Hi, my name is Helen and I'm a qualified and accredited integrative counsellor, with three years of experience offering one-to-one sessions with adult clients. I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients can feel listened to and actually heard as they explore their issues and concerns.
Having delivered over 900 hours of therapeutic counselling sessions, I'm experienced in working with clients to explore and manage a wide range of issues, from anxiety and stress to bereavement, trauma and confidence building.
I've seen first-hand how having a safe and confidential space to explore feelings and concerns allows people to make sense of their situations and achieve more self-understanding and knowledge.
My person-centred approach to counselling integrates aspects of psychotherapy from the humanistic, psychodynamic and behaviourist disciplines. This means I work in a client-led manner that is fluid and the focus in the sessions can move between the past, present and future depending on the needs of each individual.
All of my therapeutic work is underpinned by the individual needs of the client, using methods adapted to support clients on their personal therapeutic journey. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
