Find More Private Practice Clients 
with
Therapy Growth Group

Do You:

  • Struggle to get consistent enquiries – and feel that knot of worry every time a client ends?
  • Feel frustrated that your private practice isn’t earning enough to support you?
  • Wonder how to get more clients, even though you’ve tried things like directories and still feel invisible?

If that sounds familiar, I’m here to help

Josephine Hughes discusses whether counsellors should register with the ICO

Getting a steady stream of clients is possible, even when you’ve tried it all before

  • There are people out there, right now, looking for the help you offer
  • You already have what they need
  • When you understand what clients are really looking for – and how to show that you offer it – attracting them becomes easier.

That’s what Therapy Growth Group helps you do.

 

I’ve got 21 clients, so over capacity really, and two on a waiting list.

I wouldn’t have been able to get to this stage without all your wonderful support and resources and kindness and encouragement. I feel like I’ve stopped sleepwalking through the day and have fallen in love with my work as a therapist again – thank you SO much!

Get More Client Enquiries – and Build the Private Practice You Want

If you’re tired of wondering where your next client is coming from, Therapy Growth Group can help.  It’s a supportive membership that gives you the tools, structure and encouragement to grow a thriving, sustainable practice – without the overwhelm.

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to grow, you’ll be guided step-by-step through the 12 Action Steps to Attract New Clients programme – a clear roadmap to help you attract more clients and feel more confident about your practice.  You don’t have to figure it all out on your own.

Here’s some of what’s included in Therapy Growth Group:

  • The Make Your Profile Work training: Write a directory listing that actually attracts clients. This training alone (worth £99) has helped hundreds of therapists start getting more enquiries – and better bookings.
  • Time-saving templates, checklists, and workbooks: No more starting from scratch.  These practical resources help you attract clients and save you hours, so you can spend more time doing the work you love.
  • Weekly accountability calls: Use body doubling to help you move from “I really should do that …” to “I’ve finished!” – with group support that keeps you on track
  • Complimentary access to Find Your Next Five Clients: Feel like you’ve hit a wall?  This course (worth £97) gives you a clear, step-by-step plan to get those first (or next!) enquiries rolling in.
  • Small Group Coaching: Bring your real-life questions, dilemmas or ideas — and get personalised support. These sessions are spacious enough that we can spend half an hour on one person if that’s what’s needed. I’ll help you see things from a fresh perspective, and the other therapists often bring reassurance, insights and encouragement from their own experience. Each session (worth £180 per month) helps you take confident steps forward in your practice.
  • Ethical Client Conversion training: Learn how to help potential clients make a decision – without pressure or pushiness (worth £99)
  • Expert guidance on Facebook & Google Ads: Want to try ads but don’t know where to start? Get guidance tailored for therapists (worth £199).
  • Peer supervision: Therapy can be isolating.  These monthly calls (worth £30) offer connection, support and perspective from others who get it
  • Weekly social media guidance: Not sure what to post?  Get simple, relevant content ideas that help you stay visible and attract enquiries
  • A supportive Facebook group: Ask questions, share wins and connect with a community of therapists who are growing alongside you

    That’s over £500 of value for only £60 per month – roughly the cost of a single client session.  No minimum membership. Stay for as long as it’s helpful.

    About Your Mentor – Josephine Hughes

    I created Therapy Growth Group because I could see counsellors struggling to attract a steady stream of clients to their private practice. This left them feeling:

    • Anxious when a client ends or there’s a gap in enquiries
    • Self-critical and feeling not good enough, thinking it’s their fault they can’t make it work
    • Fearful that they’ll never be able to earn a living as a counsellor and that their years of training may go to waste

    But it is possible to have a successful private practice – if you have the right strategies in place.

    I know exactly what it takes to build a successful private practice. I have more than a decade of experience attracting clients to my own counselling and coaching practice. Since 2018, I’ve mentored hundreds of counsellors, listening closely to what really works when it comes to building a thriving private practice.

    That experience – along with five years of running Therapy Growth Group – means I don’t just share ideas. I support therapists week by week as they put them into action.

    My approach has helped many counsellors go from struggling to fully booked.

    And it’s why I created Therapy Growth Group – to offer practical support, encouragement and guidance as you grow a practice that works for you.

    I believe you don’t have to be perfect to make a real difference – just committed, supported, and good enough.

    Don’t take my word for it.  Here’s what counsellors I’ve worked with say about my help to build successful private practices.

    My practice is now full and I may have to start a waiting list.

    Fiona Hewkin

    Counsellor

    My counselling spaces have all been taken and I’m referring new enquiries to other counsellors and directories on a weekly basis.

    Jennifer Snow

    Counsellor

    I’m absolutely snowed under with work so seemingly I am successful in private practice.

    Lynsey Judson

    Counsellor

    Worried that the ideas won’t work for you?

    Here’s why you don’t need to be:

    • All the strategies have worked for either myself or other therapists I’ve worked with
    • You can get feedback on your ideas and your marketing and support for any difficulties from Josephine and other members of the group
    • There’s also support in the form of templates, checklists and prompts if you’re stuck

    I’m much more confident and I feel I can try new things to be visible and get more clients. I can highly recommend Josephine to help you with your business. It’s given me back my ‘mojo.

    What’s Included in Therapy Growth Group?

    • The 12 Action Steps to Attract New Clients – spend just 15 minutes a week taking action that will lead to new clients
    • The Make Your Profile Work and Find Your Next Five Clients training
    • Structured guidance to find your niche
    • Support for you as you market and run your practice, including monthly Peer Supervision
    • Weekly accountability and coaching calls to help you get things done
    • Templates, checklists and workbooks
    • Weekly social media prompts to help you know what to post

     

    Before starting work with Josephine, I was feeling quite isolated and lonely, with a lack of direction to how I wanted to build my practice.

    Since then, I have built up a network of other therapists, and by joining in the different calls each week, I’ve learnt a wealth of information, rebranded my practice, and rewrote my profile (highly recommend this short course).

    More importantly, I’ve built friendships along the way. It has been an eye-opening year, and long may it continue.

    The past year I’ve now got a full practice, I love what I do, I’ve got a group of people to motivate me when I’m struggling, and I have Josephine, who is like a guiding light whatever the issue.

    My biggest fear was that other therapists would laugh at my questions, but being part of the Therapy Growth Group, there is never such thing as a silly question; there’s no competition; just we’re all there to support and encourage each other. If you’re on the fence about joining, just do it; it will be one of the best decisions you’ll make.

    How much is Therapy Growth Group?

    £60 per month.  You can cancel your membership at any time – there’s no minimum membership period.

    Therapy Growth Group offers a safe place to grow in knowledge and confidence with a community who have similar experiences.  It helped me with practical ways to improve my practice and some emotional ways I could do with shifting.

    Highly recommended.  Getting this kind of mentoring from someone who is steeped in this particular business is worth so much more than generic mentoring.

    How will I get access to the resources?

    They’re hosted on Josephine’s course platform and you’ll receive immediate access when you pay for membership.

    t

    How long does access last?

    As long as you remain in membership

    I’ve found being a member so very useful, my practice has filled up and I feel much more confident about marketing myself effectively.

    What is Make Your Profile Work?

    Make Your Profile Work is a short course you can either follow immediately or as part of the 12 Action Steps Programme.  Every quarter there’s an Implementation Week where you’ll receive feedback from Josephine and your peers as you go.  It enables you to clarify who you’re trying to reach, write in a way that speaks to potential clients and means you’ll be ready to publish a finished profile. 

    This has been such a rich week. I honestly don’t know what my profile would look like if I’d tried drafting it without your guidance and feedback and the feedback from everyone else in the group. You made a very daunting task feel much more manageable. I’m so chuffed to have a complete first draft, which I feel comfortable with. And then ideas and feedback to further enhance it. I’m feeling more confident than I would have been to launch my private practice and put myself out there.

    What Are the 12 Action Steps to Attract New Clients?

    The 12 Action Steps to Attract New Clients are weekly, 15 minute actions designed to help you grow your practice. 

    Short on time? These small, steady steps can still make a big difference.

    Feeling overwhelmed? Just focus on one step a week – each one gives you a clear, manageable action to move your practice forward

    When are the Coaching Calls, and What do they Include?

    There are three regular opportunities each week to get support, depending on what you need and what fits your schedule:

    Alternate Mondays (1-2.30pm)

    These sessions begin with a one-hour focus: either a short training (early in the month) or a practical planning session to help you set goals for the month ahead (later in the month). After that, there’s a group coaching session where you can bring your own questions or challenges.
    These sessions are recorded, so if you can’t attend live, you can still catch up on the training and planning section.

    Alternate Thursdays (7.30-9pm)

    These evening sessions alternate between Peer Supervision and a group discussion around the monthly theme, with a focus on practical application

    Every Wednesday (10.30am-12pm)

    There are two groups running at the same time – an accountability space (for body doubling and focused work) and a group coaching call. You can move between them depending on what you need that day. You’re also welcome to arrive later, at 11 or 11.30, if that works better for your schedule.

    You don’t have to attend everything — just come along to what fits your needs and helps you stay supported.  Some members prefer to focus on the resources rather than the calls and that’s OK.

    A big thank you to Josephine Hughes for all her support in the Therapy Growth Group. My practice is now full, with a flow of client enquiries!

    The monthly payment has been a fantastic investment. All the work on improving my directory entries has paid off – I love the way Josephine is like a human AI, giving relevant, to the point, suggestions in her very kind, human, understanding way.

    The weekly Wednesday meetings have been a great space for me to bathe in ideas from Josephine and the group about how to be more me as I build my practice effectively

    Who is Therapy Growth Group suitable for?

    Therapy Growth Group is suitable for you if:

    • You’re just getting started with your practice and need to find clients
    • You’ve got a private practice but would like to attract more clients in a more consistent way
    • You’d like help with practice issues such as raising your fee, working more efficiently and growing a second stream of income

    Therapy Growth Group has been designed for UK counsellors and psychotherapists and is open to qualified counsellors who meet professional registration requirements, including UKCP “Trainee” psychotherapists.

    I’ve been getting good enquiries that have easily converted into clients.

    Who is Therapy Growth Group not suitable for?

    • Therapists who have no intention of running a private practice
    • Counsellors who do not have a qualification that enables them to practice professionally.  This is usually indicated by registration with BACP or NCPS, or being a Trainee Psychotherapist with UKCP
    • Counsellors and Psychotherapists outside the UK who will find aspects of the course do not apply to their local laws and regulations
    t

    What kind of results can I expect if I join Therapy Growth Group?

    Sadly, there’s no magic wand.  All the strategies recommended have worked for counsellors and therapists who have worked with Josephine – many of whom fill their practice – but running any small business requires resilience, dedication and commitment.

    Counsellors and psychotherapists who work diligently and consistently to implement the strategies in Therapy Growth Group are normally rewarded with a profitable practice. There’s a lot of help within the group to support you in this process – but ultimately, success depends on you.

    I found it so overwhelming thinking of setting up my practice. Having Josephine Hughes as my mentor was a game changer.  It kept me motivated knowing I had someone to report my progress or struggles to. Also knowing I had back up when I got the “not good enough’s” or just didn’t know how to start something made so much difference.  I still miss having Josephine to turn to, many years on!  I would say even if it means staying on at your other job to help you pay for this, it is so worth it.
