I had bi-weekly sessions with Helen for just under a year, and they made a real difference for me. The sessions helped me gain clarity, focus, and acceptance in the areas I wanted to work on. Helen had a wonderful way of knowing when to challenge me and when to be patient and supportive. She brought warmth, humour, and thoughtful insight that I found incredibly valuable. I am really grateful for her time, care, and dedication in supporting me to move forward.

Helen is a wonderful, calm and insightful influence, who challenges you to reflect, see from different perspectives and become aware of your patterns while supporting you throughout that journey. She is incredibly observant and has picked up on moments and patterns in my life that I had never considered before, helping to piece together the puzzle of my behaviour and bringing my actions from my periphery into my conscious awareness. I feel so much more in control and aware of my behaviour, and therefore able to make better choices that lead me to a more fulfilling life. I can't recommend Helen enough - not only do I leave every session with such a deeper understanding of myself, I've had so many pivotal lightbulb moments regarding my behaviour patterns that starting therapy with Helen really has lightened my life and lifted the weight of my past experiences incomparably. Helen presents her insights in such a calm and discussion-focussed way, leading you into processes of self-reflection that continue to develop independently after the session. She has the rare ability to meet you where you are at on that particular day, and gently guiding the session so these realisations appear gradually and naturally. I find our sessions very interesting, inspiring and motivating, and look forward to every one! I feel so much more self assured and in aspects where I thought I lacked confidence, Helen's support and insight has helped me to acknowledge the strength I have had all along, nurture this and actively tailor my behaviour to reach my goals and support myself in the best way possible. In some ways I felt I was running on autopilot, but now I'm behind the wheel and it is incredibly empowering. Thank you Helen for guiding me on this journey of growth and self discovery.

After just a few sessions, Helen’s insights have been invaluable to me and allowed me to view a lot of things in an entirely different light

I've had therapy over the years but have always dropped off after a couple of sessions because I wasn't getting what I needed, until I met Helen. She creates a warm, welcoming, safe & professional space, which is hard to do over zoom, and has really helped me to unravel complex emotions and develop coping strategies when things become overwhelming, all whilst making me laugh too. I love that I can just talk through what's on my mind and Helen can pick out the underlying thoughts & feelings and help me to move forward with more confidence. Thank you.
