Private Practice
Workshop
Live Online via Zoom · 9:30 – 16:30 · £130 inc. VAT
The practical, no-nonsense workshop that gives you everything you actually need to set up and grow a successful counselling practice — from the business side nobody teaches you, to the clinical confidence to thrive.
What You'll Learn
Six Essential
Areas Covered
Clear, practical guidance on the clinical, marketing, and business sides of private practice. Everything your training didn't cover — delivered in one focused day.
Registration & Accreditation
BACP accreditation pathways, what accreditation actually means, and how to navigate the professional landscape with confidence.
Practical & Legal Setup
Insurance, contracts, GDPR compliance, clinical wills, client management systems, website essentials, and marketing your practice.
Setting & Raising Fees
Calculate your breakeven, model profit, have the fees conversation confidently, and know when and how to raise your rates.
Finding Good Supervision
Choosing a supervisor that's right for you, using supervision effectively post-qualification, and building peer support and supervision groups.
Professional Identity & Brand
Clarify your values and specialist interests, build your own brand as a practitioner, and communicate who you work with.
Ready-to-Use Templates
Leave with practical, immediately usable documents — contracts, clinical wills, privacy policies, and more — plus exclusive discounts to practice management tools.
You Leave With Templates Ready to Use
Every participant receives a set of professionally prepared, immediately usable documents — plus exclusive discounts to practice management systems you can implement from day one.
