Good Enough Counsellors

Has your Practice Gone Quiet? Let's Talk about Why


Listen Later

Have your enquiries been slowing down? In this episode Josephine explores the question of whether AI is taking over from directories and what therapists can do about it. She shares a practical, human-first answer - why visibility still matters, how to show up without shouting, and simple December content ideas you can use right away.

You’ll learn

  • Why AI can’t replace human connection in therapy—or your marketing
  • What to do when directory profiles aren’t bringing steady enquiries
  • Three ways social media helps therapists (without being “an influencer”)
  • How to show up in a way that feels safe and authentic (not oversharing)
  • Simple December post ideas you can reuse or adapt when you’re busy
  • How reframing the purpose of your social media account can help make it easier for you to produce posts

Ep 75: Grow Your Therapy Practice by Nurturing Connection with Becky Willoughby
