Your best clients have been in therapy for years, they've accomplished more than most people they know, & they would never call themselves a trauma survivor. So how do you write a website for someone who doesn't have the words for what she's carrying? Savannah spent years in eating disorder high levels of care & is ready to build her own practice around EMDR & somatic experiencing, but her people don't search "developmental trauma," they search for help with anxiety & feeling like a failure. We get into why "start living a bigger story" might make a recovering client flinch, how a page called Life After an Eating Disorder lets her do the work she loves without leading with it, & why her EMDR page should talk about fewer nightmares & flashbacks instead of explaining the modality. Plus who to network with for a premium fee practice, from trauma informed gynecologists to couples therapists & DBT therapists. Sponsored by TherapyNotes®: Looking to switch EHRs?

You've been through a divorce, you want to specialize in working with people going through one, and you have no idea how to say that in your marketing without it feeling unprofessional or like oversharing. Today I'm joined by Rebecca Smith, a Limitless Practice grad & Team Abundance member with a premium fee private pay practice in New Orleans, to answer exactly that. We get into her rule of thumb (would your most dysregulated client be further dysregulated by what you wrote?), why one line on your website is plenty, & how to keep it zoomed out & almost factual so clients trust you're flying the plane, not sitting in the turbulence with them. You'll also hear both of us read the brief lines we use on our own sites, plus a free ideal client exercise worksheet to help you figure out which part of your story matters most to your person.

You know that itch to build a course or a membership because private practice feels slower & harder than it used to? Today I'm with my friend Kelley Stephens from Private Practice Pro to get into why that's usually the wrong move. Kelley gets real about the numbers, she pulled $45,000 out of her practice to launch her first course & didn't take a salary from the business for two years, plus the $8,000 she spent this year on ads & funnel coaches that turned out to be flushed money, not profit. We talk about why courses specifically are struggling right now thanks to AI (people will take free & mediocre over great & paid), why both of us have shifted back toward live training & one-on-one work because it actually feels better, & why getting a physical office, even one or two days a week, is bringing in referrals that had started drying up. We close out talking about why splitting your energy between your practice & a side business just keeps you stuck in between both, & what's actually got us excited about where private practice is headed.

You know that feeling when you want two full weeks completely offline but the logistics feel impossible, who covers crisis calls, how do you tell clients without destabilizing them? Today I'm back with Rebecca Smith, my Limitless Practice grad with the premium fee private pay practice in New Orleans, to get into exactly that. We talk about why the fear of leaving usually isn't based on the reality of your actual caseload, how to time treatment so you're not cracking someone open right before you disappear, & why putting an out of office responder with crisis line info is enough, you don't owe clients access to you on vacation. Rebecca shares how she's left for maternity leave & designated a local friend as backup & never once needed it, & we get honest about the real reason this feels so hard: it's not about protecting your clients, it's about protecting yourself & your vacation. We close out talking about why your clients can sit with discomfort just fine & why two weeks fully unplugged is not just doable, it's ethical. Sponsored by TherapyNotes®: Looking to switch EHRs?

You know that feeling when you've got a niche but you're still missing where these people actually are & how to go find them? Today I'm working with Anna, who wants to work with moms of upper elementary kids just diagnosed with ADHD, moms who don't want to medicate & don't know what to do as it creates havoc in their marriage & home. We get into who to network with beyond the obvious, testing psychologists, psych prescribers, chiropractors who specialize in kids, neurofeedback places, even homeschool communities & private schools since so many of these families end up there. Anna & I also talk through her fear of cold emailing a practice five hours away (spoiler, she's overthinking it) & how to write copy that goes for the jugular on a mom's feelings of failing without accidentally doing trauma work on the website. We wrap up talking about the difference between marketing direct to a community versus through referral sources, and why she needs both. Paubox makes compliance easy & not annoying!

You became a therapist to sit with people & do deep clinical work, not to post reels & chase a following, so is there a version of private practice that doesn't require you to be glued to social media? Today I'm back with Rebecca Smith, my Limitless Practice grad with the premium fee private pay practice in New Orleans, for a hot take episode on exactly that. We get into why most consultants telling you that you need social media are the ones selling courses on how to do it, why going viral actually creates more problems than it solves (hate comments, licensing issues, nervous system regulation), & why a Facebook page you never post on can still help AI & Google find you. Rebecca shares why she has YouTube videos that live quietly on her website instead of chasing followers, & I talk about why I only use social for Abundance, not for my own therapy practice. We close out with the real permission slip, consistency means your name & niche staying the same everywhere, not a daily post. Sponsored by TherapyNotes®: Looking to switch EHRs?

You know how hard it is to explain why the relationship between you & your client matters, especially when parents are Googling DBT & EMDR & rapport just doesn't sound flashy enough? Today I'm working with Katie, who specializes in high achieving teens & adults who think their self-criticism & anxiety are what's keeping them motivated. We get into how to own being great at connecting with anxious teens fast (even calling yourself the teen whisperer) instead of hiding behind research & clinical language. Katie & I also dig into how to talk to parents who are freaked out after their kid's meltdown, and why a four session commitment beats a vague "let's just see how it goes."

You know that feeling when you've been doing this work for over a decade & still don't have a real vision for what your practice looks like in five years, you're just reacting & surviving? Today I'm back with Rebecca Smith, my Limitless Practice grad with the premium fee private pay practice in New Orleans, to get into exactly that. We talk about why scheduling specific blocks of time (not vague to-do list items like "marketing") is what actually gets long-term thinking done, & why the real first step isn't planning your practice at all, it's figuring out what you want your life to look like in five years first. Rebecca & I get into the idea of picking a lane the way you pick a spouse, you can think other niches are cute, but you married this one, & why giving yourself permission to not change anything is sometimes the most freeing part of the exercise. We close out talking about how clarity, once you have it, makes the next moves so much easier to actually take. Sponsored by TherapyNotes®: Looking to switch EHRs?
