How to Get More Private Practice Clients Without Social Media

👉 Get the free episode companion guide hereIn today's episode I share the story of a private practice client who grew her bookings by more than 300% in under 12 months and reached 115% of her revenue goal almost two months ahead of schedule, all while working part-time and staying off social media, which makes her a great example of how to get more clients in private practice when platforms like Facebook and Instagram feel like a poor fit for you.

She first came to me for a Website Wellness Check, and during that review I could see how much potential her business held and where friction on her website was making it harder for people to take the next step, so we went on to refine her niche, install the service delivery systems she was missing, and work through the mindset blocks around fees and paying herself.

I talk through how to niche down as a psychologist or counsellor even when it feels counterintuitive, why tracking your private practice numbers and conversion rate turns anxiety into confidence (her conversion rate has averaged 50% over six months), and how a weekly podcast with a clear call to action sent listeners to her website and increased her therapy bookings month after month. I also share how her sharper messaging began attracting referrals from medical specialists who now send clients directly to her, and why the best private practice website tips all come back to refining a little each month because a website is never finished.

If you would like to see where the gaps are in your own website, you can order a Website Wellness Check here: https://sales.brooklynstorme.com/wwc-aud/ and any refinements you make now will help keep your diary full over the Christmas period.
