setting up a private practice

Understandably, the aim of many psychotherapy and counselling students/trainees is to set up their own successful private practice.

This way of working provides so many potential benefits, including greater control over your life and time and the ability to choose how you practice and who you work with.

How to set up a successful practice isn’t taught though to any significant degree on most therapy courses. This, combined with the number of enquiries I receive asking for advice, is why I now also offer a one-to-one coaching service for anyone looking to realise their dream and run their own therapy practice.

After more than 10 years now in the profession, I can let you know my experience of how it works and how to set up, build and maintain your practice in the most efficient and effective ways possible.

Together, we can look at:

  • the practicalities of running your own business,

  • how to shape and build the practice you want,

  • explore how social media might help,

  • how to develop your practice over time,

  • how to secure media work, and

  • other potential forms of ‘passive income’

So, make contact now and we can talk about how we might help you

career change Coaching

I receive lots of enquiries about the process, and my experience, of changing to a career as a therapist/counsellor, so I now offer a coaching service to anyone looking to do this. We can explore:

  • how to make the change of career as smooth as it can be practically,

  • all the implications of transitioning to a new career,

  • the kind of issues and obstacles that may arise and work on solutions, and

  • a focus on your psychological and emotional experience of the change
