If you’ve been following me for awhile, you know SEO is my jam.

I love talking about SEO because it has been my primary strategy for filling my last practice in San Jose and now my new practice in San Diego. And you may not realize it, but SEO is the primary reason for my growth and success through Private Practice Skills, even though I spend WAY way way more time making these videos for YouTube.

But I know that not everyone has time to do a deep dive into their SEO or to sign up for a course all about it. But at the same time, there are some really simple tools that anyone can easily implement to boost their SEO that I know most therapists simply aren’t leveraging to their advantage. So in this video, I offer some super beginner-friendly tools to help your website show up in search results.
