If social media leaves you feeling drained, confused, or just not like yourself, you're not alone.

In this episode, I’m sharing a simple, free, and often-overlooked way for counsellors to get found by more of the right clients without needing a website or being all over social media.

You'll learn:

• What Google Business Profile is and why it works
• How to set it up quickly and easily
• What kind of posts to add (no pressure, no perfection required)
• How it helps even if you work online
• And how this one quiet action can help you build trust and visibility without the overwhelm

Whether you're just starting out or looking for a gentler way to grow your private practice, this is a great place to begin

🎧 Listen now and take your first step towards being found - calmly, sustainably, and in a way that works for you.

Do you need a perfectly planned-out content strategy to stay consistent? Or can you just show up, speak from the heart, and see what sticks?

In this episode, I'm joined by my brilliant friend and fellow therapist Sarah (aka The Binge Eating Therapist) as we get honest about how we each approach content creation — and how different those approaches are.

We’ve both been creating weekly content for year with blogs, podcasts, YouTube, and in this chat, we’re pulling back the curtain on:

• What actually helps us stay consistent (even when motivation dips)
• How we work with our personalities, not against them
• The real benefits of creating content beyond just “marketing”
• Why you don’t need a Trello board, a ring light, or perfect confidence to start
• And the surprising ways content has helped us grow as therapists and people, too

Whether you’re thinking about starting a blog, podcast, YouTube channel, or just want to share more consistently, this episode is here to remind you:

There’s no one “right” way to do this. You get to make it yours.

Sarah Dosanjh is a psychotherapist and author of the bestselling book I Can’t Stop Eating. After her own recovery from binge eating disorder she has gone on to specialise in helping others do the same. She has appeared on various media outlets such as BBC breakfast, Sky’s Roundtable and BBC Radio One, as well as amassing over 3 million views on YouTube.

If marketing your counselling practice feels like a wobbly, messy, “what-the-heck-am-I-doing” kind of experience… this episode is for you.

Because today, we’re not talking strategy or content plans. We’re talking about you - the human behind the posts. The one quietly trying to make it work while wondering if you're getting it all wrong.

In this open letter, I’m sharing a personal message to the part of you that’s second-guessing, doubting, and wondering if you're cut out for all this “visibility” stuff.

Spoiler: You are.

We’ll talk about:

• Why it’s totally normal to feel overwhelmed by marketing
• What most counsellors get wrong about visibility (and how to shift it)
• The emotional side of showing up, even when it’s scary
• And why small, consistent action is more powerful than you think

If you’ve ever felt like the only one struggling to “get it right,” this episode is your gentle reminder that you’re not alone, and that slow doesn’t mean stuck.
