Working in Private Practice at The Awareness Centre

I have hired a room at Clapham TAC for a number of years. It’s a great location and a really lovely bright airy room always maintained to an excellent standard. I value the work of the reception team who provide a warm welcome to my clients helping them to have a good experience from the moment they arrive. I have particularly found the ability to hire rooms from 7am helpful to meet the needs of clients who are looking to slot in their therapy sesison before work.

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!

I spent a year at TAC during my training, because of the diversity I was able to be my true self and felt so accepted and at home that I now run my Private Practice from their offices. Again I feel the same experience, if there is an issue, life does happen and things will go wrong once in a while, the issue is dealt with professionally, swiftly and in a person centred manner. The front of house staff are always warm and welcoming, as are all staff members that I have related with. There is a steady and consistent flow of clients. I now truly feel at home and comfortable in my practice. Thank you TAC for all the support I have received, its been amazing.

I value TAC for enhancing my client practice especially reception team . I have full confidence that the clients- my skills would be of the most help to -find their way to me .

Nothing but positive experiences

I thoroughly enjoy working as a private therapist at The Awareness Centre; the relationship I have with this place, & the people who work there, is invaluable

The Awareness Centre is extremely professional and well-run, and provides a welcoming and peaceful environment from which to see clients. The building and rooms are well maintained, well-furnished and comfortable, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Making the transition from placement counsellor into private practice is often perceived as a daunting prospect. At TAC I have found this transition to not only be a positive experience, but one that has been fully supported by the team. The guidance that I received when first starting out in private practice was invaluable and is ongoing. Working alongside the TAC team, as well as low cost and private practitioners, has provided me with a sense of belonging and stability, which is important, as it creates an environment that is supportive and safe to work within. I highly recommend TAC as a positive environment for private practice.

I have found working from the Awareness Centre over the years has suited me very well. I completed my first training placement here as a student back in 2008, and so feel there is some history in the building and my development as a psychotherapist.  My practice has steadily grown and the fact that reception staff can refer directly to me has been a major factor in keeping a healthy caseload going. Staff are responsive and warm, and the flexibility with The Awareness Centre has been mutually beneficial. I respect the fact that Michaela takes an active interest in the many therapists and counselors who work at The Awareness Centre and its satellite clinics.

Working at TAC has been a positive experience. It offers a safe and comfortable environment. Staff are helpful, friendly and professional at all times, putting clients first.
