The 4 Key Ingredients to Becoming a Sought-After Therapist [Ep 117]

Why do some private practice therapists have a waitlist, while others can’t fill their calendars? In today's episode, I'm breaking down the four essential ingredients that actually create trust and reputation - not just in theory, but in practice too. We’ll cover why staying the “secret therapist” is quietly killing your business, how perfectionism keeps you stuck, and the order you actually need to build your visibility, credibility, and authority (hint: most therapists get this completely backward).You'll learn a visibility move you can make this week, the one-month consistency commitment that changes everything, when to actually focus on quality, and the uncomfortable truth about longevity that separates flash-in-the-pan therapists from those with lasting careers.This isn't fluffy advice - This is the exact framework I’ve used during my biggest growth seasons, and I'm giving you the straight-up truth about what works. Stick around to the end for a quick homework assignment to help you apply this right where you are now.Topics covered in this episode:The invisible practice trap keeping therapists overlooked (and the one bold move you can make this week to break free)Why perfectionism is quietly killing your momentum—and the permission slip you’ve been waiting for to start before you’re “ready”The consistency formula that transforms occasional interest into genuine client trust and positions you as the practitioner that everyone recommendsThe counterintuitive timing of quality improvement that most therapists completely misunderstandThe often-missing ingredient of longevity that creates a sustainable, sought-after practiceConnect with Felicia:Get my freebie & join the email list: The Magic SheetsInstagram: @the_bad_therapistWebsite: www.thebadtherapist.coachFacebook group: Healing MoneyQuote:"If you are a secret therapist, if you are invisible, then there is no way that you can build trust.
