The key to growing your practice is not more marketing.
Yes, getting the word out matters. But it's not where you start. Building a successful practice is about making a meaningful connection. From the moment someone first hears about your work or lands on your website, to their first appointment and beyond.

How it works
"Sara's advice is so simple and clear -
it works, and it just feels like being a caring practitioner."
"This course is exactly what I needed. It literally takes you by the hand and shows you what to do!"
I’ve spent the past 15 years running a full-time Craniosacral Therapy practice, and mentoring other practitioners to grow their businesses. I know what it’s like to try to get your practice off the ground. And I know how hard it is to find the right kind of support.
I also know from experience that it’s totally possible to do the work you love, and fill your practice with the clients you love to work with. Even if you’re ‘not a business person’. Even in times of crisis and uncertainty. You just need to know the steps to take.
Here's a breakdown of what you'll cover during the course:
MODULE 01 - Define Your Difference
You are unique, and that's your superpower. You'll discover and define exactly what makes you and your practice different from everyone else's. It's about so much more than the name of your therapy or services! We look at the power of specialising (without over-narrowing your focus) so your clients can understand what you really do, and why you're the perfect practitioner for their needs.
One of the biggest mistakes we make is trying to appeal to everyone. But not everyone is your client! Once you know who your clients are, it's incredibly powerful (and respectful) to speak to them directly via your website, marketing and conversations. We look at how to put empathy and your client's needs at the heart of your practice-building strategy.
MODULE 03 - Know Your Clients
Whether or not you already have a website, we'll look at how to create a clear and professional online presence (without getting overwhelmed by the tech side of things). Learn exactly which pages and sections your website needs, and how to show a clear ‘bridge’ to working with you...including how to write powerful copy, and the single biggest change you can make to your marketing materials and conversations to create trust.
MODULE 04 - Build A Bridge
MODULE 05 - HOLD A SAFE SPACE
Holding a safe space for someone starts before they've even met you. We cover how to provide an exceptional client experience, from the first contact to the first appointment and beyond. Including tips and advice for how to manage the pre-appointment phase, the initial consultation, your rebooking process and your post-session client-care and communication.
MODULE 06 - SET YOUR BOUNDARIES
How your practice looks and works - your opening hours, cancellation policies, prices and booking processes - is up to you! Having simple systems and clear communication around them is reassuring for new clients, and saves a lot of admin headaches for you. We'll make sure you have everything you need in place, as well as looking at what to say and do when challenges arise. Boundaries and compassion go hand-in-hand, and create the safest possible container for the work you do.
Maybe you're an introvert. Maybe 'networking' just isn't your thing. Maybe you're scared of putting yourself out there. Or you don't really want to be on social media all day. That's okay, because there's no one-size-fits-all approach here! The best way to grow your business is to honour your unique skills, personality and style, and to base your strategy around them. This module is often a turning point for students, because you'll discover that there's a perfect and enjoyable way for you to build your business from your own 'zone of genius'.
MODULE 07 - OWN YOUR STRENGTHS
It's time to combine your big vision with small, manageable steps that take you closer to it every day. Instead of an overwhelming to-do list, you'll create a simple, 3-month marketing plan with weekly steps and bite-sized action tasks. You'll choose the ones that you feel positive and excited about, and that are tailored to YOU as an individual as you expand your practice and your comfort zone.
MODULE 08 - YOUR GROWTH PLAN
Bonus!
When you join, you'll get access to The Resource Library.
Including done-for-you templates, sample consultation forms, scripts for emails, policies for you to edit and adapt, Covid-19 risk assessments, ready-to-use referral requests, great answers to difficult questions, and helpful further reading!
Consistently booking your ideal clients without ever having to push or 'sell' what you do.
Significantly increasing the number of clients who find you through referrals and recommendations.
Able to clearly and confidently articulate what you do, and exactly who you help.
Encouraging The Ripple Effect - a natural process where your clients do your marketing for you.
Focusing on community over competition, and building mutually beneficial relationships.
Following a clear actionable plan to steadily grow your practice.

“THE TEMPLATES ARE GOLD.
IT TOOK ME YEARS TO FIND AND REFINE WHAT SARA GIVES YOU WITH ONE CLICK.”
- LOU LOVEGROVE, YOGA TEACHER
Creating and sustaining a thriving practice is about more than ticking boxes and completing tasks. You need to feel clear on your purpose and your unique strengths and gifts. You need to feel grounded in your natural confidence and self-belief. You need to be able to share the power of your work in a way that feels true to who you are.
The world needs you, and the work you do. What's holding you back isn't a lack of skill or ability. You just need someone to show you what works.
you're in the right place.
"How do you know who to trust and what it's worth investing in? Well, I can wholeheartedly say that this is worth it!
- SOPHIE CAWS, CLINIC OWNER
I've been a clinic manager for 8 years, and have seen first hand the challenges faced by therapists. There are so many talented therapists out there who deserve a fully booked practice - the only thing they're missing are the vital principles this course will teach you! I cannot recommend this course highly enough."
"The best investment I ever made in my peace of mind and business was deciding to work with Sara.
- NANCY MEDWELL, BREATHWORK PRACTITIONER
Sara has an ability to offer solutions that were rooted in my own truth, helping me to feel confident to articulate my vision with clarity. Don't hesitate to sign up for her amazing offering. She is the most generous human I know."
15 years ago, I was just starting out, and seriously doubting I could make it work.
I became a therapist because I believed in helping people - but the endless struggle around 'getting clients' and keeping on top of marketing and selling felt totally at odds with the work. On top of that, other practitioners kept telling me that I should expect struggle - that it would always be hard to earn a living as a therapist.
I didn't believe it. But it took me years to understand HOW to create natural practice growth. The kind that's based on trust and the power of human connection. If I possibly can, I'd love to save you those years of struggle and heartache.

This course is the only one of its kind because...
IT'S DESIGNED WITH THERAPISTS' NEEDS IN MIND
The problem with most trainings out there is they take a mainstream model and apply it to wellness practice growth - with an emphasis on sales tactics and self-promotion. This just doesn't fit with the essence or the ethics of the work we do.
Pathway to a Full Practice teaches you the essential steps to grow your practice, but with a focus on trust, safety and empowerment. Your marketing shouldn't be to be 'separate' from your therapeutic work - it's all part of making an authentic and healing connection with another human.
IT INCLUDES THE FOUNDATIONS OF MINDSET, SELF-BELIEF AND THE POWER OF INTENTION
I've learned over the years that it's not just about knowing WHAT to do, but HOW you do it - taking action from a place of abundance, generosity and service. You don't have to be a self-promoter, a tech wizard, a public speaker or a certain 'kind' of person to succeed. But you do need to believe in yourself, and cultivate a positive state of mind.
We look at the marketing blocks and challenges that are specific to complementary therapists and natural health practitioners, so you can move past the myths that hold you back. We'll also look at the habits and practices that build resilience, and ensure you'll avoid burnout. This has never been more important, at a time of such uncertainty and collective trauma.
This programme includes everything you need to grow your practice with care and integrity.
But the course is only part of it. The rest is up to you.
You'll have the right tools and steps to follow, but it's up to you to decide to apply them...
Choosing to believe in yourself, instead of listening to your inner critic, the voice that says 'maybe you're not cut out for this'
Getting organised and building the habits that will keep you on track
Leaving the random tactics behind, and taking consistent, positive action steps
Getting the support you need to create great systems and processes for your practice
Feeling more balanced, rested, and in alignment with the life you want to create.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the course take to complete?
The course starts on Monday 31st January and is designed to take 8 weeks. A new module is released each week on a Monday. However, if you need more time or something happens in your life, you can complete the training however works best for you. All of the lessons are recorded, so if you prefer to spread the lessons over more weeks, or binge watch several modules in one weekend, that’s fine. It’s up to you, but I recommend taking time to digest the lessons and complete the exercises. Aim to spend around 2-4 hours on the course per week, to watch the videos and follow the exercises and actions steps. You will also have access to the course for as long as you need it. You can re-watch any videos at any time, and set your own pace.
What if I fall behind?
You don’t need to worry about falling behind. Each video lesson is distilled into bite-sized sections, with just the information you need, and the action steps to take – there’s no information overload! The course also comes with lifetime access – this means you can take a break at any time – if you’re away, if life gets in the way, or if you want to go at a different pace. You can also go back and re-watch the module videos as often as you like!
What happens after I sign up and pay?
After you sign up, you’ll receive an email straight away with your login details to access the course dashboard. You'll then receive a separate email welcoming you to Pathway to a Full Practice, with all the instructions you need get started. You can watch the Welcome video and a special pre-course Module. The course itself starts on 31st January - we'll email you the day before to let you know when the first class will be available, and to give you access to the Course Community and the Resource Library!
When can I expect to get more clients / make more money?
I can’t promise you specific results from your practice in a specific timeframe. Nobody can. And I would suggest being a bit cautious about anyone who does. Because we all start at different levels of experience, and in different markets. However, if you’re methodical and you follow the action steps, you will see results! And looking back a year from now, the time and money you invest today will absolutely pay for itself in terms of the results you see in your practice and the confidence you have in yourself as a practitioner.
Do you offer refunds?
If you’re not happy with the course, and if you return all the completed exercises within the first 30 days, we’ll refund your money in full. That’s a guarantee.
How does the course work? Do I need to show up live to all the classes?
Every week, a new module is released including video lessons and resources. The lessons are recorded not live, so you can watch them anytime that suits you. You'll also receive one or two motivational emails each week to help keep you on track! AND you have access to our private online community so you can connect with other students too - this is on our platform, so you don't have to be on Facebook to join in.
