The Truth About Starting a Nonprofit Counseling Practice in 2026

If you’re a therapist feeling burned out in agency systems, capped in private practice, or sitting on a mission you know you’re meant to build, this 2026 planning training is for you. Dr. Lauren Lawson (LMFT in California and Pennsylvania, AAMFT Approved Clinical Supervisor, and nonprofit group practice founder) breaks down whether starting a nonprofit should be one of your goals in 2026 without fear-based advice or “follow your passion” fluff. In this video, you’ll learn: ✅Why a nonprofit is a strategic vehicle for scaling mental health impact (and why it’s not for everyone) ✅The real questions therapists are asking about legality, salary, and control ✅Common myths about nonprofit revenue, paying yourself, and “losing control to the board” ✅How micro nonprofits can be simple, sustainable, and mission-driven ✅What readiness looks like for therapists in agencies, private practice owners, and clinicians who want a legacy beyond their caseload ✅Real-world considerations around 501(c)(3) timelines, approvals, and funding strategy (with a focus on local grants, corporate partnerships, and sustainable fundraising rather than relying on federal grants) This training is designed for therapists exploring nonprofit mental health models, sustainable practice structures, and community-accessible counseling programs in 2026.
