About this episode
Uriah discusses the importance of optimizing the intake process to improve client acquisition in therapy practices.
Ever wonder if your intake process is quietly costing you clients? Yeah, we hear that a lot. That's why in this episode, Uriah is tackling the real problem practice owners keep running into — not marketing, not clinical skills, but intake. Specifically, what happens in that critical window between someone reaching out and someone actually responding. We're talking about the stats that will make you rethink everything. The four solutions most practices try. The honest pros and cons of each. And the one combination that actually works: AI for speed, humans for care. These aren't hypothetical scenarios. This is what's happening in group practices every single day. So we figured it was time to lay it all out, plain and simple. Hit play, and find out what your intake process has been missing.
