why did we start
private practice together?

We are two private SLPs in two very different types of businesses with one big thing in common: we wanted colleagues, a community, and supports in building and growing our private practices... and we couldn't find it all in one place!
So we set about to build the thing we wanted and needed: a community with the supports Canadian allied health private practitioners deserve so you don't have to feel like you're going it alone!
We are excited to curate the things YOU are looking for to help you start or grow your private practice successfully. We're looking forward to bringing you information, resources, and supports from our broad networks of expert professionals, all while modelling as much transparency as possible.
You'll get to see real life private practice wins, tries, and even mistakes as we pull back the curtain and make transparent what once felt like coveted industry secrets!
