Some information about the Wimborne Therapy Centre (WTC)

Practical information about the WTC

The Wimborne Therapy Centre opened in May 2008 with the aim of offering a safe and confidential space for therapists and patients / clients to meet. It is located at:

40A East Street
Wimborne
Dorset
BH21 1DX
01202 888353

Being in Wimborne the Therapy Centre is ideally located for a practice covering, Ferndown, Corfe Mullen, Blandford, Merley, Poole, Bournemouth, Holt, Christchurch, Sturminster Marshall and many other towns and villages in this area. Wimborne is centrally located with Shaftesbury, Salisbury and Dorchester being a 30 - 40 minute drive.

The entrance to the Centre is not signed so as to offer confidentiality to those using it. It consists of three therapy rooms which are suitable for seeing individuals or couples. One of the therapy rooms is suitable for group work or family therapy should a therapist need to rent a room for this purpose. It is possible for two of the rooms to be set up for aromatherapists or massage therapists to use.

The predominant use of the rooms at present is for counselling / psychotherapy but the management are keen to hear from any therapist who may wish to have a safe space within which to practice. To see a list of therapists who work at the Centre and to find out a little bit about what they do please go to the page entitled, 'Therapists working at WTC'.

All therapists are asked to supply evidence of their qualifications, membership of any professional organisations and proof of their indemnity insurance in order to be able to rent rooms. This is to ensure that each therapist has reached the required standard to practice within their particular field.

WTCs Reason for Being

Wimborne Therapy Centre was set up initally to offer affordable and flexible therapy rooms for rent by therapists who may be starting a practice in this area. Many other therapy centres or therapy rooms are offered for sessional rental only. Wimborne Therapy Centre allows therapists to rent a therapy room for an hour or a week at a time. There is a scale of charges and therapists interested in renting a therapy room are invited to visit the 'Information for Therapists' page for more information.
