Lesley Barratt Relationship Counsellor MBACP
About me
Hello, and thank you for visiting my page. I'm an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist with over 10 years experience across my private practice, Relate and schools counselling. I have a Masters in Relationship Therapy and an Advanced Diploma in Couples Counselling and am registered with the BACP.
Feeling anxious, depressed or sad, struggling with life and self esteem? I work flexibly, drawing on a number of different approaches to find a way that best suits you. I provide a safe, empathetic and confidential space where you can talk things through without being judged, and be listened to with understanding and compassion. My clients tell me they find me personable, easy to talk to and that they feel understood and respected in our sessions.
I work with couples, families, individuals, and children aged 11 - 18 in Brenchley, Tonbridge, Tunbridge Wells, Paddock Wood, Horsmonden and the surrounding areas.
If you feel uncertain please call me free of charge to ask any questions and discuss your needs:

Member organisations

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
