The Grow Your Private Practice Show

I’m Jane Travis and I’m an ex counsellor that now works with other therapists to grow their private practice, hence the name of the show. I’m the author of the Grow Your Private Practice book and also run the Grow Your Private Practice membership, where counsellors can get together and learn all about marketing, with a special love of all things blogging. Okay, that’s the official stuffy 'about me' bit out of the way, because honestly, it’s so much more than that. The truth is, the thing that really drives me, is helping counsellors - counsellors like you - to get more freedom and choice into your life so can work when you want to, how you want to and with the issues that you’re passionate about. And importantly, to get paid properly to do so. Because you have the freedom and choice to run a thriving private practice whilst also creating a fulfilling life for both yourself and your family. If you want that too, please click subscribe. I hope you enjoy listening.

  What If Getting Clients Isn’t the Best Reason to Create Content?

  Aug 19, 202638 min

  You’d think that after creating hundreds of blogs, podcasts and YouTube videos between us, my friend and counsellor Sarah Dosanjh and I would have this content creation thing pretty much sorted by now. You’d be wrong. Recently, we’ve both missed some of our usual publishing dates, which got us talking about consistency, what keeps us creating after all these years and, more importantly, why we’re still doing it . Because yes, creating useful content can help people find you and ultimately bring you clients. We are running businesses, after all. But what if that isn’t actually the best reason to keep doing it? In this episode, Sarah and I chat about what we’ve both learned after years of creating content, why finding something you actually enjoy matters, and the surprising things you can get back from the content you put out into the world. We also get into what happens when you miss a week (apparently my brain goes to ‘IS THIS THE BEGINNING OF THE END?’ while Sarah worries about being punished by the YouTube algorithm), why Thursday mornings are officially a ‘no Jane’ zone and the important role £1.49 unlimited Wetherspoons coffee can play in getting things done. It’s basically two friends who’ve been doing this for years comparing notes on what actually keeps us coming back. And I think you might look at creating content a little differently after listening. A huge thank you to Sarah for coming on and having this conversation with me. I always love talking to her, and I think there’s something reassuring about admitting that even after years of creating content, neither of us has got it all perfectly sorted. And actually, I’m not sure that’s even the aim. And, seeing as Buy Me a Coffee actually came up in our conversation, it would be slightly ridiculous of me not to mention it now, wouldn’t it? So yes, if you enjoy the podcast and you fancy buying me a coffee as a little thank you, you absolutely can right HERE . And I promise to spend it responsibly. By which I obviously mean on coffee. About Sarah Dosanjh Sarah Dosanjh is a psychotherapist and author of the bestselling book I Can’t Stop Eating , which is now also available on Audible. After her own recovery from binge eating disorder she has gone on to specialise in helping others do the same. And she's a busy women!

  Why People Stop Going to Counselling – And Never Come Back

  Aug 5, 202616 min

  Why People Stop Going to Counselling – And Never Come Back Have you ever found yourself wondering why a client came to one or two sessions… and then never booked again? It's one of the hardest parts of being a counsellor. Your mind starts trying to fill in the blanks. You replay conversations, question yourself and wonder whether there was something you missed. But what if you've been asking the wrong question? In this episode, we're looking at a different way of thinking about clients who don't continue with counselling. One that could change how you view those experiences, reduce some of the self-doubt that so many counsellors carry, and even influence the way you talk about yourself on your website. If you've ever questioned yourself after a client didn't return, I think this episode might give you a fresh perspective.

  Could Your Website Be Creating Uncertainty for Potential Clients?

  Jul 15, 202619 min

  Have you ever wondered whether your website makes as much sense to your future clients as it does to you? One of the things I've noticed after reviewing hundreds of counselling websites is that it's surprisingly easy to forget what it's like not to know what we know. We naturally write using the language we've spent years learning, often without realising that some of those words can leave potential clients feeling uncertain or out of their depth. In this episode, I'm sharing a simple way to look at your website through your future client's eyes. It's a small shift, but it can make it much easier for people to understand what you do, what your qualifications actually mean and whether you're the right counsellor for them. In this episode, we cover: Why websites that seem perfectly clear to us can feel very different to potential clients. The question I ask whenever I write about qualifications or counselling approaches. How to describe your counselling approach in language your future clients will understand. Why reducing uncertainty makes it easier for people to take that first step. A simple change that could make your website work much harder for you.

In this episode, I'm exploring one of the biggest misconceptions about counselling websites.

If you've ever wondered why your website isn't bringing the enquiries you hoped for, this episode is for you. In this episode we'll explore: Why a "good" website isn't always enough. The hidden reason visitors leave without contacting you. The questions prospective clients are asking themselves. Small changes that can make a big difference. Whether you're creating a new website or improving the one you already have, this episode will give uou a few things to change to keep them around 🌱 Read the accompanying blog: Why Good Counselling Websites Still Don't Get Enquiries Write Your Homepage (1:1) If you'd like my help creating a homepage that helps the right clients feel confident enough to get in touch, you can find out more here: https://www.janetravis.co.uk/write-your-homepage ☕ Enjoyed this episode?
