Online Relationship Counselling · Maidstone

In and around Maidstone
Life in Maidstone
As the county town of Kent, Maidstone is a busy administrative and commuter hub, and the daily reach towards London shapes a lot of lives here. Long hours, money worries and the squeeze of balancing work with family can build into stress and low mood that people tend to carry on with rather than address.
In a close-knit town where people tend to know one another, online keeps support entirely private, with nobody to pass in a waiting room.
Maidstone is the county town of Kent, home to Kent County Council and Maidstone Hospital (Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust).
Relationship counselling here, for couples or individuals, slows down the pattern you are caught in and builds healthier ways of hearing and being heard.
The approach is the same wherever you live, so rather than repeat it on every page you can read it in full — the methods, what each session covers and fees — on the main relationship counselling page and on how I work.
Sessions run over a secure, encrypted video link held to the same strict BACP confidentiality as meeting in person. After a free fifteen-minute call to check we are a good fit, you join each session from any private space using a phone, tablet or laptop — no software to install, no waiting room and no journey at either end.

My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally. In Maidstone, you can refer yourself directly to NHS Talking Therapies in Kent and Medway for free NHS talking therapy, with no GP referral needed.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner and stay with the same counsellor throughout; I am glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.

Maidstone questions
Yes. I work with people right across Maidstone, from the town centre and the river outwards, and anywhere else in London & South East, by secure video — no need to travel to Hove, and just as confidential as meeting in the room.
Yes. A great deal can change when one person shifts the pattern; you do not need to attend as a couple to do useful work.
Yes. Online makes it easy for couples in different places, or juggling childcare, to attend together.
No. We look at the pattern the two of you create together and where it gets stuck, not at who is to blame.
A free fifteen-minute call is the simplest place to start — no obligation, just a chance to see if we are the right fit.
