even before they meet. We know how essential an administrative professional is to maintain the bond between a client and a counselor—or between a client and a practice. Your practice. Our team of graduate counseling students will take care of it all: Phone, Voicemail, & Email Welcome Assessment & Intake Basic Benefits Verification Scheduling & Calendar Management EHR & Portal Utilization Basic Metrics Systems & Setup Management Premium Services (upon request)
