I’ve known many counsellors that have expressed an interest in seeing clients online, but the tech side of things put them off so it stayed on their to-do list. 

Well, guess what? Due to the coronavirus, many counsellors have had their hand forced and are now seeing clients online - not necessarily a bad thing as it’s made people take action. 

Some are using it as a temporary measure and can’t wait to get back to face to face, but others have discovered that they really like it and can see the many benefits for both them and the clients and want to keep offering online counselling. 

So if you want to offer online counselling, how do you attract online clients?

If you’re looking to attract new counselling clients, you know that you need to regularly spend time on your marketing.

But what if you're in the middle of a pandemic and struggling to get motivated to work on your private practice?

Here are a few ideas to help get you going when you're just not feeling it. 

I’m sure you’ll agree that these are strange times. So I’d like to share with you something we are currently doing in the Grow Your Private Practice membership community. 

You may have more time on your hands because of the lockdown, and I know many clients declined the opportunity to have online counselling. 

But things will change and there will be more of a need for counselling than ever before. Will you be ready?

If not, and you need some motivation I invite you to do the Productivity Power Hour.

I've read and listened to many, many books about both business and mindset over the last few years. Some are interesting, funny and easy to read and some less so.

So if you are a counsellor in private practice, here are a few of my favourites to help you grow your practice. Enjoy! 

Have you ever felt like a bit of a fraud? That somehow, you managed to fake your way into being a counsellor and that soon you'll be found out?

It's ok, don't worry, we ALL feel like that sometimes. I know I do and it can be crippling and stop me in my tracks.

But here's something that's both simple and fun that will help crush Imposter Syndrome. Enjoy!
