Buying a psychologist or psychotherapist clinic can be a lucrative business venture due to the increasing awareness of mental health and changing attitudes to therapy. Nearly a third of people in the UK have had therapy over the last 12 months, with many people using private clinics due to long waiting lists for NHS mental health services.
The increasing awareness of the benefits of therapy also makes it an opportune time to put your counselling business up for sale. We help you value it, market it to the broadest range of prospective buyers and negotiate to maximise your return.
Whether you want to buy or sell a counselling business, our experienced business sales agents are here to help you navigate the process and find the right deal. Call 0113 340 9840 or get in touch to discuss your circumstances and start the process of buying or selling a UK psychotherapist clinic.
A key decision when buying a psychotherapist clinic is whether you want to own a leasehold or freehold business, as there are some significant differences between them.
It is more common to find psychologist clinics for sale on a leasehold basis. In a leasehold deal, you will not own the clinic; instead, you will take over an existing rental agreement, and you may have the opportunity to negotiate new terms with the owner. This type of deal offers more flexibility for relocation when the lease ends and typically involves a lower initial cost.

When you buy a clinic on a freehold basis, you own the physical building. That can be a good option if you are sure about the location and have the financial means. That is because it provides the long-term benefits associated with commercial property ownership, such as capital appreciation.

“With mental health demand at an all-time high, psychologist and psychotherapist clinics offer strong growth potential, making them valuable acquisitions and rewarding sales opportunities for well-positioned professionals and investors alike.”

If you have a psychotherapist business for sale, the first step is to have it professionally valued. That will give you a clear indication of your potential return. A RICS-accredited valuer will consider the value of any assets, such as the premises and equipment. They will also examine its profit, turnover, staffing costs and EBITDA to determine its trading potential as a business.

If you are ready to retire, want a new challenge or are relocating, selling your psychotherapy clinic as a going concern is the most lucrative way to dispose of it. We can facilitate that process with a professional valuation, a high-quality listing and marketing to new and existing business buyers. We also provide professional advice throughout the process.
On the other hand, if you want to buy a counselling business, we can guide you throughout the process, from identifying and researching potential opportunities to negotiating the right price.
