I’m excited to welcome Florida-based trauma therapist Sarra Lashhab to the podcast today! In today’s episode, we’re chatting about how to get clients from Instagram with a small following.

Sarra started out in community mental health and has now built a FULL private practice (Healing Loudly) with less than 1,000 followers on Instagram! She specializes in helping survivors of sexual violence, a deeply important and often “taboo” topic on social media. 

She is proof that you don’t need a massive audience to create impact and income. You just need to show up with clarity, consistency, AND a heart to help your people!

In this episode, we cover: 

  • Sarra’s transition from community mental health to launching her private practice
  • How she’s consistently gotten clients from Instagram
  • The type of content Sarra creates + what performs best for her audience
  • How she balances growth with genuine community-building on Instagram
  • Main referral sources for her current clients
  • Why keeping a simple, consistent CTA works so well
  • How narrowing her niche has fueled her growth & confidence
  • The powerful shift in her income since leaving community mental health
  • Her experience inside the Reels Membership vs. creating content solo
  • Sarra’s best advice for therapists who feel nervous to start showing up on Instagram
