Frequently Asked Questions

What is Accountants Therapy?

Accountants Therapy is a community for those working in the accountancy profession – Bookkeepers 👩‍🏫, Accountants 👨‍💼, Tax Advisers 👩‍💼 and more. Some of our members are software developers or representatives, and some are reps from Professional Bodies.

The ethos of Accountants Therapy is to ask questions… and get answers! To work together to look at how we can positively impact our profession and to do it all with a bit of humor ☺️.

We are primarily based on WhatsApp and run special events both online and in person throughout the year.

Who runs Accountants Therapy?

Accountants Therapy is run primarily by Robyn Milstead and Tom Bickle along with a fantastic volunteer admin team. You can read 📖 about them in our Meet the team section. Everyone involved in running Accountants Therapy are working in practice themselves, dealing with the same ups 👍 and downs 👎 as everyone else.

Who can join Accountants Therapy?

Anyone working in the accountancy space is welcome to join us. If you’re not sure whether that applies to you please get in touch and give us a bit more detail.

How did Accountants Therapy start?

Accountants Therapy started in February 2025 after a lively TaxCalc webinar saw our founder get a little frustrated 😣 and call out to other attendees to form a group. You can read more 📖 about this in the Our Story section.

Is it free to join Accountants Therapy?

While we do offer a 1 month free trial, Accountants Therapy is a low-cost membership community. We have deliberately set our fees way below market rates 📉 because for us this is not about making tonnes of cash 💷, it’s about building 👷‍♀️ up the people around us.

That said, if you’d like to give us tonnes of cash 🤑 we could probably do with a holiday 🏖️.

How do I join Accountants Therapy?

Navigate to the Join Now section and purchase your chosen subscription (1 month or 12 months). You will be sent joining instructions imminently. If you have any problems on sign up please drop us a message – contact us.

What if I don't want to join the WhatsApp group but I do want to come to events?

You do not have to join our WhatsApp group to be a member, but we would encourage you to do so as this is where our community is based and where all our important announcements are broadcast… plus you’d be missing out on all the dogs 🐶 in socks 🧦 and holiday pictures 🏖️ in the social group…

We encourage all members to mute 🤫 the group and if you do not want notifications at all you can archive the group.
