I have had a few interesting experiences in my life. The hardest one I had to face, I needed help with. Not thinking I needed much help I’ve come to recognise that I needed Alice’s input more to support me than to ‘fix’ the issue. I could not of made it this far without true support. Still on the journey. Hope to see everything through to the end. With Alice by my side. Thank you.

I honestly can’t recommend Alice enough. I first came to her some time ago and, when I recently felt I needed a little support again, I knew straight away that she was the person I wanted to go back to. She is so warm, kind and easy to talk to, and I’ve always felt completely comfortable and understood in her sessions. Alice has a lovely way of helping you work through things without ever making you feel judged or pressured. I’m genuinely very grateful for the support she’s given me and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a counsellor.

After an experience through the NHS that was "not so great," I'm glad to say I found Alice and she's been amazing. Hard to describe the kind of difference a good counsellor/therapist can make to someone who hasn't either had or needed one, but it's given me a second chance at a life I didn't realise I'd given up on. Not sure how you put a price on that, really.

There are not enough words to say how thankful I am that Alice came into my life. Just over a year ago I was in a very dark sad place where I honestly felt my world had imploded, Alice helped me see through the pain, anxiety and darkness. I am now in a place where I have hope and light. I cannot put into words what it means to have someone you trust implicitly that guides you through the very darkest moments. Thank you so very much Alice. PS. I hope I have made myself clear people. This woman is amazing!

Absolutely highly recommend Alice Farmer Counselling

Welcome – I’m Alice,

Counselling in Maidstone & Online

I’m Alice, a qualified Integrative Therapist in Maidstone, Kent, dedicated to helping you navigate life’s challenges with compassion and clarity. I believe in empowering you to discover your inner strength and resilience through personalised, integrative therapy tailored to your needs.

My approach uses evidence-based therapeutic models, including Humanistic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Therapy. This allows me to provide a flexible, tailored counselling experience that supports your personal growth and emotional wellbeing.

I’m a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and adhere to their professional and ethical standards. You can trust that your therapy is conducted in a safe, confidential, and respectful environment.

Whether you need help with anxiety, stress, relationships, or personal development, I’m here to support you.

WHY I DO THIS

For me, counselling isn’t just a profession — it’s personal. My path into this work began long before my training. Growing up, I saw how mental health struggles can ripple through families. I also saw how, with the right support, people can heal — and that healing can transform many lives.

As I faced adulthood challenges, I sought counselling. Sitting on the other side of the room gave me a profound appreciation for being truly heard and understood. It was a humbling, life-changing experience that strengthened my belief in the power of human connection and the courage to ask for help.

That experience drives me every day. I do this work because I know how it feels to seek clarity, hope, or a space to breathe. I want to offer others the compassion and understanding that helped me find my footing.

At the heart of my practice is a belief: when we feel seen and supported, we can heal and grow in ways we never thought possible.
