How to Create a Thriving Therapy Group in Private Practice

Presented by Diane Webb, LMHC on 07-30-2018 at 9 a.m. Pacific (noon Eastern) to 10:30 a.m. Pacific (1:30 p.m. Eastern)

Due to the expansion of digital marketing, group therapy in a private practice setting has opened up considerably. Now it is easier and more efficient to spread the word about one's professional services beyond one's immediate group of colleagues and clientele. While tried-and-true methods of marketing a therapy group still apply, clinicians can also leverage the power of the internet to create engaging and dynamic therapy groups that meet the clinical needs of their communities.  

In this 90-minute marketing webinar, Diane Webb, LMHC will review best practices to create, market, and nurture therapy groups by blending time-tested strategies with new avenues presented by the digital culture. Diane will also explain how to pick the best type of therapy group for specific skills, talents, and populations and discuss how to apply these strategies to maximize the therapeutic power of the group by integrating clinical methods to target a digital audience. 

Additionally, Diane will discuss the many ways to spread the word about a group to a larger audience with genuineness and warmth. She will also provide specific ways to foster group success through group cohesion, adaptability, and the nurturing of relationships throughout the lifespan of the group.

This intermediate instructional level web conference is designed to help clinicians:

  1. Assess the clinical needs of one's individual caseload and the community as a whole in order to pick the right therapy group. 
  2. Demonstrate how to pre-plan and organize for a therapy group while ensuring long-term success. 
  3. List six effective ways to market a therapy group while disseminating a message designed to attract ideal clients. 
  4. Discuss ways to engage with a prospective client to yield success. 
  5. Select marketing strategies to use for an established group.
