Your goals
Do you know what you could earn from the hours you choose to work if you go independent?
You’ve built the clinical experience. But in employment, your earning potential, hours and schedule are largely decided for you.
Working independently can change that.
You choose when you work, how much you work, the clients you work with and what you want your working life to look like.
And with Therapy Coalition managing the business around you, you can spend more of your working time doing the clinical work that actually earns you money.
Independent doesn’t have to mean doing it all alone.
See what supported independent practice could look like for you.

What would you do with greater earning potential?
Therapy Coalition can help clinicians spend more of their working week providing therapy, rather than losing hours to non-billable business tasks.
Meet Steve
Steve wanted to see what his experience could really earn him.
At his old job, Steve made $85,000 per year as an Occupational Therapist working 38 hours per week.
In the last 12 months, Steve made
$209,557
working an average of
27 hours per week
Steve is motivated to earn. He now has the freedom to work the hours he chooses in his independent practice to maximise his earnings.
But leaving the security of employment was a big decision.
With Therapy Coalition taking care of the business tasks around his practice, Steve had the support to make the move and can now focus more of his time on providing therapy rather than unpaid business admin.
* OT’s and all other supported allied health clinicians (excluding PBS) keep 75% of their $193.99 per/hr rate.
Meet Sophie
Sophie wanted to make the hours she can work really count.
Sophie’s a Behavioural Support Practitioner and a mum of two, wanting to earn some money whilst caring for her daughters
In the last 12 months, Sophie made
$100,650
working an average of
12 hours per week
For Sophie, earning potential isn’t about working more. It’s about being able to maximise her earnings in the limited time she has available.
She can choose hours that fit around her family, rather than paying for additional childcare just so she can fit into an employer’s schedule.
And because Therapy Coalition helps manage the business around her, Sophie has the confidence to work independently without feeling like she has to run every part of a solo practice herself.
* 70% for Positive Behaviour Support Practitioners $252.99 per/hr rate.
You’ve probably thought about it more than once
Maybe you’ve watched other clinicians go independent and wondered whether you could do it too.
You might be thinking:
- I want to earn more from the hours I work
- I’d like more control over my clients and schedule
- I’m tired of rigid workplace structures and management layers
- I’d love to work independently, but I don’t know where to begin
- I’m confident clinically, but not confident about running a business
- I’m worried about finding enough referrals
- I don’t want to spend my evenings doing invoicing and administration
- I’m worried the cost of setting up on my own
Setting up a solo practice can take months and cost thousands the traditional way.
We’ll have you up and running in days at a fraction of the cost.
Independent practice doesn’t have to mean doing everything alone
Therapy Coalition provides the business support that can make independent practice feel more achievable.
Rather than building every process, system and administrative function from scratch, you can access practical support designed specifically for the needs of allied health clinicians like you.
We support you with:
- Setting up the foundations of your practice
- Business systems and software configurations
- Administration, invoicing and compliance
- Managing enquiries and referrals
- Service agreements and templates
- Marketing guides and knowledge
- Reducing unpaid, non-clinical work
- Understanding what needs to happen next
- Give you back time for more billable hours
Did you know?
On average, independent practitioners earn more working 13hrs than they did in 40hrs as a full time employee.
