If you’ve been showing up, doing “all the things,” and still not getting the inquiries or caseload you want, you’re not alone. Lately, I’ve heard so many therapists wondering if clients are even out there anymore—or if no one is willing to pay for therapy at all. I get it. This year’s shifts in the economy, politics, and culture have made clients more discerning, intentional, and cautious. But here’s the truth: they are still looking, and they are still investing in therapy—sometimes at higher rates than you might think.

In this episode, we’ll bust the myth that “no one is paying for therapy” and uncover where your ideal clients are actually spending their time—both online and in person. I’ll share creative, specific strategies to help you meet them where they already are and make sure your website is ready to turn their interest into action.

Whether you’re ready to try new visibility tactics, refine your website, or finally connect with local referral partners, this conversation will help you see the opportunities you might be overlooking—and give you a concrete step to take this week.

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

1️⃣ Why clients are more intentional now—and how that creates more opportunity for the right-fit therapist.

2️⃣ Creative places to connect with potential clients, from Reddit threads to local Facebook groups to unexpected in-person networks.

3️⃣ The make-or-break role your website plays in turning interest into actual bookings (and how to make sure it’s doing its job).
