Did you know that you’re a CEO? You might call yourself something different…maybe “Founder,” “Owner,” “Director,” or even “President.” But when it comes down to it, you’re the CEO of your business whether you think of yourself that way or not. The trouble is that most of us start our practices with our “clinician” hats firmly in place, with little thought about how to be the architect of a successful business. This dilemma is particularly challenging as you start to grow. Here’s what we’ll talk about today:

  • What is a “CEO mindset”?
  • Why is a CEO mindset important?
  • How do you learn to employ a CEO mindset?
  • What are some concrete examples of CEO mindset behaviors in a testing practice?

About Dr. Jeremy Sharp

I’m a licensed psychologist and Clinical Director at the Colorado Center for Assessment & Counseling, a private practice that I founded in 2009 and grew to include 12 licensed clinicians, three clinicians in training, and a full administrative staff. I earned my undergraduate degree in Experimental Psychology from the University of South Carolina before getting my Master’s and PhD in Counseling Psychology from Colorado State University. These days, I specialize in psychological and neuropsychological evaluation with kids and adolescents.

As the host of the Testing Psychologist Podcast, I provide private practice consulting for psychologists and other mental health professionals who want to start or grow psychological testing services in their practices. I live in Fort Collins, Colorado with my wife (also a therapist) and two young kids.
