In this episode of The Therapy Show, I’m thrilled to chat with therapist Ryan Forbes, who brings a unique perspective on working with high-achieving clients.

Yung Sidekick, an automated note-taker for therapists, is offering a special promotion for listeners! Use the code LISA20 to get 20% off your first purchase with Yung-Sidekick.

Here are some of the key points we dive into:

• Understanding High-Driven Clients: Ryan shares what he’s learned about the unique challenges faced by wealthy, high-achieving clients—like confidentiality concerns, fear of failure, and the drive to always maintain success.
• Unique Therapeutic Needs: Many of these clients feel isolated and struggle to find safe spaces for personal issues since most of their relationships are work-related. Ryan emphasizes that confidentiality is crucial in building trust with this demographic.
• Therapist Bias: We discuss how therapists may unintentionally bring biases into sessions with wealthy clients, often because these clients don’t fit into typical therapeutic frameworks. Ryan shares ways to overcome these biases to better serve this group.
• Scheduling Flexibility: For clients with intense, unpredictable schedules, Ryan explains the importance of adapting therapy hours to meet their needs, even if it means unconventional session times.
• Premium Pricing Strategy: Ryan explains why it’s essential for therapists to consider premium pricing when working with high-net-worth clients, as they often gauge value based on the level of investment.
• Marketing to a Niche: We talk about Ryan’s new course, The Pursuit of Success: Counseling Highly Driven/Highly Successful Clients with Confidence, which teaches therapists how to reach this unique clientele with effective marketing strategies and business insights.

This episode is packed with insights for therapists interested in serving high-performing clients.

Plus, you can earn 1.5 continuing education contact hours by taking Ryan’s self-study course, which covers both the therapeutic techniques and business strategies needed to succeed in this niche.
