Supervision details

Supervision, Mentoring & Support for Hypnotherapists

Supervision, mentoring & support for hypnotherapists at every stage of their journey.

Running a hypnotherapy practice can be incredibly rewarding but it can also feel isolating and overwhelming at times.

Whether you are newly qualified, building your client base or looking to grow your practice further, supervision and mentoring can provide valuable support, guidance and perspective.

I offer clinical supervision and business mentoring for hypnotherapists, helping you feel more confident in your work while developing a sustainable and successful practice.

Clinical Supervision

Supervision provides a safe and supportive space to:

-Discuss client work and case studies
-Reflect on your practice
-Develop your skills and confidence as a therapist
-Ensure ethical and professional standards are maintained

Supervision is not only a professional requirement for many therapists, but also an opportunity to learn, reflect and grow within your practice.

Sessions are available individually or in groups.

Mentoring & Business Support

Building a hypnotherapy practice involves much more than simply working with clients.

Mentoring sessions focus on the business side of running a practice, including:

-Building and growing your client base
-Marketing and social media
-Developing confidence in your practice
-Structuring your diary and sessions
-Creating a sustainable and balanced business
-Having someone to bounce ideas off and offer guidance can make a huge difference while running your own practice.

I built my own practice from scratch with no external support, so I understand the challenges that come with self-employment and growing a therapy business.

You don’t have to do it alone.

Sessions and Fees:

PAYG:

1:1 (60 minute session)- £70

Group session (up to 3 hours)- £50. Group sessions run three times a month on Monday mornings, Friday mornings and alternating Tuesday evenings/ Sunday mornings.

Monthly Subscription– £40 a month (paid by standing order) which includes either one 1:1 40 min session OR access to one group supervision session per month. You can alternate and choose which you’d like to do each month.

Testimonials

“I highly recommend Katie for supervision, one to one and also in groups! I always finish each session feeling so positive and confident in my practice. No question is too silly to ask, Katie provides solid advice and there is so much support in the group sessions from other therapists.” SB, Scotland.

“Katie is great to work with and one of the major factors behind the growing success of my practice. I chose to work with Katie on a one to one basis, to focus specifically on my challenges and where I wanted my practice to be. The investment has been well worth it. She is always kind, professional, sharing her knowledge, insights and experience in a way that has truly benefited me in terms of both therapy supervision aspects, helping with some very challenging client cases, and business development, covering so many aspects from social media through to in person presentations and what my ideal practice would look like. Working with Katie has given me the confidence and helped me to build the knowledge needed to succeed.” RH, Bath.
