I first met Sarah D Rees through my class, The Insta Retreat, quite a few years ago, and we’ve worked together ever since. Sarah is a mental health nurse and CBT therapist with over 10 years of experience in private practice. Through her mentoring and coaching services, she supports other therapists in setting up and growing their private practices. Sarah struggled with the lack of a business plan and structure in her private practice, leading to dissatisfaction and confusion, and wanted to help others so they don’t have to feel the same way.
Her book, A Therapist’s Guide to Private Practice: Building a Values-based Business, is out this week (Happy publication week, Sarah 🥳), so it seemed the perfect time to ask her on the podcast to hear about it and how she supports therapists.
Things we talk about in this episode:
* Challenges of setting up a private practice for therapists and coaches
* Identifying values in business and personal life
* Marketing strategies for private practice therapists
* The benefits of niching for mental health professionals
* Using Substack for email marketing and membership platforms
* Using Substack for therapists to build communities and generate income
* Therapist social media presence and boundaries
* Mental health services demand, therapy training and book launch.
Links we mention in this episode:
* Sarah’s book
* Sarah’s website, Instagram and Substack group for therapists
* My Instagram Summer School
