Helen | Counsellor

Helen has been nothing but; professional, encouraging, supportive, understanding, open, calm, honest, adaptable and kind.

1 year of support from Helen has empowered me to be a better, stronger, calmer version of myself.

I have managed to shut those voices up in my mind and stop worrying about things.

Helen taught me
"the present is the only reality"
in moments of "what if"

A true gem to have found Helen at a time of darkness.

Thank you.

Counselling with Helen helped me tremendously, without it I would not have been able to drag myself up from the depths of my depression.

I started to see Helen when I was at a very low point and also suffering with anxiety and panic attacks. I had found myself in a job that was impossible to do in the hours given and could not balance it with my role as a single mum. There was no support at work which culminated in me resigning. In addition to this I was dealing with bereavement of two very special people in my life.

At the time I was also trying to please everyone and felt responsible for all those around me. My inner dialogue was very negative and especially cruel to myself. I could not really afford to see a counselor but was offered reduced rates. It has been the greatest investment I’ve ever made. I felt instantly at ease with Helen. Her kind and gentle approach enabled me to open up and explore many issues past and present.

I honestly feel a lot younger, happier and more relaxed. I am working again and enjoying it. I feel that I can cope with whatever life throws at me now and value what I have. I’ve not had a panic attack for at least 6 months. I think the biggest change has been in how I see myself. I actually like myself, appreciate who I am and look after myself. There are times when the negative dialogue raises her voice, where I put myself down or feel guilty, but I am now better equipped to recognize and deal with this.

So thank you Helen and I strongly recommend anyone to seek your support.
