Accepting New Affiliates for Fall 2026
Build the Practice You Imagined in Graduate School
Join TCFR as a Post-Graduate Affiliate and launch a relationship-specialty practice with clinical community, advance relational training, and the infrastructure to do your best work from day one.
Most new therapists graduate with big ambitions and the same haunting question: how do I actually build the practice I want?
A solo private practice is doable, but it's slow, lonely, and rarely steers naturally toward a specialty. Group practices can offer clients and a paycheck, but it comes at a price: high productivity, low pay, no specialized training, and you are not building your own reputation, professional identity, or equity in your private practice.
The TCFR affiliate model is a third path.
We offer post-graduate clinicians, licensed and pre-licensed associates, the chance to build a relationship-specialty practice inside a community that has been doing exactly this since 2014. You get the infrastructure, the clinical training, the referral network, the brand recognition, and the collegial relationships that most therapists spend a decade assembling on their own. Plus everything you do feeds your own career identity, reputation, and private practice. Your practice on our platform.
Relationship Therapy is a Speciality
It takes time, focus, and the right supervision and mentorship to build a successful relational practice. This is why we built this affiliate program for you. Being an Affiliate with us is not just a place to see clients. It is a professional home with structure, support, and community.
