About
Group Practice Network
Group Practice Network is a collaborative space designed by Canadian group practice owners, for Canadian group practice owners. We believe building a thriving, values-driven practice shouldn’t feel lonely or overwhelming. Our mission is to offer community, resources, and coaching so you can grow with confidence and purpose.
Who We Work With
Helping Canadian Therapists Turn Overwhelm into Opportunity.
We partner with Canadian therapists who are ready to transition from a solo private practice to running a group practice—whether you're just hiring your first associate or already leading a team. If you're committed to becoming a confident, fulfilled practice leader, you’re in the right place.
5 Takeaways That Will Transform Your Practice
Lead with Confidence
As a group practice owner, you are a leader. Together, we’ll cultivate your confidence to inspire, empower, and guide your team with clarity and purpose, shaping a practice that aligns with your long-term goals.
Create Work Flows that Work for You
If you know anything about me, you know that ‘systems’ are what I believe help a business thrive. I’ll help you create workflows and frameworks that don’t just organize your business but make it scalable and stress-free, so you can focus on what you do best.
Build Balance for Your Business
I want you to build a business that gives you freedom. I help you create a practice that not only supports your team’s wellness but also gives you the flexibility to live a balanced, fulfilling life outside of work.
Find Strength in Community
Building a group practice can feel isolating—but it doesn’t have to be. I’m committed to fostering a supportive, like-minded community where collaboration and connection flourish, ensuring you feel equipped and encouraged every step of the way.
Follow Your Vision, Leave Your Legacy
Authenticity is at the heart of every thriving business. By embracing and showcasing your unique vision, we’ll build a practice that reflects your values, resonates with your clients, and leaves a lasting impact on your community.

"It has been a dream to open a group practice and after finally feeling like the right time had come."
“I was so relieved to have found Ambition Alliance. My expectations of the course far surpassed the standard 'how to's' and 'checklists' I have come across prior. The course information, resources, support and guidance allowed me to really bring my dream to life and my group practice in motion. I truly feel I am on the road to success! Moreover, Lisa's authenticity and compassion conveyed in her teachings really provided a safe, non-judgemental space for questions, and encourage a personal group practice journey for each of the therapists."

“I have used a few coaches in the past and by far Lisa was a better fit.”
“She knows what she is doing, and has brought perspectives that I had not even considered. She holds me accountable in a safe and respectful but effective way. She challenged my status quo and has pushed me out of my comfort zone into huge growth. I am very thankful for the continued support to help me reach my professional goals.”
