Please contact me for availabilities
Each session is 50 minutes.

Hi, I’m Helen.
I am a qualified counsellor as well as a registered nurse and a menopause practitioner.

Life can be difficult and challenging at times, feeling overwhelmed with a mixture of thoughts, experiences and emotions that can be hard to untangle on your own.


I offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can take time to talk, pause and be heard. 

I work with a person-centred approach, recognising that everyone is unique and that one size does not fit all.
Where helpful and appropriate I may also use interactive theories and creative techniques to support the therapeutic process in our sessions.

Together we can explore where you are at, at a pace that feels safe, comfortable and right for you.

I have a Level 4 diploma in Therapeutic counselling, awarded by the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding body.(CPCAB)
And I am a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapist,(BACP), adhering to their Professional Code of Conduct and Ethical Framework or Good Practice.

Counselling can be a daunting thought, bringing about a mixed bag of emotions, you are not on your own if this is you, it's ok..

The first point of contact is a free 15 minute telephone call.
This is an opportunity to get a little understanding how I work, what you are looking for, availabilities and from here if it feels ok, we can arrange our first meeting.

At our first meeting we can start to look at what has brought you to therapy and how we might work together going forward and  answering any queries or questions you might have.

If we arrange further sessions we will look at an agreement between us, providing a safe and confidential space to work in.

Each session is 50 minutes at a charge of £60.00, including the first meeting.
