Am hoping to launch my practice this year and this is so so so helpful!!!

[@beccakrist96]

Thank you so so much for making this video! I’m doing my BSc in psychotherapy and I’m at the point where I’m thinking about doing a MA and I have so much uncertainty about what I want to do. This is and has been amazing insight. Thanks again.

I was freaked out going straight to my niche. Thankfully a copywriter wouldn’t take no for an answer. ❤️

[@Zhen_Jess520]

Thank you! Valuable info!

[@jeffnixa4789]

Thank you, Marie. Very helpful, practical, humorous, do-able. Grateful! _/\_

Gestalt, nature therapy, & narrative. How do you market that integrative approach?

[@kimcarrots]

I'm so torn about having a specific niche. I live in a rural area and there are a lot of therapists. So when I get a referral I hate to have a specific population I work with because I don't get the referral. (I do have some populations I don't work with but I am more of a generalist.) Any advice for me? (And I would LOVE to know how to get SEO for a nearby city that I don't live in? ) :)

Maybe you could keep track of the referrals you're getting over time to see if there are a few areas of focus that trend in your area-- then see which of those resonate with you the most?

@@woonsckt Great idea! Thank you.
