I'm Helen & I'm an Accredited Integrative Psychotherapist & Counsellor. I know that it takes a huge amount of courage to seek out counselling. I recognise that & will provide an authentic, non judgemental approach to exploring whatever it is you might bring to therapy.

I believe a therapeutic relationship & trust are of key importance in therapy work & have a down to earth, but highly compassionate approach, often taking a trauma informed approach to counselling.

I have a deep trust in the healing potential of a therapeutic relationship. At the heart of my work is the belief that meaningful change can happen when you feel safely held, understood, and able to explore your experiences without judgement.
Reaching out for therapy can feel exposing and uncertain, and I aim to offer a space that is steady, respectful, and collaborative from the beginning. I work in a trauma-informed and client-led way, recognising how past experiences and relationships shape how we think, feel, and respond in the present. Together, we take time to understand these patterns with care and compassion.

My practice is built for adults who feel a deep friction between how they function on the outside and how they feel within. I specialise in working with the chaotic executive dysfunction and burnout of adult ADHD; the exhausting, high-control cycles of eating disorders and body distress; and the unique identity pressures faced by athletes and high performers. Alongside these specialisms, I regularly work with clients navigating everyday challenges - like chronic anxiety, relationship changes, or work stress. If you value a down-to-earth space without clinical stuffiness, you are in the right place.

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Counsellors
How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.
When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behaviour through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.
What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviours and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.
Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioural habits.
