Ideal Client Attraction for Therapists

Are you a counselor, coach or ND who is just starting out in private practice ?

Need more clients, but feeling clueless or, overwhelmed by the marketing game?

Want solutions that are geared to introverts, and so practical and easy you can do it yourself ?

Whether you are new to private practice, or seasoned as a clinician but wanting off insurance panels, or just are not growing your income as quickly as you’d like, the fact is that you need to master client attraction marketing to fill your practice, stay in business, and have the life you want.

If you’re like most new and struggling practitioners I know, you are worried about getting enough clients or patients to fill your appointment calendar.

Marketing is a confusing and strange new world, where the playing field seems only partially visible, and the game rules are unfamiliar and feel bizarre. You might even think it borders on unethical.

That’s what I thought at first too.

Perhaps you’ve ordered business cards, gone to networking meetings, run some ads, and maybe even got yourself a website — but you still have low income, high insecurity, and too many sleepless nights and stress-filled days.

This is what we all start out doing. And when this is ALL we’re doing, it’s why so many of us fail to make it in business. These things just aren’t enough. Not by a long shot.

So you might have tried figuring it all on your own — you’resmart, it should be easy, right? Maybe you’ve been following the advice of a lot of different marketing gurus but still your efforts aren’t paying off.

Because I’m a therapist myself, with 20 years in practice, I know how frustrating it is to be good at what you do and not be getting more opportunity to do it. I’ve put a lot of information on this website especially for you — all tips and tricks and methods that I’ve personally used that have helped me grow and sustain a practice in the counselor -saturated area of suburban Seattle.
