PSA: Raising your fees is not a selfish move
And no, you don’t need to live in a high-income area or over-deliver in every session to “justify” your new fees.
It’s time to disengage from that sting of shame from your peers – wanting to be compensated fairly for your work is NOT a betrayal of your mission to help others.
And growing your private practice doesn’t have to mean stretching yourself thinner – taking on more clients – until burnout is inevitable.
If you’re struggling with the fear that asserting your worth will lead to isolation, to clients walking away, to standing alone in a field that’s supposed to be about connection…
Or that charging more means turning away those in need, pitting your financial well-being against your desire to serve…
It’s time to rethink your relationship with money.

Introducing the Lean In. MAKE BANK Academy
The only group program and community for licensed therapists and social workers that teaches you to charge your “someday” rates right away – while increasing the quality of care for your clients
Amy raised her fees while seeing her ideal clients
“I was seeing 6 or 7 clients a day, and I was exhausted. Now I’m off all insurance panels, and I charge $210 per session while continuing to serve folks in the Queer, BIPOC community.”
– Amy S., LMHC
Alisa went from charging $90/session to charging $200+/session – all while doing better clinical work
“I’ve known I’ve needed to do LIMB for years and finally took the plunge, and it is completely undoing me in the best way. I thought I was giving my clients the best care, and I’m realizing that if I’m not clear on my money stories that are actually linked to so many other things, then I’m not actually giving my clients the care they need.”
– Alisa T., LMFT
Jelisha overcame her negative self-talk, raised her fees, and moved into her dream home
After LIMB, I was no longer okay with “just getting by” – all the things – and the luxury – I ever wanted became my new baseline. Raising my fees has allowed me to be fully present and honest and be able to say, “No, this person isn’t a good fit for me,” and refer them elsewhere without anxiety. Having experienced such a HUGE shift in a short time translates into my clinical work and personal life.
– Jelisha G., LMHC

Hey, I’m Tiffany McLain, LMFT, and I teach you how to charge good money for the good work you do
Ever noticed how we talk about pretty much everything with our clients and colleagues – drug addiction, infidelity, sex, paraphilias, abuse, death, religion, STDs…
…except money?
What’s up with that?
The incredible expertise we bring as change makers has been deliberately “softened” – packaged and positioned as “community care.”
…And taking care of our community should be free or low-cost at best, right?
But let’s be real: how many times have you told yourself, “I don’t do this for money – I came here to help people” – only to feel resentful when you struggle to take a day off and see a client come back rested and sun-kissed after a tropical vacation?
We break that vicious cycle here.
Together, we can create real systemic change AND build a fulfilling life by changing how we think about money.

Because therapists with more money have more capacity to make change
No more googling, “How much do therapists make?” only to spiral into self-doubt without a clear path forward! You CAN build a successful private practice without burning yourself out – whether you’ve been at it for a few years or a few decades.
