Mindsets: As members of a helping profession, we can find it difficult to balance our own needs with those of others. At Business of Counselling we believe counsellors are best able to support others when they feel well-supported and secure. We believe a pleasant working environment and a decent wage are essentials, not luxuries and are happy to promote this growth mindset.
Tools: Developed by the designers and brand strategists behind Lifetime Therapy, your Business Toolkit includes digital business tools and resources that are worth the workshop fee alone. From choosing the right brand name to launching your website, our specialists focus on the skills and tools that are most relevant to your counselling business.
Support: As independent business owners, we understand how important it is to share ideas and experiences in a safe and supportive space. Our workshop takes place in an atmosphere of honesty and acceptance where we encourage each other to test ideas and voice concerns. When the workshop is over our conversations can continue online where our private support group enables you to share experiences and extend feedback and friendship.
Led by Malachy Dunne, who bring many years of successful teaching, counselling and supervisory experience; and brand strategist and marketeer, Kurt Trew.

“I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and found it extremely useful to start a new counselling practice. We were given many tools and lots of insight with which I left feeling much more confident than before. I highly recommend it.”
“I attended this workshop in 2nd gear... I left in 5th! The workshop exceeded my expectations as it was both informative but also motivational. I arrived with the intention of setting up a slowly evolving private practice — I left with much bigger intentions and tapping into an ambition that I thought I had left behind me.”
