Most of the therapists I have worked with expected that when they qualified they would have been a lot busier with new clients that they were. Of course this can make one frustrated and even question the point of training in the first place.

However I have discovered that if you can get through seven fundamental blockages or hurdles then the chances of success will undoubtedly be far greater for you. These blockages are either in one’s own mind (what we simplistically call a mental block) or a skills blockage (you can call this a technical blockage).

So without further a do here are my seven blockages to break through;

Blockage 1

“Marketing is bad as it says I’m only interested in money”

Blockage 2

“Marketing makes me feel like a commodity”

Blockage 3

“Marketing costs a lot of money”

Blockage 4

“I can attract business without marketing”

Blockage 5

“I don’t have any direct competition”

Blockage 6

“I’m not a salesperson”

Blockage 7

“I will get enough recommendations if I do a really good job for people”
