Built for Therapists Who Want Clarity—Not Complexity

Fortitude provides tax preparation, proactive tax planning, full-service bookkeeping, and Done-With-You Bookkeeping for therapists in private practice. We can also help with issues such as S corporation elections, reasonable compensation, payroll setup, and other tax and business questions when they’re relevant to your situation.

You don’t have to use every service. We’ll help you choose the support that makes sense for your practice today, and that support can change as your needs change.

No. You can work with Fortitude for tax preparation or planning without using our bookkeeping services.

You can maintain your own books, work with another bookkeeper, or use Fortitude for bookkeeping if that’s the right fit. We don’t require you to purchase unrelated services simply to work with us.

Yes. If your practice is straightforward and you’d like to learn to manage your own books, our Done-With-You Bookkeeping program was created specifically for that.

You handle the routine bookkeeping while we provide professional reviews, reconciliations, feedback, and monthly office hours to help you learn. The goal is to build the skills and confidence to understand and manage your own practice books—not to turn you into an accountant.

Not every therapist needs ongoing tax planning. If your situation is relatively stable and you’re comfortable managing your tax cash flow, professional tax preparation may be all the support you need.

Planning becomes more valuable when income is growing or changing, you’re concerned about what you’ll owe, you’re considering significant business decisions, or you simply want more visibility before tax time. Fortitude offers different levels of planning support so you don’t have to pay for more than is useful to you.

Yes. We work with therapists operating as sole proprietors, single-member LLCs, and S corporations, including preparation of both business and personal tax returns when applicable.

For S corporation owners, we can also help with issues such as reasonable compensation, payroll, shareholder health insurance, accountable plans, and other compliance considerations when those services are part of your engagement.

Yes. An S corporation can create meaningful tax savings in the right situation, but it also comes with additional tax filings, payroll, administrative responsibilities, and costs.

We look at the bigger picture rather than relying on a single revenue number or rule of thumb. The goal is to determine whether the potential benefit makes sense for your actual practice—and to help you understand what comes with the decision before you make it.

Yes. Fortitude is a virtual tax and accounting firm based in Utah, and we work with therapists and private practice owners throughout the United States.

Our work is handled through secure online systems, virtual meetings, and our client portal, so you don’t need to be located near our office to work with us.

That’s completely fine. You don’t need to diagnose your own accounting needs before you contact us.

We’ll learn about your practice, how your business is structured, what you’re currently handling yourself, and where you’re running into questions or frustration. From there, we can help you identify the level of support that makes sense without automatically adding services you don’t need.

Start with a conversation. We’ll learn a little about you and your practice, talk about what prompted you to reach out, and determine whether Fortitude and our services are a good fit for what you need.

If it makes sense to move forward, we’ll explain the recommended services, pricing, and next steps before you make a decision.
