Meet Kelsey Blahnik, Executive Director of The And Way Therapy

With extensive experience in both the private and public sectors, and having worked as part of a team and independently, I understand the unique challenges that mental health professionals face. The journey can be both isolating and overwhelming, whether you’re just starting out in private practice or are an established practitioner looking to expand or pivot your business. I'm here to provide the support you need, offering guidance and insight tailored to your specific stage in your practice.

My journey in various roles has equipped me with the insight and experience to guide others through their own professional paths. Let’s work together to navigate your path forward with confidence and clarity.

My mission is to provide meaningful support to practitioners at every stage of their career. If you're just launching your private practice, I can help you navigate the complexities of setting up and growing your business in an ethical and HIPAA compliant fashion that aligns with your values and financial needs. For those who have been at it for a while, I offer strategic guidance to help you expand, refine your services, or make necessary changes to achieve your goals.

I believe in a collaborative approach, where your vision and aspirations are at the forefront. Together, we’ll create a tailored plan that addresses your unique needs, ensuring that you not only grow but thrive in your practice. I follow up every consultation session with many tailored resources and referrals. Let’s work hand in hand to turn your challenges into opportunities, and your goals into reality.

Private Practice Consultation

Support for every step of your private practice journey

  • Are you hoping to start a private practice and feeling overwhelmed or unsure of where to start? I'm here to provide guidance and mentorship on building your private practice.

  • Are you looking to make some changes to your practice, such as switching EHRs or adding an insurance panel and want some guidance in the process? Or are you looking for someone to talk through your current practice policies to see if there's anything you could be doing to make your life easier? I'd love to help!

  • Ready to take the next step in your practice by expanding and aren't sure how to manage things like payroll or supervisory billing? Or maybe you've already expanded and are looking for support as you grow into your next phase. I'd love to guide you in this exciting next step!

  • Do you have an idea of who your ideal client is but struggle to find them? Or are you needing someone to brainstorm with about what type of clients are the best fit for you? I'd love to sit down with you and help you find more of the clients that bring you the most fulfillment in your practice.

Clinical Consultation

Supporting & enhancing your clinical knowledge

  • Are you looking for guidance on how to blend EMDR and IFS together to best support your client's needs?

    I provide guidance for therapists on how to effectively blend these two approaches to improve your client's outcomes. Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your skills, I offer personalized support to help you use these modalities together.

  • Whether you have a client with OCD you need to consult with an expert on, or are you looking to expand your clinical knowledge about working with clients with OCD, I'd love to share my expertise with you.

Consultation Costs

I offer individual consultations for mental health professionals at a rate of $150 per 50-minute session. These sessions are more than just a one-time conversation; they include follow-up support with a personalized list of resources and referrals to services that can benefit your practice.
