First Steps to Your Own Private Practice 2.0*
|
in association with TherapyWeb |
At last! A coaching programme that helps you to move from
the “thinking about it” stage to actually making your dream of having
your very own private therapy practice a reality.
*Revised and updated based on user feedback, and with an additional module on Getting Clients!
Have you been treading water in your current job, wondering how you can make the break and set up on your own,
but unsure how to take those first critical steps?
Have you just started into Private Practice, maybe testing the water,
but you are still uncertain just what it is you need to have in place to build the practice you aspire to?
Or maybe you have your own practice, but need a re-boot to get your business moving again?
Do you:
Feel frustrated in your current job, but lack the confidence to branch out on your own?
Have a small private caseload, but know you want more?
Dream of having the freedom to set your own hours?
Long to be able to work with the clients you want to work with, not the ones you’re told to?
Work long hard hours but feel a lack of fulfillment from your work?
Want to work for yourself, but don’t know where to start?
You know what? You are not alone. More and more professionals are dissatisfied with their work circumstances and aspire to being their own bosses so that they can start doing the work that they want to do and that will give them real job satisfaction. The great news is, now you can!
This programme can help you make your dream the reality you want it to be.

About your Coach & Mentor
Dr Colin Clerkin, D Clin Psych, HCPC-Registered Clinical Psychologist and Coach (AMAC)
Colin has been involved in helping people tackle challenges in their lives for almost 20 years, initially as a clinical psychologist and, over the past four years, as a coach too, working with individuals, small business owners and parents. He spent 14 years in the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK before branching out on his own in 2004 and establishing a thriving private practice in the historic city of Chester, in the North West of England.
Before psychology, Colin spent five years in the advertising industry in Dublin but realised it wasn’t the career choice for him. He then travelled around North America for two years, where, amongst other things, he had an encounter with a bear in Yosemite National Park
and spent time bartending in Manhattan. His bartending experiences re-ignited his interest in people (well, they were New Yorkers!), and so he moved to Wales to study psychology, where he gained an understanding of what works in helping people make the key changes in their behaviour that can impact positively on their lives.
After gaining his doctorate, Colin established himself as a popular member of the psychology community across North Wales, developing his skills and expertise by taking further training, including in coaching, and working with a wide range of client groups.
Colin has been involved in teaching and running workshops in Setting Up in Private Practice since 2008,
sharing his knowledge with fellow professionals eager to make the change to working for themselves.
Attendees at this workshop in the past have commented:
“Very useful, helped me focus on what I can do”;
“Very knowledgeable, lots of practical advice”;
“Left feeling very positive about future plans”
|
And reports back from users of the First Steps programme are equally positive, including: "It was time for me to be challenged in a positive and fulfilling way and whilst only halfway through Colin’s course , Mirror Coaching has already delivered beyond my expectations. I strongly recommend to any of you who are serious about sailing the waters of self-employment or jump-starting your own Private Coaching or Therapy Practice, subscribe NOW". Victoria Field - Victoria Field Coaching "I would highly recommend anyone starting out in private practice to use Colin's 'First Steps' programme. It is both inspiring and supportive. Colin is an excellent and generous coach and wonderful role model for how to run a successful business. The 'First Steps' programme is set up it in a way that identifies and then develops each individual’s aspirations and values. I now have a much clearer idea of what I want my business to look like and the steps needed to achieve and maintain this. It is well worth the money and the effort involved!"

How Can You Get the FIRST STEPS Programme?
So, how do you get your hands on this coaching programme and get started on the road
to your very own practice? And ... what is it going to cost, I hear you ask?
This complete package includes:
My 16-Module Coaching Programme
(including an invaluable Fee Calculator and Simple Business Planner spreadsheet)
Interactive Engagement with me over the course of your programme
through the programme website
Access to the Members Forum
The Bonus Materials Resources File with over 20 document templates
you can start using from the first day of signing up
AND
One 45 minute 1:1 Coaching Session
(telephone or SKYPE) with me at any point
over the course of your engagement on the programme
All of this would usually cost
£297.00
But, thank's to your association with TherapyWeb,
the Full Standard Package is now available to you at a 10% Discount of
JUST £267.00*
For less than what you can expect to earn from just one new client working through their full course of treatment with you,
you get this full programme, with all the added extras thrown in.
The Bonus Materials alone are invaluable in time-savings to you,
but add in the free coaching session and you get a pretty good deal, don't you think?
* But as I am confident that
you'll be totally satisfied with this programme,
I'll let you try it FREE for 10 days!
If, within 10 days of taking up this programme,
you are not totally satisfied with what I've offered you in the programme,
YOU DON'T PAY - and you even get to keep the Bonus Materials!
Simply register and enter your payment details,
but we guarantee that we won't take any money from you until 10 days after that date.
If, in that time, you decide it's not for you, just cancel your payment.
Simple as that.
You're not out of pocket - in fact, you're ahead, because you get to keep the Bonus Materials
So, for a NO RISK investment of just £267.00
(that, actually, will probably be tax deductible within your new business as a training expense anyway),
you can be on your way to creating the private practice that you aspire to,
working at your own pace but moving forward, setting goals and making it happen, at last!
To sign up for this on-line coaching programme,
just click on the Register Now button below.
You'll be taken to our registration page: fill in your details and
in no time at all, you'll be taking your first steps to a private practice of your own.
What About Some More?
If you feel that a 45-minute coaching session might be a good start,
but you would like more input from me to help keep you focused and progressing your business,

the Premium Edition includes a further THREE one hour 1:1 coaching sessions with me,

You get this complete package:
My 16-module programme,
The Free Bonus Materials,
Within-module interaction with me as you work through the programme
Access to the Members Forum
AND
Three 1-hour, 1:1 coaching sessions with me
