Creating your Private Practice

A programme of creative writing exercises to help you envision and achieve your private therapy practice

Creating your Private Practice

Are you:

  • Starting out or expanding in private practice as a counsellor or psychotherapist?

  • Recently qualified or soon to qualify?  

  • Struggling to attract enough clients, or make a sufficient living from counselling?  

  • Feeling isolated as a sole practitioner?  

  • Interested in creative approaches to working all this out?

If so, this course could be a good fit for you.

Creating Your Private Practice is a programme of creative writing exercises designed to help you envision and define your goals for your counselling practice; to clarify your strengths, skills and interests; to recognise and address your blocks; to relate all this to practical matters and plan a way forward.  

People sitting in rows, some reading notebooks and others reading books, attending a lecture or seminar.

When and Where

The course is planned to run in Bath and online from September 2025, and in Cirencester from January 2026. Further dates and locations will be offered; please get in touch to register your interest if you would like to hear more. 

You will share six 3-hour evening meetings with a group of 6-12 people, potentially creating a peer group that may serve you long after this course.
