What's included

This year’s conference is for supporting practitioners just starting out in Private Practice as well as those who are experienced in the field. The conference theme ‘How will you navigate your journey through Private Practice?’ contains content with a reminder of the basics, and informative sessions to help you flourish in today’s market.

Workshops will take you on a journey through the process of setting up, running, and then eventually closing a ‘typical’ private practice in the counselling and therapeutic line of work.

Relevant signposting and clinical suggestions around contracting and adhering to ethical and governing body requirements will also be addressed.

Additionally, the conference provides an opportunity to network with peers, with a space to share and learn from other members experiences, challenges, and successes.
