James Childress is an accountant for therapists and owner of the firm CAC Advisors. He and his team help practice owners manage their finances, plan for predictable growth, and achieve their entrepreneurial dreams. His team's proactive and high contact approach has helped many clients double their practice sizes in under three years, all through the power of accounting, data analysis, guidance, and financial forecasting. James lives with his partner and two bossy cats in “the town of Wyoming” as he likes to call it.
