What’s covered in this course?
-
Module 1
What are programs looking for in candidates? We will explore the differences between PhD or PsyD programs and master’s programs, as well as how MFT, counseling, and social work programs differ from psychology or other graduate programs.
-
Module 2
How are you being evaluated as a candidate? In this module, we’ll look at how applications from career-switchers might be evaluated differently than new graduates. We will also review common applications requirements and how programs use each component to assess you as a candidate.
-
Module 3
Your application is your chance to tell your story—what I call your “applicant narrative.” You’ll start to understand how to use each application component to strategically craft a narrative that proactively addresses weaknesses. I’ll also share common traps and mistakes to avoid in your application!
-
Module 4
I’ve created an example candidate that we will review together. I’ll share how I would guide this candidate to strategically craft a compelling application for graduate school, including what I would tell him about what to write in his essay.
-
Module 5
The essay or personal statement is often the most overwhelming part of the application. I’ll go over how to structure and write an essay with a mind to what admissions committees are really evaluating. We’ll explore my favorite tips and tricks to make your writing stand out!
-
Module 6
We’ll end with an overview of the entire course and my best attempt to obliterate any imposter syndrome that might be showing up for you!
Submit your application with confidence.
Applying to graduate school can feel like you’re throwing spaghetti against the wall to see if an admission committee likes anything about you. My approach to crafting an application strategically assesses what a program is really asking for, then gives you the tools to create an applicant narrative that answers the real questions about who you’ll be as a student and future therapist.
Learn about what’s being evaluated.
In over 90 minutes of video lectures over 6 modules, I’ll share my approach to applying to graduate school that I share with almost every single one of my private coaching clients. You have lifetime access to the course, so take as much time as you need!
Apply this approach to a case study.
I’ve created an example applicant and I’ll show you how I analyze his application components and the program to which he’s applying. Then I’ll show you how I would guide this applicant in strategically crafting an application that optimizes his chances of admission. You can download his application components, including the essay I would encourage him to write.
Craft your own applicant narrative.
By the end of the course, you’ll have the tools to strategically craft your own application for the programs of your choice, and I’ll share my thoughts on how to overcome any imposter syndrome you might still be experiencing!

FAQ
-
In my course, “How to Strategically Craft a Compelling Application for Graduate School,” I share everything I tell my private coaching clients about my approach to applications and especially essay writing. I sincerely think it’s enough for most people to get a really good idea for how to strategically apply to graduate school. But I’ve worked with enough students to know that it’s easy to get bogged down in your personal story and feel very uncertain about what the best strategy for YOU is. If that’s how you feel, then private coaching or my editing service might be a better fit.
-
If you enroll in the application course but still feel like you could use help directly from me on your application, I offer two discounts: $50 off one hour-long coaching call or $100 off Editing or Proofreading services.
-
In a one-hour coaching call, I’m trying to balance sharing my approach to the application process with answering your questions. There’s often not enough time to do both 100%. My hope is that after taking this course, you’ll actually have enough information to confidently submit your application without any more help from me. But if that’s not the case, you can get a discounted rate on a coaching call and I don’t need to spend any of our time together explaining everything in the course—you’ll already know it! That should make giving you personalized support way more efficient.
-
I don’t offer refunds on this course. If you’re hesitant about purchasing, please share your concerns with me and I’ll let you know whether I think it’s a good fit or not.
