    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    UPDATE: So in the past several months I've had the chance to work with hundreds of car accident trauma survivors. The funding is there as our government funded insurance corp fronts funding for psychotherapy for such people. I am planning to market my services along this vein to doctors, and...

    Help marketing myself as a Psychotherapist in private practice

    MARKETING 
    My model is pretty straight-forward, and along 2 separate veins. The first, development a referral 'trough'/network large enough to bring in enough clients for me to then hire contractors to do the work where I receive a percentage (e.g. 50%) of their session fees. I am doing this by...

    Which logo for my counseling practice? + tag line ideas?

    IDEA 
    You're correct, I mistyped the tagline. It is indeed "helping yo navigate to a better self". Is it too generic though? Thank you for the input.

    Which logo for my counseling practice? + tag line ideas?

    IDEA 
    I'd created my logo several months ago, but something about it just didn't sit quite right or reflect me or the service I am promoting. For those that don't know me from other threads, I am a psychotherapist (no jokes plz;)) who specializes in relationships (attachment, codependency etc) and...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    Not a bad idea at all, though not sure how viable it is to market my services to hardressors or bartenders, but I get the idea. I am going to be contracted to do some couples counselling about 45 minutes drive from where I am at. Great area as its quite urban but little to no competition. The...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    Thanks again Andy! Giving them a listen to now. Re the consulting podcast, I am wondering if I'd be well served changing my tag line from "Helping guide you to a better self" to something more tangible, or specific to my niche. That said, my niche will likely expand over time, and I don't want...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    Where else would I go? :p Still have the counsellor directory on my mind but its a bit on the backburner for the moment as I want to build my practice as helping people work through their relationship difficulties is my interest, and also because I need the income. Beyond this I do plan to...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    I have a keen understanding of addiction, and empathy for those struggling with addiction having a dear friend who is sucked into the undertow of his own cycles. I have also worked as an addictions counsellor at the Salvation Army, and the common theme amongst them all is trauma, and yes, of...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    Schooling-wise I hold a BA in Psychology and a Masters Degree in Counselling Psychology, beyond this I am trained various interventions and techniques (some useless, others not) and take an eclectic approach to assessment and treatment. My mainstay is attachment and Emotionally Focused Therapy...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    That's completely opposite of what I am doing. I'm not sure where you got this from. The market dictates the need. There are very few attachment-focused therapists out there. I am simply trying to gain a clearer understanding of the clients seeking my services so I can make some...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    My clients are currently ones with MVA-related trauma. That said, several of them have relationship related issues, and one in particular I've been working on her attachment patterns/codependency issues with her ex. I'm not getting a clear profile of who my clients are, its a bit...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    I know what you're saying. I also know that chasing money is like chasing a cat...it becomes ever increasingly elusive the more you go after it. That said, I chose the niche of relationship counselling, more specifically focusing on attachment and codependency (a lofty word I often dont use so...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    People who are motivated for change/and fed-up with getting into toxic relationship after toxic relationship. Those with deeper pockets who can justify the $120/140 per 50 minute session. I've done a lot of SEO my self, and plan to do some more but overall I feel I need to roll up my sleeves...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    Hey interesting read (infusion.com), thanks for that! Def food for thought. Great case study. You're not the husband by any chance? lol I bet you've certainly got a knack for writing, quite a common story. Definitely have a few demo variables but the issue is where are these people hanging...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    Interesting reframe. Probably a lot of self-help guides, workbooks, POSSIBLY going to a couple's workshop, or self-improvement weekend retreat. A lot of people don't like to admit they have relationship difficulties, but the anonymity of the internet affords them an outlet for airing 'dirty...

    WHO are my CLIENTS??

    So I ve built my site (lighthousecounselling.ca), FB page, Google Business, Yelp, etc.etc... And I realize I am not quite clear as to who my clients are! Background: I am a clinical counsellor/therapist and I currently work as an associate treating trauma clients. My chosen niche is...

    Need advice in exhausting online advertising for psychotherapy practice

    MARKETING 
    Something I'd just started doing is making my own coupons using an online coupon generator and posting them on my FB business page, Craiglists, Kajiji and anywhere else I can. In addition, creating some target-directed advertisements. I'll take a bit of a pay cut to get some clients in the...
