About me
Hello and welcome to my profile.
My name is Jane and I offer caring, professional counselling in Tunbridge Wells, at the Salomon’s Estate.
I provide counselling for adults (18+) with a broad range of personal, emotional, or mental health difficulties.
I can work with you on issues including:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Family and relationship issues
- Grief and loss
- Divorce
- Illness
- Redundancy or other major life event
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an Accredited Member of the BACP. This means The British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy recognises me as an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist whose practice meets their higher standard as a competent, ethical, independent practitioner.
I qualified as a Humanistic Integrative Counsellor in 2019, and have worked at Bromley Community Counselling Service and Tonbridge Counselling Service since then. I have experience working with clients from a wide range of backgrounds, with many different presenting issues.
I am also qualified to work online with clients and am a registered member of ACTO (Association of Counselling and Therapy Online).
Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
My background in visual arts enhances my way of working. When words feel insufficient or are a stumbling block, I offer clients alternative ways of expressing themselves. Image cards, drawings and sand tray work can help to access suppressed or difficult material, facilitating the counselling process.
If you'd like to know more, please do get in touch, a text, email or brief phone message are all fine, whatever feels easiest for you. We can then arrange a free 15-minute no no-obligation phone conversation. You can tell me a little about what brings you to seek counselling and ask any questions that may help you decide if I am the right counsellor for you.
