Great aspirations

Ultimately, I really want to build my private practice and keep it evolving.

I’ll offer some further context to paint the picture…

So, after being made redundant from and despondent with the Youth Service, I left to set up a social enterprise. Long story short it didn’t work because of the dreaded C-word (Covid) but also because of my fear to go all in.

I have had dreams, ideas and plans since before this time but never truly backed myself.

Now, I have plans (see images).

I have been saving up to convert my garage, currently just used for storage. I aim to begin and complete this in the next 6-12 months, doing lots of it myself.

I will document the process and transformation and you will be able to watch this experience from my YouTube channel…or not, the choice is yours.

The next stage in my plan is to develop a mobile outreach vehicle, which will be a sensory room, counselling space and a creative workshop, on wheels.

The name of this venture will be ‘Watch This Space’ and it will be an accessible solution for the services I provide and it meets an unmet need, well certainly in South Yorkshire anyway.

This might be a social enterprise or an arm of my business. I’m waiting to see what happens and what opportunities arise with a potentially new government.

Professionally, I want to continue my development in clinical supervision and offer this as part of my practice.

There is another unmet need for professionals in education and charities who work with young people and feel the pressures, stresses and conflict every day.

I would like to develop non-clinical supervision in this field.
