How to Make Social Media Easier for Therapists

In this month’s Good Enough Counsellors podcast, I’m taking my own advice - yes, really! With a busy week supporting therapists in the Therapy Growth Group, I didn’t have time to prep a brand new episode, so I’ve reused some golden content from a previous episode on social media planning.This episode is perfect for you if you're a therapist who struggles with planning content or posting consistently. Whether you're a meticulous scheduler or more of a "post as the mood takes you" type, there's something here for you.Plus, I’ll share:Ideas for social media posts for May 2025How to use Mental Health Awareness Week (13–19 May, theme: community) in your contentWays to tailor posts to your niche - whether that’s trauma, anxiety, bereavement, neurodivergence, addiction, or maternal mental healthA few lighter post ideas to mix things up (yes, Talk Like Yoda Day makes an appearance...)Takeaways:Why it’s okay to reuse your posts (and your podcast content!)Different approaches to social media planning—and how to find one that works for youHow to use awareness days like Mental Health Awareness Week and Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week to connect with your audienceHow to create post themes that make your content easier to write and more consistentA little reminder that social media can be fun tooLinks referenced in this episode:mentalhealth.org.ukjosephinehughes.comSetting up in private practice?
