Coaching New Therapists
Coaching New Therapists into Private Practice — UK & Online
Ready to start your own private therapy practice but not sure where to begin? At DM Therapy, we offer specialist coaching for newly qualified or early-career therapists, counsellors, and psychologists who want to build a thriving, sustainable private practice.
Our coaching is available UK-wide, with flexible options for online mentoring, so you can access support wherever you are. We also work in person with therapists in Nottinghamshire, South Yorkshire, and surrounding areas.
Whether you’re just starting out or transitioning from another role, our 1:1 sessions are designed to guide you through every step — from setting up your practice to attracting your ideal clients.
Our goal is to give you the confidence, tools, and strategies you need to launch and grow a successful practice while avoiding the common pitfalls that can hold new therapists back.
What This Coaching Involves
Our coaching programme is designed to give you the knowledge, confidence, and practical tools to launch and grow your own private therapy practice — wherever you’re based in the UK. Whether you prefer online mentoring or in-person sessions in Nottinghamshire or South Yorkshire, we’ll guide you through:
- Setting up your business – Understanding legal requirements, insurance, data protection, and professional registration.
- Defining your niche – Identifying your ideal clients and the services you want to offer.
- Building your brand – Creating a professional, authentic presence both online and offline.
- Marketing your practice – Effective, ethical ways to attract and retain clients.
- Managing the business side – From pricing and policies to diary management and record-keeping.
- Sustaining your wellbeing – Strategies for balancing client work with self-care to avoid burnout.
Every session is tailored to your stage and goals, so you get advice and action plans you can implement immediately — no matter where you are in your professional journey or in the UK.
Coaching New Therapists into Private Practice
The journey of hope and recovery
Our Approach to Coaching
We believe that starting a private therapy practice is as much about mindset as it is about strategy. Our coaching is designed to give you both — the confidence to step into private practice and the practical tools to make it work.
Working with therapists, counsellors, and psychologists across the UK, we take a tailored approach that reflects your background, goals, and the community you want to serve. Whether you’re looking for guidance on marketing, pricing, client management, or simply building your confidence as a business owner, we’ll meet you where you are and guide you forward.
Our sessions are collaborative and focused on action. You’ll leave each meeting with clear next steps, personalised resources, and the reassurance of knowing you have an experienced mentor walking alongside you.
Benefits of Coaching for New Therapists
Launching a private practice can feel exciting — but also overwhelming. Our coaching helps you cut through the uncertainty and focus on what matters most.
By working with us, you can:
- Save time and avoid mistakes by learning from someone who has already navigated the challenges of private practice.
- Gain clarity and direction on your services, pricing, and ideal client base.
- Build confidence in running the business side of your practice, not just the clinical work.
- Learn effective marketing strategies that feel authentic and ethical.
- Develop systems and processes that keep your practice running smoothly.
- Maintain work-life balance by setting boundaries and creating a sustainable schedule.
Whether you’re in Nottinghamshire, South Yorkshire, or anywhere else in the UK, our aim is to help you feel prepared, supported, and ready to grow a practice you’re proud of.
