You’ll have space for the real fears therapists carry
Because starting a practice isn’t just practical—it’s deeply personal.

We all work at different paces, so I want to offer flexibility. Some people may work through the sections in a few weeks, others may take longer so I am offering a per session price, rather than a package
Sessions can be weekly, fortnightly or monthly if you would preferred (availability dependant)

60 minute session - £45

A Mentoring Space Designed for You
I have been where you are, and felt the overwhelm of where to get started. I saw online groups for setting up private practice, but they lacked a personal touch and the actual links needed to move forward. I wanted to offer what I have learnt along the way to help others, so I created From Qualified to Confident. Together let's build a practice that feels ethical, sustainable, aligned with who you are, and grounded in confidence and clarity. This is not generic business coaching. This is personal, supportive mentoring tailored to your pace.
