About me
*COVID UPDATE* I offer both face to face sessions, and online.
I am a qualified BACP registered counsellor, supporting both Adults and Children with their mental wellbeing in a safe, non-judgemental environment.
Just as each person is individual, so is the way that our sessions develop. It is really important to me that you feel at ease and able to discuss your needs, so that you can explore and work through feelings and problems in a way that you are comfortable with.
Laddingford Counselling is a beautiful, relaxing place in the countryside, surrounded by nature. Situated only a short distance from Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge and Maidstone. It is easily accessible and yet feels secluded with a break from busy town centres.
My specialties include working with anxiety, depression, bereavement, young people, students, children, and parents.
Please get in touch with any queries you may have.

Member organisations
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.
