In this conversation, Anna sits down with Taylor Williams, a private practice therapist who experienced both sides of the post-pandemic landscape: building a full caseload with ease as a generalist… and then watching referrals come to a complete halt. What followed was a process of refining her niche, rebuilding her messaging, and learning how to connect with clients in a way that actually works in today’s market. This episode is an honest look at what it takes to grow a sustainable, premium-fee practice now—and why specificity, honesty, and connection matter more than ever. Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: 1️⃣ Why being a generalist stopped working—and what changed in the therapy industry after 2020 2️⃣ How getting specific in your niche leads to more aligned, longer-term clients 3️⃣ What private pay clients are really looking for (and why connection matters more than credentials) 4️⃣ How to build referral relationships that feel genuine and lead to “stickier” clients Resources & Links Mentioned: The Birthday Sale: https://walkerstrategyco.com/bs26 Confident Copy: https://walkerstrategyco.com/cc DIY Brand Kit (DBK): https://walkerstrategyco.com/dbk Taylor’s website: https://www.trinitytraumatherapy.com Get Booked Out Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/getbookedout Connect + Subscribe Enjoying the podcast?
