An 8-week business coaching program for trauma therapists who want to redesign or expand their practices.ย
Redesign your practice with Kristen and a supportive community of colleagues who understand the work.
Transform Your Trauma Therapy Practice (TYTTP) is an 8-week business coaching program for licensed trauma therapists in private practice, led by Kristen Wold, LMFT.
The next cohort starts July 10, 2026.
Fridays, 1โ3 pm ET. Eight sessions: July 10 | 17 | 24 | 31 | August 7 | 14 | 21 | 28.
Your practice isn't working for you anymore.
You walk alongside your clients as they heal from the most vulnerable of human experiences. You take that seriously. It's why you've spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours getting better at this...advanced certifications, consultation hours, and so many trainings that you never have to check your CE status. Other clinicians refer the clients they don't feel capable of helping to you - because they trust and respect you.
But somewhere along the way, something has stopped working for you.
Maybe you're starting to question whether this is sustainable. Maybe you're closer to burnout than you want to admit. Maybe you're worried that you're not as effective in the room as you used to be.
You may be quietly asking:
"How much longer can I keep this pace?"
"I love this work, but it's not feeling sustainable anymore."
"Is it wrong to want more time, more income, more ease?"
You're not alone. And you're not wrong for wanting that.
You are not burned out because you don't care. You're burned out because you do.
"This program has energized me and made me re-engage with my work in a way I haven't felt since I started my practice a decade ago. I feel like I'm building the practice I always wanted."

What's actually true:
The landscape is changing. We don't know exactly how AI will reshape our industry, but we know it will.ย And any changes to our industry will inevitably impact trauma therapists in private practice.
It's time to look honestly at your business and how it's structured.ย More importantly, it's time to look at how you want to contribute to the field of trauma therapy.ย The desire to evolve your practice is one of the most common signals of a clinician who has grown into their expertise and is ready to use it differently.
Diversifying your income is one way to make this work sustainable for the long-term.
A note from Kristen
I know how this feels. I've been there, and so have most of the therapists I work with.
I redesigned my own practice when life demanded I work less and make more. Over the next few years I added consultation, teaching, and intensives. Along the way I worked through the fears, named the stories I was carrying about worth and money, and kept expanding my business education.
Then my friend and longtime colleague Laura asked me to coach her with expanding her business by adding intensives.
After a few months of working together, she encouraged me to share my business knowledge with other trauma therapists. She said, "we need the support of someone who understands our business." This program and Business Academy for Trauma Therapists came out of that conversation.
I'm not a guru. I don't know what's best for your business. You do. What I do know is what most trauma therapists are missing structurally, and the stories most of us are carrying about money, worth, and what's allowed for a therapist. If you allow me to be a part of your growth, I'll share with you what I see, and I'll support you in making the best decision for your circumstances.
Why this program. Why now.
You cannot take the trauma out of business training for trauma therapists.
Business conversations with therapists who are trained to work with trauma are different. They touch on clinical complexity, ethical weight, the particular way our clients' needs can pull on our own boundaries, the money shame that runs deep in this profession, and the very specific challenge of pricing specialized expertise that took years to build.
Generic business advice doesn't account for any of that. I haven't found another program that does.
TYTTP was built for exactly what you're navigating. Not therapists in general. Trauma therapists specifically.
Save Your Spot โWhat's included
This is an 8-week group coaching cohort. It runs with a maximum of 20 people, intentionally small so the work stays real and the community stays close.
Group Coaching
8 live group coaching callsย
2 hours each, covering business owner identity, rate-setting, income stream development, marketing, and building your online presence.
Voxer Access
Voxer access to Kristen
Direct access to Kristen throughout the program so you keep moving between sessions instead of waiting for the next call.
Community
Cohort community
A community of trauma therapists doing this work alongside you, who understand it and won't let you stay stuck.
Bonuses included with enrollment:
The Foundations Digital Course ($395 value).
The conceptual backbone of everything we do together. Yours to keep for as long as the program is offered. Note: I have applied for NBCC CE credits for the Foundations course. I can't confirm approval yet, but if credits are granted, they will be yours when you complete the digital portion.
Website Copywriting Tool ($595 value).
Built specifically for trauma therapists. You walk through a guided process that produces copy connected to the clients you help and the way you help them, guided by your therapeutic superpower, so the copy is unique to you. The output is block-level copy for your home page, about, FAQ and contact pages. You leave with the foundation of your website built. Access is included during the 8 weeks.
What other trauma therapists are saying:
What we cover together:
The program moves through two arcs. The first four weeks are about you as a business owner: where you are, what your work is worth, and what you're going to build. The second four weeks are about your clinical identity and your presence: who you are in the room, who you most want to serve, and how to build a website that actually reflects that.
Week 1: You are a business owner.
The moment you opened a private practice, you became a business owner. This week is about claiming that identity intentionally. We look at why trauma therapists resist it, what the shifting landscape of mental health care means for your practice right now, and what becomes possible when you start making decisions from a business owner lens instead of a purely clinical one.
Week 2: Assess your foundation.
Before you add anything new, get clear on where you actually are. We use the Practice Foundations Assessment to take an honest look at your current practice across financials, operations, time management, professional development, and marketing. Most trauma therapists are strong in some areas and underdeveloped in others. This week you find out which is which, so you're building on solid ground.
Week 3: Understanding your value.
We look at why trauma therapists are systematically undercompensated (it's structural, not personal), how to calculate rates that reflect your actual training and expertise, and how to think about pricing for new offerings like intensives, consultation, and groups. You'll do the math. You may be surprised by what comes out.
Week 4: Building your plan.
From assessment to action. You'll identify one clear area of focus for practice evolution and build a realistic 90-day plan to move it forward. Not a list of everything that could happen. One direction, with actual first steps and protected time on your calendar to do the work.
Week 5: Your therapeutic superpower.
Most therapists have never named what makes them unique in the therapy room. Not certifications. The thing that makes you a perfect fit for the clients you love working with. This week you find it. It becomes the foundation for everything that follows: your marketing, your website, your positioning. You can't build a practice around your strengths until you can name them.
Week 6: Who you help.
The client you help is not a diagnosis. It's a person. This week you identify who you most want to work with, what's happening in their life when they finally reach out, and the language they use to describe their own struggle before they have therapy vocabulary. That language belongs on your website. We find it together.
Week 7: Bringing it together. Your website.
Your website is not a task to check off. It's the first step in the therapeutic relationship with your ideal client. This week you apply everything from Weeks 5 and 6 to the three essential pages every practice website needs: home page, about page, and contact page. You'll use the website development tool to generate a working draft. Not a blank page. An actual draft.
Week 8: Graduation and next steps.te.
No new content this week. This session is for reflection, celebration, and forward planning. You'll name what has shifted, share what surprised you, and build your 90-day plan for what comes next. Participants interested in continued support after the program will hear about the Graduate Membership.
What you leave with
By the end of 8 weeks you will have built the following during the program:
- Clarity on your business model, whether that includes expansion into intensives, consultation, groups, courses, or strategic foundational changes to your current model
- A concrete 90-day plan with actual next steps, not just ideas
- Confidence in your rates and language to communicate your value
- A working draft of your website copy (home, about, FAQ and contact pages)
- A community of trauma therapists who understand this work and won't let you stay stuck
- Momentum on the thing you've been putting off for years
The investment is $1,297.
I want to be direct about this, because I know what you're thinking.ย You've already spent significantly on training that was required. EMDR, IFS, somatic work, advanced certifications. And you're used to investments that don't directly translate into income.ย This one is designed to.
The work we do together is specifically aimed at helping you understand what your expertise is worth, structure your practice to reflect that, and build income streams that don't require you to see more clients to earn more. The goal is not another credential. It's a practice that actually sustains you.
This cohort is capped at 20. When it's full, it's full.
Two ways to enroll:
Both options include everything above: 8 live calls, the Foundations Digital Course, the Website Copywriting Tool, Voxer access, and the cohort community.
Our 14-day guarantee
If you join and realize within the first 14 days that this isn't the right fit, email me at kristen@curioustraumatherapist.com and I'll refund your investment. No hoops, no guilt, no hard feelings.
That gives you two full weeks to explore the Foundations Digital Course, show up to the first two calls, and get a real feel for the program and the cohort. If it's not right, I'd rather you know early.
Want to keep going after Week 8?
Graduates are invited into the Graduate Membership, a $50/month ongoing container for niche refinement, website development, income stream growth, and community accountability. We meet weekly on Mondays from 11 am to noon ET and once a quarter for a two-hour deep dive. Open to coaching program graduates only.
The decision in front of you
You can spend another year inside a practice structure someone else designed. Insurance rates set by someone else. A caseload that eats your weekends. The offer you've been thinking about for two years still un-launched. Watching the slow exit so many talented therapists are already making.
Or you can spend the next 8 weeks redesigning your practice with Kristen and a community of trauma therapists doing the same work, alongside you, in real time.
Both are real choices. Only one of them gets you a business you have agency over.
This program is for you if
You've been thinking about expanding your income but don't know where to start. You want to offer intensives, consultation, groups, or other services beyond traditional therapy. You're ready to look honestly at your rates and what they reflect. You want support and accountability from someone who understands trauma work specifically, in a community of peers who do too.
This program is not for therapists just entering the field. It's for experienced trauma therapists who are ready to stop fitting their business into the margins of their clinical life.
