🛑 Stop overpaying the IRS, legally and permanently.

97% of self employed therapy professionals overpay thousands in taxes every year, even with a CPA. If you’re setting aside “25 to 30% for taxes” you’re definitely overpaying!

The core mission of TNT is to equip self employed therapists to proactively manage and minimize their tax obligations.

All TNT products are TAX DEDUCTIBLE for 1099ers and self employed therapy professionals (LLCs and S-corps too) so save that receipt!

Wishing you minimum taxes and maximum living,

Hello there! 👋 I'm Carol, proud founder of Therapy Not Taxes (TNT) and “1099 Tax University” for self employed therapy professionals.

I am a licensed therapy practitioner with over 20 years of clinical experience and a graduate certification in Taxation. I founded Therapy Not Taxes and 1099 Tax University to help self-employed therapy professionals boost their tax literacy and minimize their tax burden. Im also the author of “150 Tax Deductions for Self-Employed Therapy Professionals”—the go-to resource for identifying the many deductions available to self-employed clinicians.

MY TAX STORY…
I jumped into my first contract job excited but ignorant about taxes. My attitude was “I’ll figure it out later”. Well, later came with a hefty tax bill of ~ $11,000. My CPA’s reaction: “It’s good you owe a lot, that means you made a lot”. Not very helpful!

After years of digging into the tax code on my own, I formalized my tax education by attending graduate school for taxation🎓 The grad courses covered individual, corporate and international tax matters. Armed with this knowledge, my mission has been to help therapists become tax savvy.

TAX MYTH: 30%
Amazon makes billions and only pays ~6% in federal taxes, yet 1099 therapists believe paying 30% in taxes is normal. FALSE! But neither CPAs, universities nor agencies educate us on taxes. The result is less income and more stress for the therapist. Right?!

TAX SAVINGS
So far TNT has helped self-employed therapy professionals all over the US save over $437,000 in taxes (1099ers, LLCs and S-corporations)

“I no longer dread tax time. With Carol’s guidance my tax anxiety is gone. I’m finally getting a refund instead of owing and my travel fund is growing“ -Melisa B. PTA

"After enrolling in the tax program, I gained insights that even my CPA couldn't provide. Thanks to Carol's guidance, I feel more in control of my taxes. Highly recommend to other 1099 therapists” - RM, OTR

Contract therapists, Know your rights!

As a contractor, you are self employed, meaning you are a business offering your services to another business/organization. A contractor is not an employee and your rights as a contractor are vastly different than those of an employee.

These rights derive from a combination of federal and state laws, regulations, and court decisions.

Knowing and affirming your contractor rights safeguards against potential exploitation (especially true for new grads) ensuring a mutually beneficial professional engagement. Unfamiliarity with these rights may lead to underpayment, extended working hours, unwanted tasks, and disagreements between the contractor and business/organization.

The infographic provides a general understanding of core rights held by contract therapists. These rights apply to OTs, OTAs, PT, PTAs and SLPs who are offering their professional services as independent contractors.

The Keep Gap metric

You might make 90k but only keep 54k after taxes. Closing this gap requires tax literacy on the part of the tax payer

“most discussions around economic inequality focus on income disparities—how much people earn compared to others. But we need to acknowledge not just income but retention. It’s not just about how much people earn, but about how much of that money they can actually keep after the financial system takes its cut.” -Carol Alvarez
