Dr Helen Crispus Jones, Clinical Psychologist
Psychologist, HCPC - Clin. Psych.
Newbury RG14
Hi, I’m Helen. I’m a Clinical Psychologist. I currently specialise in working with parents and parents-to-be. The challenges of modern parenting are wide ranging. Many parents experience low mood, isolation, overwhelm or stress. We are led to believe that becoming a parent is a natural and joyful experience. But parenthood often brings a host of other experiences, such as rage, guilt, or grief. Mental health difficulties including depression, anxiety, OCD and PTSD are also relatively common, yet it can feel like you’re the only one.

Waitlist for new clients
I work with adults who often appear to be managing well on the outside, but internally feel stuck, anxious, or emotionally overwhelmed in ways that do not shift easily. Many people come to me when they notice long-standing patterns such as anxiety, overthinking, emotional disconnection, difficulties in relationships, or burnout despite functioning in daily life. Often there is a sense of understanding themselves intellectually but still not experiencing lasting emotional change. Together we work with these patterns as they emerge, helping to bring clarity and support deeper and more lasting change.
