I'm Helen Billows, a registered psychologist in Adelaide with a special interest in trauma, PTSD, complex trauma, and EMDR.
I use EMDR as my primary treatment approach because the evidence for it is strong and the outcomes, when it's done well, go beyond symptom management. I'm one of a small number of psychologists in South Australia to hold EMDRAA consultant accreditation - this means I am not only accredited in the use of EMDR, but I help train therapists in it too.

I also work with clients who have clinical diagnoses such as PTSD, BPD, Complex PTSD and Dissociative Disorders.
People often come to therapy feeling stuck and overwhelmed, repeating patterns in their lives that they do not fully understand, or during periods of difficulty, change or uncertainty. Psychotherapy can offer a safe and caring space to reflect and explore emotions, build a freer and more authentic sense of self, and improve relationships.

Sometimes life doesn't always go as planned. Even when you are doing your best in a difficult situation you can feel overwhelmed, exhausted, tired and fed up from your battle. Maybe you or a loved one has a diagnosis of a mental health condition and you don't know how to help yourself or your loved ones. I may be able to help you overcome your obstacles and problems with evidence based therapies that are tailored to your particular problems and circumstances. Sometimes just talking to someone about your problems and feelings is all you need. I can help with that too.

I frequently work with adults and mainly in the field of childhood trauma or services relating to interpersonal difficulties with others.
People seeking psychological services know that it is a deeply personal experience to connect with another human being trying to improve their life experience. I have always believed in personal service, the one-on-one conversation where the person feels heard and validated, instead of big business where clients feel like a number. I aim to be respectful and connected and ensure a high standard of care for all my clients.
