Most therapists default to a waitlist or refer people out, but this third option could seriously increase your monthly income. In today's episode, I talk about how one of my clients used a therapy intensive to convert a consult call into a same-month booking, without the potential client feeling disappointed or misled. I share the exact language you can use on a 10-minute consult call to present a therapy intensive as the obvious best fit, why your energy and attitude when delivering this information matters more than you think, and what happened when my client implemented this strategy the very same day I coached her on it. If your private practice is full but your inquiries aren’t slowing down, this episode will completely change how you think about your next consult call. Topics covered on Therapy Intensive: The third option nobody talks about when new inquiries keep coming in and you have zero weekly spots Therapy intensive can get clients faster results without the long term commitment of weekly therapy sessions The exact way I coach my clients to pitch a therapy intensive on a 10 minute consult call without apologizing or overexplaining The one mindset shift that will completely change how potential clients react to you on consult calls Assuming your client will be disappointed is the fastest way to guarantee they actually will be Resources from this episode: Liberated Business: www.thebadtherapist.coach/liberatedbusiness Connect with Felicia: Get my freebie & join the email list: The Magic Sheets Instagram: @the_bad_therapist Website: www.thebadtherapist.coach Related episodes: Devotional Sales: My Sales Practice That Wil…","meta_description":"A therapy intensive can be one of the best ways to work with new clients when your private practice is full and inquiries keep rolling in.
