Resources for Social Workers in Private Practice

My journey into Private Practice

I didn’t begin private practice with a big business plan.

I began because I wanted more freedom, more flexibility, and honestly… more time to surf.

After years working across child protection, sexual assault services, trauma therapy and mental health, I found myself wanting a way of working that felt more aligned.

Truthfully, there were moments I questioned whether I was good enough to start a private practice at all.

But over time, private practice became a space where I could bring more of myself into the work - not just my clinical experience, but also my values, intuition, spirituality, creativity, and the way I genuinely want to work with people.

This page is a collection of resources I wish I’d had at various stages along the way - practical tools, honest guidance, and support for social workers at different stages of the private practice journey.

Enjoy!
