About Our Approach
Our Mission
At Will-o-Wisp Consulting, my mission is to help therapists build private practices that feel sustainable, authentic, and free from burnout.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who are your services for?
I work with therapists all over the USA who are just starting out or getting ready to launch their private practice. My goal is to help you design a practice from the ground up, from systems and marketing to client management and finances, so you feel confident and supported as you take those first steps.
How do I know which option is right for me?
If you want a focused session to answer questions and get a brief overview of the process, the strategy session is a great starting point. If you want ongoing guidance, structured support, and accountability while building your practice from the ground up, the coaching package will give you everything you need to feel confident and organized.
How will your coaching help me in ways I can’t get from online resources?
Articles and templates can give you ideas, but they can’t answer your specific questions or guide you through the unique challenges of building your own practice. Every step/task comes with a laundry list of details and additional questions when you're creating a private practice. You don't know what you don't know. With coaching, you get personalized advice from someone who has been in your shoes, step-by-step guidance, and accountability to help you implement your plan confidently, so you actually move forward instead of getting stuck or second-guessing yourself.
About Me
My name is Gwen Dezelske ("deh-ZEL-ski")
Hi, I’m Gwen. I’m a licensed psychotherapist (MSW/LCSW) with 13 years of experience in the field, including 5+ running my own private practice. I've also held professional licenses & practiced in 7 different states.
​
I love teaching therapists how to work for themselves and build lives of freedom, confidence, and financial independence.
I know firsthand how overwhelming it can be to wear all the hats (clinician, marketer, administrator, accountant, CEO). I’m here to guide you so you don’t have to figure it out alone.
​
Originally from Minnesota and now in Colorado, I enjoy travel, reading, and self-discovery. I’m thrilled to share what I’ve learned so you can build a practice that supports both your career and your life, without burnout or guesswork.
