You want to post on social media more, but you don’t know what to post?

I hear this question a lot from therapists.

You want to grow your social media following and bring in more clients to your practice.

You understand that being consistent on social media is key in building an online presence.

But what should you be posting about?

Here’s one simple exercise that you can use to generate a lot of new social media posts!

When creating content for social media, think about your ideal client.

What issues do they have? Write out all of the potential problems that they may be facing/will face.

Then, start answering these problems by creating posts that provide them with valuable and tangible things they can do on their own to help elevate some of the pain from the issues they’re facing.

For example, maybe your client suffers from extreme loneliness and depression due to covid.

You could give them tips such as video chatting with friends, taking a walk outside, encouraging them to start a new hobby, etc.

Even the simplest of advice can go a long way with someone. You don’t have to ‘treat’ your audience to be able to add value to them.

If you put in some effort, this alone could give you weeks worth of content.

Some other great content ideas are:

- Inspiration quotes

- Talk about the specific areas in which you treat

- Talk about a day in the life of someone struggling with ____

- Tips and tricks to help someone struggling with ________

- Why therapy is important

- How your approach is different

- What a client can expect when working with you

- How to get started in therapy

- How to find the right therapist

- Motivational/encouraging posts

- Talk about the transformation you take your clients through
(i.e., from depressed and unmotivated to thriving and productive)

- Share lifestyle things as you see appropriate

- Talk about teletherapy and the benefits

- Discuss covid-19 and ways to reduce stress and anxiety around it

It’s best to sit down for an hour or two each week/month and create your content in bulk.

This way you’re focused on one task, and you will have content for the foreseeable future without having to squeeze it in every day.

Did this give you any new ideas for creating social media content? Do you have a unique way you come up with content?

I’d love to hear all about it in the comments!

It’s growth tip Thursday! Every Thursday we share tips and tricks to help your Private Practice grow.

Today’s tip is about how to make a little extra cash by subletting your office space.

As the Covid-19 vaccine becomes more available across the country, more and more therapists are going back to doing in-person sessions.

A lot of people lost their office space during the pandemic and are looking for a place to see clients.

One of the easiest ways you can generate more income in your practice is by subletting your office on the days that you aren’t using it.

It’s pretty simple. You pick your desired schedule and then you create a list of the days/times that it would be available for someone else to rent, and then advertise it to your local therapists!

This can help to pay part of or maybe even all of the rent on your office space!

We recommend having a legal contract in place to protect everyone involved.

You’ll want to ensure that this contract has specific terms and outlines when he/she may use the office.

Be sure to check with your current contract to make sure that your lease allows you to sublet if you don’t own your space.

A new beautiful website for our friends at Insight Counseling ✨

With 2021 approaching, it’s time to take your private practice seriously.

2020 taught us that to survive in Busienss in ANY industry you have to be ready to move and change as the world does.

Covid forced us all to figure out how to operate our Businesses totally online/remotely.

People are searching for therapists online more and more every day.

If they can’t find you, or your website is outdated, they’re not going to book an appointment with you.

The first step in bringing in more clients for your private practice is to create a website that wows your clients and makes them FEEL like you’re the person who can help them solve their problems.

We create beautiful, custom websites for Therapists so they can have more impact and grow their private practice.

We only have a few spaces open for the month of January. Go to our website www.mindfulwebsolutions.com to talk to us and get started today!

Is your website for your private practice outdated?

Does it reflect who you are today and the clients that you help?

Can clients easily schedule sessions and fill out their paperwork on your website?

Does it create a WOW factor when a potential client sees it for the first time?

If you said no to any of these, it’s probably time for a new website!

At Mindful Web Solutions, we build websites exclusively for Therapists. We help you have more impact and a more successful practice.

Through custom web design, award-winning copy, and strategic marketing we create websites that have your potential clients thinking “Wow, I think he/she/they could REALLY help me.”

From the moment they visit your website they are taken through a journey with one goal in mind: Convincing them that YOU are the exact person that can help them.

And they book an appointment!

Being young in any field holds its challenges, the generations before you tend to discredit you on your age alone. It’s beyond frustrating for you to deal with, and it’s a tricky road to navigate down.

I’m not saying that every time you have a client who is a good bit older than you that this happens. But I have been noticing this topic come up time and time again from therapists who are just getting their footing in the field.

Your workplace may have policies in effect where they do not wish for you to disclose any personal information about yourself, so make sure that you are following the guidelines given by your bosses here.

When the situation does arise where the client thinks that your age is affecting your ability to help them with their healing try to remind them that you will not know about their personal experience with that subject, but you can try your best to understand it.

Wording things like this shows them that you aren’t saying that you have personal experience but you are going to have an open mind to help them cope with their experience.

When it comes to more personal questions in your life it is best to state that you are not comfortable with disclosing information regarding that in fear of you appearing biased to one side or another.

You need to rely on your own personal judgment when it comes to answering any personal questions.

The oh so dreaded video. I see time and time again therapists just don’t want to make one of these. I honestly cannot follow the logic behind the aversion behind doing them.

Blog Post: https://www.mindfulwebsolutions.com/use-an-introduction-video-for-your-private-practice-for-a-50-conversion-increase

Client Avatar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIR1QDX_c2I

Having an introduction video on your website can bring your face, voice, and personality to life and give your viewers the opportunity to get a feel for who you are.

Videos help your conversion rates by 50 percent.

Video marketing is the new future and failing to keep up with this trend is going to leave you in the dust here.

Be personable in this video.

Start with writing out a script.

Make sure your message is targeted to your target audience, using your client avatar here is a great way to ensure you are directing your message to the right people.

The most important part of your script is a call to action.

Take as many takes as you need until you can see your personality shine through in this video.

Keep this video on the shorter range.

Make sure you appear confident in this video as well, which again will take some practice.

The next thing you are going to want to ensure you are doing is to have a good quality video, this may mean you should hire a videographer.

Showing off your office a little in this video as well I highly recommend.

When you start to get your private practice going or already have it there, you may realize that you just can’t do everything yourself. You have decided to take someone on to help you make your practice run a little more smoothly and make your life easier. Now you have to interview them…. Great… Another thing you have never done before. How do you even go about this process?

Blog post: https://mindfulwebsolutions.com/the-best-way-to-find-help-for-your-private-practice

Before you just post a job out there for anyone to come apply, ask around in your network. Finding someone trusted by someone you trust can save you a lot of heartaches.

We know that your network may not be able to help you fill this role, and that’s when you are going to want to put out a job posting.

When you start getting applications that fit the qualifications that you are looking for it's time to start scheduling interviews.

They should be interviewing you at the same time to make sure that your role aligns with their future goals for themselves.

When they come in for the interview, start off a bit more on the casual side. This helps shakes the nerves on both sides of the field as well as gives you a better idea of who this person is.

Try to avoid the generic interview questions, more people have been trained to respond to those questions to say exactly what you want to hear. This makes it very hard for you to get a real idea of this person.

Think of something that can show you a bit of who they are without them even realizing it.

Dig into situations the person may face if they were offered the role and see if they would handle them in a way you see fit.

The last thing you should ask them is to break down a situation, then ask them to address a coworker about it.

The interview should always end with you asking them if they have any questions for you.
