About
Hi, I'm Kat Love
I'm a business and marketing coach for therapists in private practice
I help therapists get a steady stream of clients with marketing that fits who they are. I've worked in therapist marketing for over a decade.
I live just outside of San Francisco, California and support therapists all over the world, whether you're just starting out, rebuilding after a slow season, or building an additional stream of income.
What makes this different
A calm place to get guidance
My therapist clients often tell me that our sessions feel spacious and low pressure and that they leave with something they can actually act on. There's no urgency to manufacture here and no system you have to fit yourself into.
You'll get room to think. Clients describe our sessions as easy to be in, and they often say they feel steadier at the end than they did at the start.
You'll get plain, practical answers. Simple and direct, with the next steps clarified so you're not left sorting through more information on your own.
You'll get a plan shaped around you. We build from your strengths and from what you genuinely enjoy, so there's nothing to squeeze yourself into.
You won't have to explain your world. Supervision, why you can't post client stories, what it feels like when a caseload empties out in August. I already know.
You gave clear impactful suggestions and topics for me to keep working on but somehow you managed to make things feel very spacious and low pressure.

Why therapists
Therapists are the reason I do this
I'm a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and neglect and for a long time I coped by running. I buried myself in work and achievement and anything that kept me moving. By the time I reached graduate school in New York I was running so hard that I wasn't sure I could keep going.
Then one afternoon a friend asked me why I was always running. For some reason, the question landed in a way that made me start questioning it all, so I left graduate school and found a therapist. She met me with a kind of compassion and presence I had never experienced and in that space I found enough of myself to continue to live.
That's why I work with therapists. You help people find their way back to themselves, to home. You are saving lives.
Getting the right clients in front of you is the part I can help with.
How we'll approach your marketing
Build a practice that works for you
Discover what actually deserves your energy
There are a hundred things you could be doing. We'll sort out what matters right now, what can wait, and where your energy is most likely to pay off.
Market yourself without feeling salesy
You don't need to be louder or pushier. We'll find ways to talk about your work that feel true to who you are and help the right clients feel understood before they ever get on a call.
Create a practice that supports the life you want
Maybe that's a full caseload with time for your family, or fewer working days, or something much bigger. I've helped grow practices into seven-figure businesses but bigger is only better if you want it.
Work with your nervous system, not against it
Being visible can feel vulnerable, so we'll get curious about your marketing window of tolerance and make sure marketing doesn't push you into collapse or burnout. No dancing on TikTok (unless you want to).

On a personal note
Hello from San Francisco
Born and raised in California, I then spent fourteen years living in Greece and almost a year as a digital nomad before returning back at the end of 2023. I'm based in Sausalito which is just north of San Francisco now.
If our paths cross, let's go for a walk in the redwoods or get a coffee.
