Beyond The Therapy Room - Reimagining Independent Psychology Practice

An honest afternoon exploring the realities and creative possibilities of independent practice with a panel of psychologists. Beyond the Therapy Room Reimagining Independent Psychology Practice What happens when psychologists come together to speak honestly about independent practice? Not just the successes, but the uncertainty, the creativity, the challenges, and the opportunities that often go unspoken. Hosted by Clinical Psychologists Dr Indiana Montaque from Olea Therapy and Dr Shadiq Joseph from TWA Psychology Collective, this intimate event brings together a panel of four psychologists working across private practice, the NHS, academia and the third sector to share the stories behind their careers. Rather than offering a blueprint for leaving the NHS or starting a private practice, this event creates space to think differently about what psychological practice can look like. Through personal stories, honest conversations and interactive experiences, we hope attendees leave feeling inspired to shape careers that align with their values, interests and communities. What to expect • Honest talks from psychologists about their journeys into independent practice • Open conversations about money, sustainability, burnout and identity • Interactive "Practice Gallery" • Panel discussion exploring creative career possibilities • Audience Q&A • Networking with fellow psychologists/attendees • A small goody bag included Who is this event for?
