The Trauma Therapist | Podcast With Guy Macpherson, Phd | Inspiring Interviews With Thought-leaders In The Field Of Trauma.

I rarely dedicate podcast episodes to business stuff. There are plenty of other podcasts out there that specialize in that. Nevertheless, I decided to change that for this episode and invite John Clarke on the podcast. John is a licensed therapist, business coach, and wordsmith for therapists who helps therapists fill the empty slots on their calendars and overcome their fears of digital marketing. He’s learned a lot of things the hard way in multiple practices from the ground up in highly competitive regions of the country, and started writing about those lessons at PrivatePracticeWorkshop.com (http://privatepracticeworkshop.com/). Today, John owns a thriving private pay group practice in Charlotte, NC and is the founder of Unconditional Media, the digital marketing team for therapists in private practice nationwide.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-trauma-therapist-podcast-with-guy-macpherson-phd-inspiring-interviews-with-thought-leaders-in-the-field-of-trauma/exclusive-contentThis show is
