Hi, I hope it is OK to post here. I am a clinical psychologist who is considering starting a private practice. I am just trying to scope what people may want, need, expect if they were to see a psychologist privately. I currently work in the NHS and see many clients there so I have knowledge of what people may expect from a service but I'm just wondering if there is anything different if you went private?
For example, waiting times are an issue in the NHS in addition to the length of time you may be seen for. Would you say that's fair to say? Anything else that is important for you in choosing to go private? Eg, where you're seen, what the therapist is like, what interventions are offered etc?
Many thanks for your feedback, it's to help me consider all the things that are important when setting up a practice and hopefully give people the best help possible.
