Our North London Therapy Rooms
I used to think doing 'business' was always tainted, that there could be nothing pleasant about it, because the pleasantness was faked in order to sell something.
But the marketplace itself is as old as the hills, and I found you could trade in a way that was truly gratifying for both sides. It's this spirit that runs through the Sanctuary rooms.
Quality From The Ground Up
We were passionate about quality when we had Sanctuary Therapy Rooms refurbished and the calibre of the fixtures and furnishings. Double-thick soundproofed walls and pristine rooms were the subject of intense focus. There is nothing left of the original insides of the building that we bought in 2024.
Come and visit
Please do come along and see if you would like to join. I'm happy to offer mentoring to therapists. We draw on 15 years of experience of running a group practice to support you in increasing your client-load.

Possible concerns therapists have
​For some therapists, working in a new consulting practice can feel initially challenging. In some respects, it's akin to moving house or office to a new workplace where you encounter a new vibe and atmosphere in an unusual environment that may take a while to adjust to.
Firstly, there's being in the right space. Somewhere quiet, luxurious and serene. Somewhere that separates your workspace from your living space, the photos on this page give you some idea, although only a visit will tell you if it's as tranquil as we claim!
Then there's sustaining an optimal level of client numbers.
We can resolve this better together. Rob Finley, founder, shares his experience to explain how:
"For years after finishing training, I floundered. I rented a room for 3 hours a week, but I only saw one client for one session in over 2 years of renting the space. After another couple of years of floundering, my practice inexplicably grew five times over. I went from having 2 clients to 10 in a six-week period. In one day alone, I did four assessments. And this was some months into the biggest economic recession in decades, the crash of 2008.
My website had remained untouched for two years, and I'd had no referrals from colleagues or my supervisor. I hadn't seen a business coach, and I didn't have a marketing background.
An energetic flourishing had occurred for me. It had boosted my energy levels, but in a way that was invisible to the outside world. I have had optimal client numbers ever since 2008. Since then, I've learnt to steer that state of flow, making allowances only for times when I was needed elsewhere (for instance, when I had kids).
How did my success happen? Because I entered a flow state.
Regardless of your training background, you are most likely familiar with the idea of 'energy'; whether we'll attract clients or not, or certain types of client issues, dependent on something in the collective field; that we unconsciously put something out, something that is not on our website descriptions, that clients pick up on and respond to, also unconsciously.
Lastly, there is the isolation that working solo from home or in some generic room rentals - can bring.
Collective flourishing:
How can Sanctuary Therapy Rooms help with this? Well, we can't. Not alone at least. But we can work better together. The idea that we compete for clients gets turned on its head when we engage in collective flourishing.
