Running a private practice isn’t a walk in the park… more like a walk in Jurassic Park (without the right tools and guidance, of course). It requires staying afloat, staying sane, and staying booked.
That’s where Michelle Staniland comes in.
She’s the mentor coaches, counsellors, and hypnotherapists turn to when they’re done playing small. When they’re ready to stop wondering where their next client will come from. When they want their practice to actually feel like the business it was meant to be.
Michelle co-founded InsideOut Wellness Academy with Rachael Davies, and together, they’ve built a launchpad for heart-led practitioners who want both impact and income.
From Uncertainty to Unstoppable
Michelle’s story is like that of many wellness professionals. At the start, her days were packed with helping clients, yet the bills loomed, the self-doubt lingered, and the marketing piece always felt like a guessing game.
Instead of throwing in the towel, she hit reset. Michelle invested in high-level mentors, studied business strategy, and aligned her personal values with how she showed up professionally. She discovered that scaling a private practice doesn’t require a flashy brand or a big audience. It requires clarity, confidence, and systems.
That’s what she teaches now.
InsideOut Wellness Academy: More Than Just Training
InsideOut Wellness Academy offers accredited hypnotherapy courses, practical business resources, and one-on-one mentorship. But its true value lies in the mindset shift Michelle and Rachael create for every student.
Here’s what they get:
- Small class sizes with real-time interaction
- A curriculum that balances theory and practice
- Personal feedback and business advice
- Ongoing post-qualification support
Michelle’s business mentorship track helps coaches create pricing models that reflect their value, attract their ideal clients, and build services that actually sell. And for those who feel stuck in “hustle mode,” she shows them how to step into authority with ease.
Hypnotherapy and the Mind-Body Business Model
Michelle’s approach combines traditional coaching methods with holistic techniques, including hypnotherapy and NLP. Her background in health and wellness has made her an expert at helping clients make lasting change from the inside out.
This inside-out approach isn’t just a catchy name. It’s the philosophy that drives every course, every tool, and every piece of content at the Academy. Michelle believes that when coaches work through their own limiting beliefs, their businesses transform as a natural result.
This is why InsideOut’s students leave with more than just certifications. They leave with clarity, direction, and a plan.
What Makes Her the “Go-To”?
Many mentors can teach marketing. Few can combine mindset mastery, holistic healing, and solid business strategy. Michelle Staniland does all three without fluff, jargon, or guilt.
She understands what it means to question your worth, your prices, and your path. She knows how it feels to pour your soul into your work while worrying about your income. And she’s built a process that helps others break free from that cycle.
Michelle’s mentorship includes:
- Real-world marketing strategies for solo practitioners
- Income-generation tips for new and mid-level coaches
- Confidence-building tools to eliminate imposter syndrome
- Case study reviews to show exactly how things can shift quickly
Students often say Michelle and Rachael changed their lives, not just their practices. Some went from being underpaid and overwhelmed to earning four figures per client. Others finally had the time and income to travel, rest, or start passion projects.
Private Practice Essentials: The Secret Weapon
Michelle’s course, Private Practice Essentials, is like business school for coaches, minus the debt and the boring lectures.
It’s packed with everything a wellness professional needs to build, grow, and enjoy a thriving private practice:
- Pricing strategies
- Client-getting methods
- Branding basics
- Systems to avoid burnout
“Game changer! I’m now confident to launch my own practice. Simple, effective, life changing,” says Sophie Calderley (hypnotherapist).
Conclusion
Michelle Staniland is more than a coach for coaches. She’s a trusted guide for those ready to turn their private practice into their full-time passion, with purpose and profit baked in.
Her work at InsideOut Wellness Academy continues to empower professionals across the UK and beyond. And her message is clear: You can earn well, work ethically, and build a life that feels good.
You just need the right support.
