Branding for Therapists Done YOUR Way

Having a quality brand doesn't have to cost a fortune.

As a busy therapist with little to no training in design, you CAN create a fantastic brand without spending thousands! This course is for you if you want to create a beautiful brand for your business, but the feelings of overwhelm or your lack of knowledge on the subject are getting in the way. We get it because we've been there ourselves: you care about getting it right the first time, and you don’t have $10k+ to risk on a branding agency where you're not even 100% sure they can deliver what you need. This course is exactly what you're looking for.

This Course Is For You If...

  • You're on a budget.

    Just because you're on a budget doesn't mean you can't create a brand that you are absolutely proud of.

  • You don't have time to waste.

    You're a busy entrepreneur who knows that every moment counts. You don't need the history lesson. You need a concise course that focuses on the most essential elements of branding so you can get it done now.

  • You want an easy step-by-step plan.

    No guessing games or unnecessary fluff. This course will lay out the exact plan for you to create all the elements you'll need for your brand.

What people are saying

"DIY Your Brand In A Weekend was exactly what I needed in order to brand and market my new business."

Dr. Sunni Lampasso, PsyD, BCBA-D

"As a Psychologist and Professional Coach, DIY Your Brand In A Weekend was exactly what I needed in order to brand and market my new business. As a result of this course, I have developed a clear understanding of my company's values, mission, and ideal client. I would highly recommend that anyone planning to go into business take this course prior to developing your logo, website, or social media accounts."

"This was exactly what I needed to build my own brand without having to pay a ton of money up front. I would highly recommend it to anyone starting out on their own!”

Samantha Newton, Therapist

“DIY Your Brand In A Weekend was amazing! I’m planning to start a therapy practice from scratch with zero design or marketing experience. This training explained everything I needed-from defining an ideal client, to finding your brand voice, to creating a visual style guide-all with clear, concise tips, worksheets, and real-life examples. The mix of videos and worksheets provided me with the content and inspiration I needed to build a mood board and logo that I can be proud of. I feel so much more ready to tackle this next career goal! Most brand/logo designers charge in the thousands to build a brand, so this training was exactly what I needed to build my own brand without having to pay a ton of money upfront. I would highly recommend it to anyone starting out on their own!”
