Practice Rooms
Purposeful spaces for therapeutic practice, supervision, training and group work
​
Our Practice Rooms have been specifically curated for the work that counsellors, psychotherapists and other helping professionals do.
​
Rather than adapting generic office or meeting spaces for therapeutic work, we have thought carefully about the different ways practitioners work: conversation and reflection, creative and expressive practice, sensory exploration, family and small-group work, clinical supervision, training and professional development.
Whether you're looking for a regular space for your clinical practice, somewhere to work creatively with a client or family, or a larger room in which to bring people together, we'd be happy to talk about what you need.

The Sense and Self Room
For expressive, creative, family and small-group therapeutic work
​
The Sense and Self Room offers considerably more than somewhere to sit and talk.
​
Created with expressive and sensory approaches in mind, the room gives practitioners access to a wide range of therapeutic and creative resources, including sandtray, Lego, games, dolls and puppets, therapy cards and sensory resources.
Flexible seating allows the space to change according to the people using it and the work taking place. It comfortably accommodates a family of four and can equally provide a spacious environment for individual therapeutic work where movement, creativity or different ways of communicating might be important.
Practitioners hiring the room are welcome to make use of the therapeutic resources available.
​
Sessional use: £10 for 60 minutes | £15 for 90 minutes
The Reflection Room
A quieter space for conversation and reflection
​
The Sense and Self Room offers considerably more than somewhere to sit and talk.
​
The Reflection Room is our more traditional talking-therapy space, created particularly for 1:1 counselling and psychotherapy and clinical supervision.
Comfortable and intentionally uncomplicated, it offers a contained space where the relationship and conversation can take centre stage.
Additional seating can easily be arranged where the room is being used for couples work.
​
Sessional use: £10 for 60 minutes | £15 for 90 minutes
The Discovery Room
For training, CPD, groups and professional gatherings
​​
It comfortably seats 15 participants plus a facilitator in the round and is the room we use for much of Training for Counsellors' own teaching and experiential learning.
​
We welcome conversations with practitioners, facilitators and organisations interested in using the room for CPD and training, support or reflective groups, professional development and other related activities.
​
We are also very happy to hear from counselling services and other helping organisations looking for somewhere different to bring a small team together for an away day, development day or facilitated team event.
​
Because the ways in which people might want to use the Discovery Room vary considerably, we don't offer a single room-hire tariff. Tell us what you're thinking about and we'll explore what might work.

Our rooms are available to appropriately qualified practitioners and professionals, including counsellors and psychotherapists, clinical supervisors, counsellors-in-training where appropriate, facilitators, trainers and other helping professionals.
​
We approve room users individually. Before using the rooms for clinical or professional practice, we'll complete the appropriate professional checks with you and ask you to agree to our Practice Rooms Terms & Conditions.
This helps us look after the spaces, the people working from them and, importantly, the clients and groups who come through our doors.
Availability
​Practice Room bookings are available from 9:30am onwards, subject to availability, with evening use by arrangement.
Bookings operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Somebody from Training for Counsellors will be present in the building while the rooms are in use so availability will always be confirmed by us in advance.
​
Much of our own training programme is scheduled well in advance, which means we can usually tell you clearly what ongoing or sessional availability we have.
​
You're welcome to enquire about occasional use or a regular arrangement.
