Everywhere I look at the moment, people are sharing some version of:

“Ways to work with me in 2026.”

Coaches, copywriters, designers… they’re all doing it and watch this space, I’m creating mine at the moment, here's what I’m learning….

Basically, it’s so useful. It tells your potential clients

  • What you actually offer

  • What’s changing next year

  • How to book/buy / join

  • What’s not on the menu anymore

Therapists in private practice rarely do this. We might quietly change our fees, tweak availability, add supervision or groups… but we don’t always tell people clearly. I’d love that to change in 2026. 💛 Going forward we all need to be a bit more SHOUTY !!!

So i’m sharing

  1. Why every therapist in private practice should write a “Ways to work with me in 2026” post

  2. Why it needs to be an annual ritual

    For paid members, I’m sharing:
    • How to use this post to build the know–like–trust factor and attract the right enquiries
    • A plug-and-play template you can copy for your blog, Instagram, Facebook or Substack

Think about the main way you attract clients (blog, Instagram, Facebook, website, Substack).
That’s the place I want you to publish this.

Why therapists need a “Ways to work with me in 2026” post

1. It makes the invisible visible

You probably offer more than “one hour therapy sessions”.

Maybe you also:

  • offer EMDR / CFT / couples / trauma-focused work - longer 90 mins, assessment sessions,

  • run groups or workshops

  • do supervision or reflective practice

  • have room hire

  • deliver workshops

  • offer reports, letters, and workplace consultancy

Your clients don’t automatically know this.

A “Ways to work with me in 2026” post:

  • gathers everything into one clear, client-friendly page

  • shows the range of support you offer

  • reduces those “I didn’t realise you did that!” moments

2. It reduces confusion and awkward emails

You know those messages:

  • “Are you taking on new clients?”

  • “Do you do online?”

  • “Can you work with my teenager/partner/colleague?”

  • “What are your fees?”

  • “What days do you work?”

This post lets you answer these questions upfront, in your own words, with warmth and boundaries. You can also send it out to people who enquire or make a number of social media posts from this one post.

All saving you time and helping potential clients feel held and informed, even before they book. It also fits with how I think marketing will be changing in 2026 and what I’ll be doing differently

This should be an annual ritual

Your practice isn’t static. Each year you might:

  • change your fees

  • add a new qualification or modality

  • reduce or expand your hours

  • start / stop supervision or groups

  • refocus your niche (e.g. more couples, fewer teens)

An annual “Ways to work with me in [year]” post:

  • normalises change – “Of course things evolve, and I’ll tell you when they do.”

  • gives you a prompt to review your business each year

  • let’s past and current clients know what’s new

  • creates a trail of posts that show your development over time

It’s also an easy, structured piece of content: once a year, you sit down and say:

“Here’s what working with me looks like this year.”

That’s it. No need for clever angles.
