For growing your therapy business ...
Have you recently qualified and feeling overwhelmed with where to start with your own Private Practice?
Have you been working Private Practice for a while and have started to lose motivation or feel stuck in a rut?
Have you been working within an organisation and want to branch out on your own?
I can help you to design a Private Practice that suits you, that you are proud of, that is successful and most of all that helps you to help your clients.
Read more to see how I can help you.
I have always worked in the private sector and a lot of the things that will help your business are second nature to me. I started my career in this sector off in a well-known Private Psychiatric Hospital, working in numerous roles within this organisation. I worked directly with patients but also in the Admissions, Marketing and Training departments, gaining a wealth of knowledge and experience.
Since training as a Supervisor, I have realised that I have a real passion and skillset for Private Practice, and I truly believe that therapists should be able to earn well from such a difficult and dedicated career.
I can help you to build your Private Practice from the group up or help you to refresh and refocus what you have already created.
I specialise in working with neurodivergent clients and therapists but I have worked with so many neurotypical therapists too. My practice is naturally neurodivergent affirming (because I am too) and this will benefit you if you have any level of executive functioning issues - I make no assumptions about what you are able to do in business. I understand that you have trained so hard because you want to help people but you also deserve to have a successful practice that financially supports you.
I can meet your style and work in a way that is supportive and affirming of your needs.
