Group Practice → Private Practice · Washington State

Leaving group practice feels risky.

But pausing private practice just costs more. Here's how the move is actually made — for you and your clients.

Can your clients actually follow you?
Washington law has a real answer here — and most clinicians get it wrong. A non-solicitation clause sounds like it should block you, but Washington narrowly limits what it can actually restrict. We break down exactly where the line is, so you know what you can say to clients and when, before you make any move.

A story we've seen more than once

George spent three years as a Licensed Associate, then three more years as a Fully Licensed Clinician — still capped at his group practice's $50-an-hour rate, while referrals kept landing in his name.

He didn't quit in a day. With Eagleview Collaborative handling the admin, billing, and contracting, he built his private practice in parallel across four months — payer contracts activating one by one, a handful of clients transitioning at a time — while still seeing his group practice caseload.

George isn't working more in private practice. He's just earning more.
Group practice · 25 sessions/wk × $50/hr$60,000/yr
Private practice · 25 sessions/wk × $125/hr avg$150,000/yr
+$58,725/yr
more than group practice — same caseload size, after self-employment taxes, admin, rent, and software
