About Helen
Psychotherapist and Counsellor
I have worked as a psychotherapist and counsellor in private practice for over 20 years and am committed to helping people change and develop.
My career has been long and varied, working at senior management and director level in the public, private and voluntary sectors. This includes 10 years as a partner in a psychotherapy training institute.
I provide one-to-one counselling and psychotherapy to adults over the age of 18, offering a confidential space in which to talk about present difficulties and explore unresolved past issues and patterns.
My work with clients is centred on compassion, sensitivity and a commitment to facilitating change.
