Wealden Psychology Institute

I would never advise anyone 'qualifying' here. You pay a lot of money and discover that they are not registered with any recognised exam board. I had a grievance about the exam and sadly discovered this. The printed 'certificate' (after thousands of pounds) is not recognised as a legitimate qualification due to it being awarded by no exam board. Please do not be as naive as me and go to a recognised academic institute, where they will also accept funding (another red flag I missed, when you cant even get a loan to study there). If in doubt call the BACP and ask.

I studied TA Psychotherapy at Wealden Institute , and found my training to be exceptionally stimulating, thought provoking, and prepares you for the wonderful,rewarding, and challenging role as a therapist. When I decided to train as a TA psychotherapist , I considered ,many things, and Wealden ticked all of the boxes.All of my tutors were highly skilled, and with many years of experience, and I can honestly say I received excellent support throughout my entire course of study. My thanks go particularly to John and Joanna for their encouragement and belief in me.

I studied TA psychotherapy at Wealden for 4 years and also completed additional trauma therapy training. Both training experiences were excellent. The tutors are experts in their field - they are very knowledgeable, supportive and friendly and as a result I loved my whole training experience. I have developed so much personally and professionally as a result of my training. I am very grateful for being provided with such a rich experience. Wealden kick-started a wonderful career change for me.

I have been studying here for over 3 years. All my tutors have been outstanding with years of wisdom and experience. We have a great class and there is respect and a good morale with staff and students, it feels like home. Other reviews here seem to represent a very small percentage of unsatisfied students! The UKATA inspection in January 2020 stated that Wealden is a beacon of training for TA in the South East.

Unethical, poorly managed.
