    Episode #579: Marketing EMDR Therapy, feat. Lilly Risch

    Lilly Risch, LCSW, joins the podcast to talk about marketing EMDR therapy and what it actually looks like to attract clients who are the right fit. The conversation gets into why explaining EMDR to the public feels so uniquely challenging, how leading with symptoms like anxiety instead of trauma can change everything, and what it takes to build a caseload that's both full and sustainable. Lilly shares her own experience growing a group practice in Milwaukee, along with practical ways to simplify your messaging, define your ideal client, and communicate your value without losing what makes EMDR special. A practical, grounding conversation for any EMDR therapist who's ever struggled to put what they do into words.

    Episode #758: Your Practice Is "Successful"… So Why Does It Feel So Flat?

    In today's Ask Abundance, I'm joined by Abundance consultant Rebecca A. E. Smith, Ph.D., and we're talking about something a lot of therapists quietly wrestle with after they've "made it" in private practice: what happens when the practice is working… but you're not excited anymore. We get into the weird grief of realizing the thing you worked so hard to build no longer feels like the dream, why burnout is often less about your job and more about a life that's gotten too small, and how to start reimagining your practice without blowing everything up overnight. We also talk about the pressure therapists put on themselves to stay passionate forever, the freedom that can come from letting therapy become the easy part of your life, and why sometimes the next version of your practice starts by getting out into the world and remembering you're allowed to have fun again.

    Episode #757: New Therapist, New Practice

    In today's episode of the Abundant Practice Podcast, I chat with Abundance Party member Liz about building a private practice from the ground up, including how to move through the early uncertainty of getting clients and setting sustainable fees. We dig into raising rates, marketing to other therapists, and shaping a website that clearly reflects a niche in trauma and personality disorders like BPD in a more psychoeducational way.  Sponsored by TherapyNotes®: Looking to switch EHRs?

    Episode #756: Why You Feel Guilty Charging Private Pay (Even When You Know Your Worth)

    In today's Ask Abundance, I'm joined by Abundance consultant Rebecca A. E. Smith, Ph.D., and we're talking about something most therapists feel but rarely admit: the guilt that shows up the moment you say your rate out loud. We get into why you can believe in your worth completely and still feel it in the room, why you might be making financial decisions on behalf of clients who never asked you to, and what it actually means to put a real offer out there and let it land.

    Episode #755: What Website Features Actually Get Therapists Clients (& Which Are a Waste)

    Kat Love of katlove.com joins the podcast to talk about therapist websites and what actually gets clients in the door. The conversation gets into why so many therapists spend money on the wrong things, how animations, contact forms, and luxury redesigns aren't what's converting visitors, and what it actually takes to get someone to choose you. Kat breaks down the two jobs your website has to do, getting found and getting chosen, and shares practical guidance on copy, photos, and video. If the goal is to stop wasting resources on features that don't move the needle and actually build a site that works, this is a strong place to start.

    Episode #754: Getting Website Traffic But No Clients? Here's What's Broken

    In today's Ask Abundance, I'm joined by Abundance consultant Rebecca A. E. Smith, Ph.D., and we're talking about something every therapist with a website has probably lost sleep over: why people are finding you, landing on your site, and then just... disappearing. We get into why SEO and conversion are two totally different animals, why your copy might be accidentally educating people instead of making them feel understood, and how something as unsexy as a booking widget might be the thing standing between you and a full caseload.

    Episode #753: How Straight Therapists Can Support the LGBTQIA Community, feat. Rachel Hulstein-Lowe

    Rachel Hulstein-Lowe, LICSW joins the podcast to talk about gender diversity and what it actually looks like to show up as an affirming, competent therapist right now. The conversation gets into why so many clinicians are afraid of getting it wrong, how that fear often leads to unnecessary referrals out, and what it takes to build real confidence working with LGBTQIA clients. Rachel shares both her professional experience and her personal perspective as a parent, along with practical ways to deepen self-awareness, challenge assumptions, and create safer spaces for clients. If the goal is to move beyond good intentions and actually show up in a meaningful way, this is a strong place to start. Be sure to check out Rachel's 6-Step A.F.F.I.R.M.

    Episode #752: What Smart Therapists Do During Slow Periods (That Others Don't)

    In today's Ask Abundance, I'm joined by Abundance consultant Rebecca A. E. Smith, Ph.D., and we're talking about the slow periods nobody warns you about. The summer dips, the post-holiday drop-offs, the stretches where the phone just stops ringing. We get into why it's not a sign you're failing, why the therapist Facebook groups are the worst place to turn when you're spiraling, and how to plan your year so a slow month feels like a reset instead of a red flag. If you've ever watched your caseload dip and convinced yourself your practice is falling apart, this one's for you. Sponsored by TherapyNotes®: Looking to switch EHRs?
