We are a voluntary organisation and a registered Charity, founded in 2000 to meet the need for a counselling service to cover the gap between Folkestone, Ashford and Hastings, for those that cannot afford private practice; we provide a low cost, donation based counselling service to anyone who can get to us.
The aim of counselling is to help you feel in charge of your own life and to support you in working towards a more satisfying way of living. Many people benefit from personal counselling and the reasons people contact us are varied. Some examples are stress and anxiety, bereavement, sexual/physical abuse, relationship problems and addictions.

What if I don't know where to start or what to say? - No problem. Counsellors know that it can feel very daunting and difficult to open up. The Counsellor will put you at ease quickly and offer a safe, non-judgemental environment in which to talk. I'm not used to showing emotions - what if I get emotional?. - You don't have to show emotion - many people don't.
Without the generosity of our volunteers in giving their time absolutely free, we wouldn't be able to offer a vital Counselling service which helps so many people. Our volunteers perform a range of vital functions such as staffing our Charity shop - Faith, Hope & Charity, which contributes significantly to funding the service.
Anxiety can affect anybody regardless of age or background. Common causes include work, money worries and relationships. it can be truly devastating to feel no longer able to cope. Unfamiliar feelings of indecision and constant anxiety can leave us feeling bewildered, helpless and alone. Pressure is a normal, healthy aspect of most people's lives and helps us remain motivated and focussed.

The receptionist Michelle was nice - that is the only positive aspect of my experience here. The counsellor and I say that word loosely because this woman was so rude and had no idea what she was talking about - she made comments that were rude towards myself, told me not to laugh or smile during therapy with her and moaned about the NHS getting money as opposed to this service. Very unprofessional lady, wouldn’t recommend.
