Are you 1 in million who does not like to work for others? Have you always dreamt of starting on own and being own boss, creating employments, making your own money.

Trust that idea, believe in yourself, take a leap and start your own practice. 

While doctors can immediately setup their private practice, you would like to specialise in some area to attract niche segment of patients. If you are a nurse, you definitely need a certification in counselling related course to setup your dream. 

Some prefer better work life balance with minimum number of working hours and good pay.

Counselling in following areas as freelancer or part time job or full time job or own practice are high reward, less work hours. 

1. Nutrition & Dietetics
2. Maternal Child Nutrition
3. Lactation Counselling
4. Fellowship in Nutrition & Dietetics Management
5. Psychology Counselling 
6. Behaviour Therapy
7. Clinical Hypnosis
8. Fellowship in Psychology Counselling, Behaviour Therapy & Clinical Hypnosis
9. Psychiatric Nursing

Every hospital has demand for these roles, but they find it difficult to get qualified people. Hence pay is good. 

Setup Nutrition counsellor or  Psychology counsellor practise

Setting up own practice or freelance counselling is also relatively easier. Just talk to few doctors to develop a referral channel and you will have steady flow of patients. Keep a modest target of 1 or 2 patients per day, which is around 40 to 50 patients per month.  Fee ranges from $100 in metro to $20 in small towns. This can generate a revenue of about $5000 per month with conservative calculation. With your practice flourishing over a year, you can start earning $5000 to 10000 per month with 5 hours per day work.

Fellowship of 1 year is better than 6 months certificate programme.
