Letâs be honest, marketing your therapy practice can feel really uncomfortable.

If youâve ever held back from talking about the benefits of therapy because youâre afraid of making promises you canât guarantee, this oneâs for you.
It makes sense. Youâre an ethical therapist, and therapy isnât a quick fix. But the problem is that potential clients need some reassurance before they take that first step.
Theyâre feeling lost, overwhelmed, maybe even hopeless. They want to believe therapy can help, but theyâre not sure. And if your marketing is vague or filled with clinical jargon, theyâll move on.
So, if you struggle to put into words how therapy helps (without overpromising), listen in.

Do you find yourself cringing at the thought of calling yourself an expert?
You're not alone.
Many therapists struggle with this, often brushing off compliments from clients with, "Oh, but you did all the work!"
But avoiding the 'E' word could be holding you back.
It impacts your confidence, makes it harder to attract clients, and ultimately affects your income.
So if youâve been holding back from stepping into your expertise, this episode is for YOU.
Let's get you seen, valued, and fully booked.

In this episode, I break down exactly how I use (and donât use) ChatGPT in my content creation process.
AI is a fantastic tool but it canât replace you. Your personality, experience, and warmth are what make your blogs connect with potential clients.
So letâs talk about how to use ChatGPT the right way - as a sidekick, not a substitute.
