From SLPA to Lifestyle Practice Owner with Christine Zinn

Private Practice Success Stories

If you've been thinking about starting your private practice later in life or after you've worked as an SLP, this episode is for you! Today’s guest proves it’s never too late to make your dreams a reality.

Joining me is Christine Zinn, SLP and owner of The Speech School in Las Vegas, Nevada. I’ve known Christine throughout her time in the Start and Grow Your Private Practice Programs and have seen her amazing growth as a clinician and business owner.

After going to grad school much later in life than she had planned, and doing some serious soul searching, Christine realized private practice was a way of creating something for herself (instead of for a demanding employer!).

In this episode, Christine talks about going to grad school later on in her career and how she found the confidence to build a lifestyle private practice that reflects her professional and personal values.

Christine "Miss Chris" Zinn is a pediatric Speech Pathologist in the Las Vegas area. Her practice, The Speech School LLC, focuses on caregiver coaching/education, small groups for "Purposeful Play," and 1:1 treatment. She combines quality, evidence-based clinical practice with reassuring, practical communication strategies for our youngest communicators and their caregivers.

In Today's Episode, We Discuss:

• Finding the courage to go to grad school later on in life
• Overcoming limiting beliefs to follow your passion
• How imagining her “ideal day” helped her realize private practice was a good fit
• Adding Medicaid to her practice to serve more clients
• Christine’s support community of other private practice owners in the Las Vegas area
• Using what you want to move away from and what you want to move toward as a guide to decision-making in your career

Christine has built a business that perfectly matches her lifestyle and values! It’s never too late to realize what you want and to make it come to pass. I hope her story inspires you to take the next step toward what you want and try something new!
