About me

Hello, I'm Helen


I am an integrative counsellor working in the countryside just south of Bristol. I work with adults providing online and in-person counselling. I believe that therapeutic work happens with human connection in the counselling space that we create together. I'm really looking forward to meeting you.


My counselling practice has supported a wide range of issues including anxiety, low mood, complex life transitions; as well as addressing the impact of childhood experiences such as intergenerational trauma, emotional abuse and surviving domestic abuse.

I came into counselling having worked in both the business and charity sector. I was also a foster carer for many years for Bristol City Council.

Professionally, I hold an Advanced Diploma in Counselling accredited by the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).

I have a certificate in Online and Telephone Counselling from Counselling Tutor. I have completed the Carolyn Spring ‘Working with Shame’ trauma training module.

My client work includes working within a Primary Care GP practice in Somerset and my private counselling practice. I undertake regular clinical supervision. I hold full liability insurance and am a registered member of NCPS working within their ethical framework.

What issues can counselling help with?

The work I have supported addresses a wide range of issues and experiences including:

Anxiety

Stress

Trauma

Low self-esteem

Shame

Depression

Relationship difficulties

The effects of abuse and loss

My location
