Why Wealden College

We are an independent College, our whole organisation and focus is about working with people. 

• Diploma in Couselling course accredited by the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP) since 1994 (the first in the South East, and today the only independent college in the area).
• Small year groups, leading to a warm, relaxed and safe environment for learning and growing.
• Strong emphasis on hands-on practical skills.
• Highly experienced and qualified tutors, deeply committed to the development and well-being of the students.
• High tutor/student ratio means plenty of individual support and feedback.
• Theory presented in a clear, accessbile way, using activities and practical exercises as well as informational material.
• Written work seen as developing student's ability to express themselves clearly in whatever career path they take, and not as an 'academic exercise'.
• Creative methods throughout, for new perspectives, and to use with clients.
