Nadene van der Linden explores the common - and often judgmental - discussion around how many therapy clients a practitioner should see per week. She challenges the notion of a “standard” workload and emphasizes that capacity varies widely based on personal, financial, and health circumstances. Nadene argues that private practice often falls short of the financial stability it appears to offer, especially for therapists with limited capacity. She highlights the critical value of building additional income streams to boost earnings and create a more sustainable, flexible business model.

If you’ve ever wondered why your freebie isn’t getting traction—or how to make your offers irresistible—this episode is a must-listen. Nadene’s insights will help you craft titles that speak directly to your ideal clients and drive real results.

In this episode, Nadene Van Der Linden explores the pros and cons of one-to-one and one- to- many offers. She highlights the appeal of one-to-many formats like webinars and instant-access products, which can generate passive income after an initial investment of time and marketing. However, Nadene emphasizes that group offers come with challenges, including the need for active launches, strategic marketing funnels, and scheduling logistics that can deter clients who prefer personalized, private sessions. One-on-one coaching, by contrast, is often easier to sell due to its flexibility and direct value. Nadene encourages therapists to consider their own preferences and business goals, noting that one-on-one services can be packaged creatively to avoid trading time for money. Ultimately, success in either model requires a blend of mindset, marketing, and sales strategy, and Nadene offers coaching support for those ready to refine their approach. Details available in the show notes.
