When counsellor Gemma Anderson started her training, she never imagined it would lead to a thriving private practice. A teenage mum who once worked as a cleaner, Gemma shares how she built a successful practice without a website or social media - just through her counselling directory profiles and a down-to-earth approach. Her advice? Feel the fear and do it anyway – but ask for help.About this episodeIn this honest and encouraging conversation, Gemma talks about:What first drew her into counselling - and the self-doubt she had to overcome.How life experience shaped the kind of therapist she's become.Why she offers a half-price first session and focuses on being approachable and relatable.How she maintains a steady income by combining counselling with part-time work.Her practical routine for keeping her directory profiles visible and bringing in new clients.The importance of asking for help rather than trying to do everything alone.Gemma's story is a reminder that there isn't just one way to build a counselling practice. You don't need a slick website or constant social media posts - just a clear, authentic presence and the courage to keep going.You can read Gemma's profile HERESetting up in private practice?

Email counselling is often misunderstood - some therapists worry it lacks depth, feels impersonal, or that clients simply won't want it.In this episode of Good Enough Counsellors, I'm joined by Chloe Foster, humanistic counsellor, trainer, and founder of Email Counselling Academy, to explore what email counselling really looks like in practice - and why it can be a powerful, ethical, and deeply reflective way of working.Chloe explains:What email counselling actually involves - the structure, boundaries, and timing that make it safe and professionalHow counsellors use their skills in written form to create depth and connectionWhy clients do want email therapy, and which groups find it especially helpful (from neurodivergent clients to parents and shift workers)Common objections therapists have — and how to address themThe risks of offering email counselling without specialist training, including contracting, secure systems, and managing risk safelyChloe also shares how her passion for accessibility and ethical practice led her to create the Professional Certificate in Email Counselling - a six-month course for qualified counsellors who want to develop these skills properly. You can access the free quiz HERE and details about Email Counselling Academy HEREIf you've ever wondered whether email counselling is “real therapy”, or if you've been curious about diversifying your practice, this episode offers reassurance, insight, and inspiration. Key Quotes“Email counselling isn't just typing back and forth - it's a structured, therapeutic exchange with clear boundaries.”“Clients often go deeper through writing because they have time to reflect and choose their words.”“The more accessible therapy becomes, the more people we can reach.”Setting up in private practice?

Self-disclosure is something many therapists are taught to avoid in the therapy room - so no wonder it feels confusing when it comes to social media. Should you share personal details? Is it unprofessional to post a photo of yourself? What if other therapists judge you?In this episode of Good Enough Counsellors, I unpack the fear of self-disclosure on social media and how to approach it safely. I share some of my own experiences - from being terrified teaching peers for the first time, to hitting “publish” on a podcast that felt very personal - and how honesty often builds more connection than hiding ever did.We'll cover:Why therapists fear self-disclosure (and why it feels “wrong”)The difference between professional, personal, and private disclosureA simple checklist to help you decide what's safe to shareHow small glimpses of your real life make you more relatable to clientsPost ideas for November where you can test safe self-disclosureClients don't need us to be perfect - they need us to be human. And with a thoughtful approach, you can use self-disclosure on social media to build trust and show people you're someone they can talk to.If you'd like support in working out what to post and how to share safely, you'll find plenty of encouragement and practical help inside Therapy Growth Group

This week, I'm chatting to Kroy Ryder, an autistic therapist who shares his story of training, self-discovery, and building a private practice that works because of who he is - not in spite of it.Kroy is open, honest, and full of gentle humour as he talks about everything from being the quiet boy who watched from the sidelines, to finally realising he didn't need to mask or fit in to be a good therapist.If you've ever wondered whether being neurodivergent might hold you back in private practice - or you're just trying to work out how to make it all fit - this is a lovely episode to remind you that there is a way forward, and it doesn't have to look like anyone else's.In this episodeHow Kroy's autism diagnosis shaped his journey into private practiceWhy he stopped trying to sound like everyone else in his profileThe moment his niche found himRejection sensitivity, endings and learning to let clients goSmall but powerful ways he adapts his therapy room for ND clientsWhat he'd say to anyone doubting if they're “too different” to do this workTo find out more about Kroy, visit his website HERELike Kroy, I've found that neurodivergent people are drawn to work with me - so I aim to make Therapy Growth Group supportive for people who feel overwhelmed and aren't sure where to start.

What does it really mean to trust what your clients tell you — especially when their experiences challenge what you've been taught, or don't fit into traditional therapy frameworks?In this episode, I'm joined by pluralistic therapist, trainer, and writer Nicola Blunden to explore how power, voice, and identity can shape conversations — and why developing an awareness of epistemic injustice matters for all of us.We talk about:what epistemic injustice is — and how it can show up in therapythe impact of therapist assumptions around diagnosis and identityhow to co-create therapy with clients who experience themselves as having multiple parts (sometimes diagnosed as Dissociative Identity Disorder)the fear therapists can feel about “getting it wrong”and how to begin doing the work without retreating into guilt or defensivenessNicola also shares reflections from her upcoming book around co-producing knowledge in pluralistic therapy, and invites us to consider what it means to work with clients — not over them.This is a rich and thought-provoking conversation about power, trust, and staying open to what clients know about themselves.You can reach Nicola via her website HEREYou can also find me here:The Good Enough Counsellors Facebook GroupJosephine Hughes on FacebookJosephine Hughes on YouTubeMy website: josephinehughes.comSetting up in private practice?

In today's episode, I'm joined by trauma therapist, supervisor, and trainer Maaike Beech. With over 18 years of experience in the field, Maaike shares her personal journey into trauma work and the vital lessons she's learned along the way - from understanding why talking about trauma doesn't always lead to healing, to how we can create the safety clients need before any processing begins.We explore the real risks of re-traumatising clients, what makes trauma therapy different from general talking therapy, and how therapists can protect their own well-being when doing such emotionally intense work.What we cover in this episode:Why traditional talking therapy isn't always enough for traumaThe most common misconceptions therapists have about trauma workWhat to do when your clients don't seem to be improvingHow to build safety before trauma processingHow trauma lives in the nervous system - and why that mattersSelf-care strategies for trauma therapistsIf you've ever felt unsure about working with trauma - or worried you're not doing it "right - this episode is here to reassure and resource you.

Many new counsellors worry they aren't “sorted enough” to be a good therapist. But what if being real about your struggles is actually what helps you connect most with clients?In this episode of Good Enough Counsellors, I'm joined by Samantha Lee, counsellor, trainer, and creator of the Me, Myself & I inner child course. Sam shares how she moved past the myth of the perfect therapist and built a successful private practice by showing up authentically – both with clients and on social media.We talk about:Why the idea of the “perfect therapist” is a damaging myth – and how embracing your humanity makes you more relatable.How to use social media as a therapist without being boring or “too professional.” Sam explains how sharing her poetry grew her following and helped clients feel safe.Inner child work for therapists and clients – why it's powerful, and how it helps us understand our reactions and build resilience.What private practice success really looks like. Sam explains why you don't have to see 20+ clients a week to be a successful counsellor, and how to pace yourself without burning out.Self-care for therapists – including practical ways Sam looked after herself while managing family life, grief, and building her practice.Sam's story is a reminder that you don't need to be perfect to be a good therapist. By being open and authentic, you can build deeper client relationships, attract followers who resonate with you, and create a private practice that works for your life.Find Samantha HERE on Facebook, and for her course and further details, HERE on her website.If this conversation has resonated with you, please share it with another therapist or leave a review on your podcast app - it helps more therapists find Good Enough CounsellorsSetting up in private practice?

What if you don't believe you can be a private practice therapist? In this episode, Fi Hewkin shares her journey from doubting her abilities to building a successful therapy practice. We talk about overcoming imposter syndrome, making your profile sound like you, and why there's room for everyone - even in a crowded market.When Fi Hewkin first considered becoming a therapist, she was convinced she couldn't do it. Growing up being told she wasn't academic, leaving school with three O-levels, and believing she'd never be “professional enough,” private practice felt out of reach.In this episode, she shares how, despite years of self-doubt, she slowly built her confidence - and her private practice. From that first directory profile that didn't sound like her, to embracing her authentic self (complete with pink hair and DMs), Fi's story is an honest and encouraging look at what it really takes to succeed.We talk about:How Fi shifted from “I can't do this” to running a thriving practiceWhy making her profile sound like her changed everythingThe importance of authenticity in therapy marketingOvercoming the fear of charging clients and raising feesBalancing a busy client load and recognising personal limitsPractical marketing steps Fi used to get clients (and what she avoids!)How running a low-cost community project keeps her groundedIf you've ever thought, “I'm not good enough to make this work,” this conversation is for you.Find Fi at her website or her Facebook pageSetting up in private practice?

In this episode of Good Enough Counsellors, we're diving into the third “C” of social media success for therapists: Community.It's tempting to think of social media as just another marketing tool, but for many people, it's a lifeline - a place to feel seen, connected, and understood. And as therapists, we have a unique opportunity to create that safe space online.Takeaways:Why community is one of the most powerful ways to attract therapy clientsHow giving (not numbers) is the heart of community-buildingThe mindset shift that helps you get past the “cringe factor” of sharing your workWhy showing your real, imperfect self builds trust and connectionHow engaging with others (even in small ways) helps grow your reachThe importance of not broadcasting, but building relationships onlinePost ideas for September 2025September Awareness Days:World Suicide Prevention Day – Wednesday, 10th September 2025National Inclusion Week – Monday, 15th to Sunday, 21st September 2025Buy a Book Day – Sunday, 7th September 2025Live Creative Day & Colouring Day – Sunday, 14th September 2025World Gratitude Day – Sunday, 21st September 2025Fight Procrastination Day – Saturday, 6th September 2025Setting up in private practice?

Jeremy Sachs joins me to explore how identity, masculinity, and shame shape male survivors' healing — and what therapists need to know.In this episode of Good Enough Counsellors, I'm speaking with therapist and author Jeremy Sachs about his upcoming book, An Intersectional Guide for Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse and their Allies: Masculinity Reconnected (Routledge, July 2025).Drawing on years of experience running recovery groups for men, boys, and trans survivors, Jeremy brings a deeply compassionate and intersectional lens to a subject often left in the shadows.We talk about how myths about masculinity, cultural shame, and systemic failure can all affect whether survivors seek help — and how they experience it. Jeremy also shares practical reflections for therapists and allies who want to work more effectively with male clients.⚠️ Content warning: This episode includes discussion of sexual abuse, trauma, and the failings of healthcare and justice systems. Please listen with care.Takeaways:Why Jeremy wrote this book — and how male survivors shaped each chapterWhat we mean by masculinity, and how cultural expectations harm survivorsThe role of shame, silence, and developmental trauma in male experiencesHow Black men and trans men may face unique stigma and barriers to careWhat “intersectionality” looks like in real therapeutic workWhy disclosure is complex — and how therapists can respond with empathyThe idea of “sexual selves” and how Western norms disconnect men from their bodiesWhat transformative justice is — and why some survivors seek it outside systemsThe essential role of allyship and community in recoveryYou can find Jeremy and order his book here: https://jeremysachs.comSetting up in private practice?

Are you a collector? Do you have a passion for dishes, or linens or something else? Let's talk about how to collect without becoming a hoarder. What are the do's and don'ts of collecting?First, try to curate your collections so that you just have your favorite pieces, the best of the best. You don't need a hundred items to make it a curated collection. Next try to do a write up on the items for future generations. Why are you collecting the items? What is their importance to you or your family? Make a note of anything of a large monetary value so your family will know. If you suspect your collection is worth a lot of money, have it appraised, then consider securing a rider on your insurance policy for the items, so they will be covered in case of loss.We also encourage people to display their items and if possible, use them. I collect dishes, and I try to use them often. Boxing things and putting them in the attic is not a good way to enjoy them.We are a part of the Amazon affiliate program, and if you make a purchase we can earn money.
