Marketing Therapy

73. Is DIY-ing Your Marketing (Accidentally) Holding Your Practice Back?


Listen Later

In this episode, Anna explores the gap between insight and action—and why so many therapists stay stuck in their marketing even when they already know what isn’t working. Drawing parallels between therapy clients and private practice owners, she invites listeners to consider whether self-sufficiency has quietly become a barrier to growth.

Anna also walks through the many ways support can look in business, from free resources and templates to coaching programs and fully done-for-you services. If you’ve been wondering whether it’s time to stop white-knuckling your marketing and start getting support, this episode offers a grounded, compassionate perspective on what asking for help can actually make possible.

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

1️⃣ Why insight alone often isn’t enough to create meaningful change in your marketing

2️⃣ The difference between learning a skill yourself and recognizing when it’s time to outsource

3️⃣ How self-trust—not just strategy—impacts your willingness to ask for help

4️⃣ What therapists can learn from their own clients about support, growth, and sustainable change
