You’ve built a business rooted in compassion, inclusion, and care.

You know the clients are out there, typing “non-diet dietitian near me” or “body-positive therapist in [your city],”  but they’re not finding you.

And how can you help people if they can’t even see you?

That’s where the Local SEO Intensive comes in.

A focused, three-month project to strengthen your visibility, optimize your Google Business Profile, and set up a simple, repeatable system for attracting local clients who are looking for exactly what you do.

Wondering how the heck Local SEO services work?

First, we audit what's working (and what's broken) in your current Google presence.

Then we optimize your Google Business Profile so it actually ranks.

We also write location-specific pages that answer the exact searches your ideal clients are typing. And we set up a simple system to collect reviews consistently - because Google rewards businesses that people trust.

Your next client is already searching.

When someone nearby looks for a “non-diet dietitian,” “inclusive therapist,” or “HAES nutritionist,” you want your name to be the one they see, not buried under chain clinics or generic listings.

That map used to be all red. Six weeks later, it wasn't.

Real practice, real city, same Google.

The only thing that changed was what we actually did with their Google Business Profile and website.

Average map rank went from 18.7 to 9.1 (lower is better, for the record), and a map that was basically a sea of red dots started going green.


No ads or shortcuts, just using actual strategy that gave Google enough context to understand who this practice was, where they were, and exactly who they served.

Who this is for

This intensive is for you if:

✓ You have a website but you're not showing up in local searches

✓ You get random traffic but not local clients ready to book

✓ Your Google Business Profile exists but it's basically a ghost town

✓ You've DIYed SEO but you're not seeing results

✗ You're not ready to ask clients for reviews

✗ You're hoping for overnight results (SEO takes 3-6 months to really kick in)
