Back in the Counsellor’s Chair: A Refresher Workshop
For qualified counsellors & therapists navigating the journey back to practice after a break
🗓️ Saturday 7th March 2026 | 10am–1pm (Zoom)
You hit the ‘pause’ button on your practice for a reason. Whether you stepped away for family or health reasons, a career change or a sabbatical, the "Counsellor" part of your identity is still there. But coming back after months or years can feel like stepping into a different world.
This half-day Refresher Workshop is the un-pushy, supportive bridge you need - to move from feeling overwhelmed and hesitant, to feeling energised and better equipped to return.
You aren’t doing this alone... You’ll join a peer group of practitioners who are in a similar season of their professional lives, ensuring that you move forward with a community of support.

Tickets: 🌟 NOW ON SALE 🌟 £85
Bonus: Includes an optional Progress & Accountability group call on Friday 24th April (1pm–2pm) to review your next steps and help you stay on track.
Hosted By: Lisa, an experienced counsellor and supervisor who successfully built her own practice from scratch after a substantial break, and helps others to do the same. In designing this workshop, Lisa has distilled her learning into a practical launchpad - creating the exact resource she wishes had been available when she was making her own return.
Eligibility: This workshop is designed for qualified counsellors and therapists.
What we will explore together:
⚡ Rebuilding Confidence: Recognising the unique strengths you’ve gained during your time away, and quietening the self-doubt that often surfaces when contemplating your return to counselling practice.
⚡ The New Landscape: Navigating recent developments in UK practice so you feel current, compliant, and ready for 2026 and beyond.
⚡ Shaping your Practice: Instead of just returning, let’s build a sustainable and 'burnout-resistant' practice that fits your life.
⚡ Theory & Skills: A judgement-free opportunity to look at how to reconnect with the fundamentals of your counselling approach.
⚡ Roadblock Removal: Pinpoint exactly what is stalling your return and create an action plan that feels energising rather than intimidating.
This workshop is open to counsellors from a range of theoretical backgrounds, as it is not modality specific.
Please note that, to ensure privacy for all attendees, sessions will not be recorded.
