Step-by-Step Example

Real-World Use Cases

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Measuring caseload by client count instead of sessions per week. 30 biweekly clients generate 15 sessions/week; 20 weekly clients generate 20 sessions/week.

• Ignoring cancellation and no-show rates. A 15% rate on a 20-session week costs $2,250/month at $150/session.

• Using the same threshold for all populations. Complex trauma and crisis clients require significantly more clinical energy per session than adjustment or mild anxiety cases.

• Not counting documentation time. Each session requires 15–30 minutes of note writing that reduces effective daily capacity.
