Where passion meets mental health 

Welcome to SFS Training, where mental health matters. I’m Stephanie Faulkner-Smith, a passionate advocate for mental well-being with over 28 years of experience in teaching with the latter years being focussed on counselling and mental health training. My mission is to make every conversation about mental health as natural and comfortable as discussing physical health.

1-1 Counselling Services

As a BACP registered counsellor, I specialise in supporting both adults and children through life’s challenges, including anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and relationship difficulties. Whether you prefer face-to-face sessions in rural Kent or the flexibility of online counselling, I’m here to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for exploration and healing.

Mental Health and Suicide Prevention courses

My training sessions are designed to foster understanding, empathy, and open dialogue about mental health. With a mix of teaching skills, empathy, and a touch of humor, I create a training environment that’s both informative and engaging. I continually update my skills through professional development, ensuring that the support and guidance I offer are rooted in the latest knowledge and best practices. Let’s work together to create a world where everyone feels comfortable discussing mental health.
