Prosper in Private Practice Summit 13-15 May 2025

The must-attend online event for therapists ready to grow a thriving private practice — with less overwhelm and more confidence.

3 days

25+ speakers

Zero fluff

Just the clarity, confidence, and step-by-step guidance you need to build the private practice you've been dreaming of.

You’ve trained hard, you care deeply, and you’re ready to help others.

But when it comes to actually building your private practice? It feels like stepping into the unknown. Marketing. Admin. Boundaries. Websites. Money. Mindset. Where do you even begin? 


If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure — you’re not alone. And you shouldn’t have to figure it out by yourself. That’s exactly why the Prosper in Private Practice Summit exists — a free, 3-day online event designed to give you the tools, guidance, and reassurance you need to start strong and grow with confidence.

This summit is especially for you if...

You’re a newly qualified therapist or counsellor, or you’ve been working in an employed role and are now ready to build your own private practice. 


Whether you're feeling unsure of where to start or overwhelmed by all the moving parts of running a business, this event is designed to help you step into private practice with clarity, confidence, and support. You’re not alone. And you can do this — with the right support.

Why This Summit Is Different

There are plenty of summits out there — but this one is built specifically for therapists.

TAILORED ADVICE


You won’t find generic business advice or pushy marketing tactics here. Instead, you’ll learn from professionals who’ve been where you are — and found what works.

Stories, insights, and encouragement from people who get it

Each presentation is 20–30 minutes, focused, and fluff-free — designed to help you take real action. And because the summit is fully pre-recorded, you can watch the sessions at your own pace, on your own schedule — perfect for busy therapists fitting learning around client work and life.
