Even though this isn’t easy to share, I want to give you a behind the scenes look into my August income report. August 2024 was my lowest income month since March 2023. Despite that, I am really, REALLY proud of everything I accomplished in August!

Are you a therapist who’s showing up on Instagram, but you’re not getting the results you want?

Maybe you’re already posting content to your page, but your following isn’t growing. Maybe you’re stuck in the ‘200 view jail’ and your engagement feels like it’s never gonna come back. Despite putting in what feels like solid effort, you still haven’t gained a client from Instagram.

Trust me - I’ve been there myself, and I know it sucks when you’re not growing on Instagram.

I know you see plenty of other therapists growing and getting results, and you’re wondering why you’re not. Growing on Instagram is NOT impossible. But..if it’s feeling hard, it may be time to shift and try something new. If you’re not sure what that is, you’re in the right place!

In this episode, I cover:

• 6 reasons why therapists are NOT growing on Instagram
• What you can do to combat these reasons
• Acknowledging that it’s really freaking hard to show up and put yourself out there on Instagram

It’s time to set the record straight on something...

The Instagram algorithm is NOT out to get you!

Contrary to popular belief, Instagram is trying to help you. Their primary goal is to keep people on the app for as long as possible. When it comes down to it, the Instagram algorithm cares about human behavior. As therapists, we definitely resonate with this, because WE are experts in human behavior!

But...if you’re not seeing the results you want on Instagram, this is an episode you don’t want to miss! I’m sharing seven things that therapists need to know to beat the Instagram algorithm.

In this episode, I cover:

• Realizing that the Instagram algorithm isn’t really out to get you
• Adjusting your expectations + why your content may not be resonating with your ideal client like it should be
• 7 tips for you to beat the Instagram algorithm as a therapist
• Why you need to study your own behavior and see what you vibe with on Instagram
