Working at Leone Centre as an Associate Family Therapist
At Leone Centre, our associate therapists are supported within Leone Centre’s well-established framework, systems, and processes, helping to create a consistent and high-quality experience for both therapists and clients.
We highly value continuity of care for our clients, so it is important for us to prioritise long-term professional relationships that are stable and reliable. Many of the practitioners who work with us have chosen to remain with the Leone Centre for many years, contributing to a sense of continuity, trust, and stability that benefits both practitioners and returning clients.
As a self-employed associate therapist, you will have the flexibility to shape your hours within Leone Centre’s booking framework. Many of our therapists typically offer availability for two days per week, or a few evenings, with the option of weekends if preferred.
Our admin team is the first point of contact for all clients, so you don’t need to worry about handling introductory calls or booking initial appointments.
The admin team will book clients in for an initial paid consultation with you, after which ongoing sessions are arranged easily through our booking system. You are supported by our admin team, who are available Monday to Friday, 9 am – 6 pm and briefly in the morning and afternoon on Saturdays for any queries or client needs.
Our dedicated marketing team works continuously to support practitioners’ visibility and facilitate appropriate referrals. Practitioners are warmly invited to contribute to blog posts and content as an opportunity to share their expertise and enhance their professional profile.
Whether working online via Zoom or in one of our peaceful London consulting rooms, you’ll benefit from a system that takes care of room fees, admin, cancellations, and logistical concerns so you can focus entirely on your sessions.
