Do you want to move beyond supporting just your own school, create additional income beyond your initial salary, or shift your career while still working with Children…or even Adults?

Drawing and Talking offers an expert coaching and development programme to help you to successfully set up and operate as an independent practitioner.

The intention of the Practitioner Programme is to coach you on the practicalities of operating independently. Many therapists and practitioners struggle with selling their services. This programme helps remove barriers you may have unconsciously put in place that might hinder your success in attracting private paying clients.

The programme will help you to confidently position and market yourself as an independent Drawing and Talking practitioner. Additionally, you can apply what you learn on this programme to market yourself in any other areas of work that would blend into your own private practice to create additional income.

Working within an intimate group of other practitioners you will be coached and mentored by our expert team on how to get started in marketing & selling yourself and your service to the communities you are ready to support.
