The Beachfront Therapist

by Lisa Savinon

The Beachfront Therapist is a space for mental health providers. We have honest conversations about what it means to be a therapist, and own a practice, while trying to make space for ourselves. The focus of this podcast and community is all the ways we make space for our own fun and joy as clinicians. Topics include tips to make your practice or side hustle run smoother, systems and organization, creative ways to stave off burnout, finding joy in our profession, and making space for fun and happiness in our practice and in our lives. 
The Beachfront Therapist's host is Lisa Savinon, a counselor that moved to the beach after discovering the need to make space for her own joy and happiness as a clinician. Lisa's practice is entirely telehealth model, and she is also a wife and mom, special needs parent, doctoral student, EMDRIA consultant in training, and an Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT 200). 
This podcast features episodes on all things therapy and practice owning as well as special EMDR by the Ocean episodes for those that are trained in EMDR and those that are interested.

62. Targeted Marketing for Therapists

26m · Published 10 Sep 23:00

In this episode, I provide an in depth discussion of how I target market via social media, including selecting platforms, hashtags, and the best times to post. I also share my unique way of target marketing in the community.

It may sound strange, but a hobby of mine is reading about business growth strategies. Ever since I started my practice, I scheduled time to learn about marketing, systems, organization, and business planning and growth. It has become a passion of mine, and while I am not a coach, and I don’t have a practice growth course to sell, I do love sharing what I know. As a former teacher, this is just part of who I am, and while I have been told not to give so much away for free, I truly enjoy learning from others, sharing what I’ve learned, and seeing therapists succeed. We deserve to make a good living too, and we can all success together. I’m happy to do my part and share what I've learned with you.

My goal for this series is to share from one to clinician to another, the strategies and skills that I have learned through running my practice, my continuing education business, coordinating workshops with hundreds of attendees, building a community, and owning a podcast. I hope you find it helpful, and I’m glad you’re here.

While you may think this episode is just for school counselors, it actually has something for everyone. We can all relate to the experience of leaving, or wanting to leave, a stressful job with unrealistic expectations that we have long since outgrown, and in this episode 5 therapists sit down together to discuss why they left, what they’re doing now, and how they did it. They share their recommendations for transitioning into private practice and have a very frank conversation about money and fees. This is a don’t miss episode for anyone considering making the jump to private practice, especially school counselors and community mental health workers.
