What People Say

"As someone who is yet to work privately, I found the workshop to be very informative and provided me with guidance on where to start and the various things to consider. I found it particularly helpful to hear both your journeys to developing private practice and what worked and didn’t work for you as well as the tips. Throughout the workshop I felt very inspired and motivated to start developing my private practice and stop procrastinating! It was inspiring to hear how you both achieved this for yourselves and the various ways you continue to maintain your client base."
