    Jul 14 2026

    Standing out as a therapist isn't about adding more credentials or stacking more adjectives onto your website. In this episode, Anna explores the difference between telling potential clients who you are and showing them what it's actually like to work with you. Through the metaphor of a movie trailer, she explains why memorable marketing creates a feeling—not just a list of facts.

    Using practical examples, Anna demonstrates how to transform generic website copy into language that helps clients recognize themselves, experience your approach, and feel confident reaching out. If you've ever struggled to make your personality or therapeutic style come through in your writing, this episode will give you a new way to think about your copy.

    Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

    1️⃣ Why your website should feel like a movie trailer for working with you—not just a résumé of your qualifications.

    2️⃣ The difference between telling clients about your approach and showing them what it actually feels like to be in the room with you.

    3️⃣ How specificity and storytelling help the right clients connect with your marketing faster.

  • 77. Where Does Your Personality Belong on Your Website? (Alumni Check-In Session #6)
    Jun 30 2026

    Your website shouldn't feel like a completely different version of you than the one clients meet in the therapy room. In this alumni check-in episode, Anna answers a thoughtful question from a Confident Copy graduate: How do you let your personality shine through your marketing while still keeping your website focused on your ideal client?

    Using the metaphor of a pair of light pink pants that felt "too bold" to wear, Anna explores why so many therapists default to "beige" marketing that feels safe but ultimately blends in. She shares practical ways to infuse your personality into your copy without making it all about you—so the right clients recognize themselves, recognize you, and feel confident reaching out.

    Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

    1️⃣ Why your personality belongs in your marketing—even when your website is client-centered.

    2️⃣ How "beige" marketing keeps you from standing out to the clients you're hoping to attract.

    3️⃣ A simple exercise to help your authentic voice come through naturally in your website copy.

    4️⃣ Why the goal isn't to appeal to everyone, but to help the right clients immediately recognize that you're the therapist for them.
