about us
Helping good therapists start and grow
Setting up in private practice is daunting. Websites, bookings, contracts, payments and notes all arrive at once, usually before your first client. ForCounsellors exists to take that weight off your shoulders so more counsellors can practise independently, with confidence.
Who it's for.
- Newly qualified counsellors taking their first private clients
- Therapists leaving an agency or the NHS to go independent
- Established practitioners who want their admin in one calm place
- Counsellors without an existing business or technical background
Made with the profession in mind
ForCounsellors is built in close consultation with practising counsellors, with data protection and clinical confidentiality treated as first principles. We sweat the unglamorous details of secure storage, clear contracts and reliable reminders, so you can trust the platform with the things that matter.
Common questions.
- Is my client data safe?
-
Yes. Client records and clinical notes are encrypted and stored in the UK, and access is under your control. We never sell client data. You can read our full approach on the privacy page.
- Do I need my own website already?
-
No. ForCounsellors gives you a clean, professional website as part of your account. If you already have a site, you can embed the booking calendar there instead, whichever suits you.
