Marketing Therapy

2. The Disconnect That's Costing You Clients


Listen Later

In this conversation, I break down one of the most common (and costly) mistakes therapists make in their marketing: speaking from Point Z—the place of transformation—rather than meeting clients where they are at Point A. I walk you through how this disconnect shows up, why it happens (hint: it's not your fault), and how to realign your messaging so it resonates with the clients you actually want to attract.

You’ll walk away with a clear reframe and a practical next step to make sure your marketing is not just accurate, but truly effective.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

1️⃣ Why your clients aren’t recognizing themselves in your marketing—and how to fix that disconnect

2️⃣ The surprising way clinical accuracy can backfire in your copy

3️⃣ A simple exercise to re-anchor your messaging in what your clients already know and feel
