Private Practice at The Awareness Centre

Whether you are starting out in your career or are an established therapist, The Awareness Centre (TAC), with locations in Clapham and Tooting, South London, is an ideal choice to develop your private practice. We would like to hear from counsellors, psychotherapists, psychologists and psychosexual & relationship therapists who are ready to join our busy therapeutic community.

We’ll help you to increase your client base through referrals to your private practice at The Awareness Centre, as well as to your private practices elsewhere in London and online. It’s an effective way to grow your client base quickly and professionally.

Lara Melwani shares her thoughts on what it’s like to run your private practice at TAC.

Join our team of therapists

We are looking to recruit Counselling & Clinical Psychologists, Psychosexual & Relationship Therapists or Couples Counsellors, and Child & Adolescent therapists. We are also very interested in hearing from therapists who work with Anger Management, Bereavement, Eating Disorders, LGBTQIA+, and Trauma and from therapists who work in an additional language to support our Multilingual Counselling Service. We are also seeking therapists who are registered with private healthcare providers.

We will refer you clients for face-to-face and online sessions and take the first referral fee for each client.
You will work within a 4 x hour slot each week and can take on additional slots to support your growing practice.
You will need full indemnity insurance and a DBS if you are working with clients under the age of 18.
You will hire a room at TAC, and you manage your own fees with clients. Our in house fee starts from £65 to £130.

Once you join us, we will add your professional profile and photo to our website, where potential clients can browse your details.

Our Counselling Manager offers ongoing support and assistance to all of our private practitioners.

We provide a full-time reception team to manage bookings and your diary and also refer clients to your online practice.

Hundreds of potential new clients are searching for a therapist every week. We’ll help them find you!

What therapists say about working in private practice at The Awareness Centre

I started my experience of The Awareness Centre on an LCCS placement at the beginning of my therapist journey. The support and learning experience I had throughout that time made it well worth the long commute to get there. So much so, that I decided to come back and rent a room as a private therapist. I love the environment of the Centre, with its calming vibe and immaculately clean, cosy therapy rooms and the responsiveness and support of the front of house and management teams have been second to none. I don’t regret my decision to carry on my journey to The Awareness Centre – it delivers on all fronts.

Ann

Hiring a room with The Awareness Centre was a great idea. It has extended the reach of my private practice and provided clients with a calm and caring space in which to be. The process was easy and all the staff have been more than helpful in answering any questions I have had.

Jay

I very much like working with The Awareness Centre. All staff are helpful and pleasant. Small issues, should they arise, are resolved easily. I feel that my needs as a private therapist are understood well. Special mention for all front-of-house staff – always helpful and good-humoured. A big thanks!
