The Most Important Part of Therapy Is The Experience of My Clients
"Not only are our sessions with Helen beyond valuable they are also refreshingly fun, which from previous experience with therapists hasn’t been the case. Her warm and understanding nature creates a very relaxed and safe space for us to be able share openly and candidly. We always end our conversations with Helen, feeling lighter and more able to deal with any difficulties together."

Helen’s therapy is the most empowering and effective form of ‘help’ I have ever received, and is truly collaborative. Helen's ability to listen actively and respond in a compassionate yet direct manner creates a safe and supportive environment for exploration and growth. She has allowed me and my partner to go from a place of desperation to a grounded and loving relationship, not again as such, but in a new form. She has allowed us to communicate and engage with each other in a way that only she could have done, and we are truly thankful for that. Helen’s insight and depth of knowledge coupled with her engaging and creative practise is above all extremely fun and effective.

"We’d tried three therapists, all unsuccessfully, before seeing Helen. We were at the end of our rope and close to splitting up. Helen worked her magic and found a way to help us and get our marriage back to a warm, loving place after years stuck in anger and sadness. She’s saved our marriage and is a complete godsend. We’ve referred friends to Helen, who’ve had the same experience as us - they said their time working with Helen was life-altering. We think she might be the best couple’s therapist in the UK and feel so unbelievably lucky to have found Helen and to have her on our side. Without Helen’s help, we’d probably be divorced by now. Helen has a brilliant and unusual style - she’s like your funny, no-nonsense mate who just happens to be a world class therapist. She says it straight but is always fair. When one of us messes up, she wryly tells that person to pull up their socks. When one of us is struggling, she provides endless warmth and understanding and makes that person feel heard and seen. Whatever she does, she‘s always scrupulously fair and supports both people - and holds them both to account - equally. Working with Helen is like having a battle-hardened warrior on your side, fighting for your marriage. Think Russell Crowe in Gladiator, helping you and your partner hack away at all the anger, resentment, hurt, misunderstanding that’s accumulated over years of life together with small children."

We came to Helen in a mess, knowing something was wrong but not knowing what it was. One of us wasn’t really a “therapy” person, so was reluctant to go. Helen very quickly established trust with both of us, and took the time to get to know our characters individually. As a result, she was able to help articulate the thoughts we weren’t able to properly verbalise ourselves, which meant we could simply discuss the issues at hand. As time went on, Helen made small, gentle suggestions for improvement - as we did these, things just got a little better. After 6 months of these little changes, we suddenly realised we were as happy as we’d ever been.

"These are the things I have found the most valuable in our work together: For me, everything you've done with us so far. Right from the start you've been open, warm, and - crucially - made it perfectly clear you were here for us. You were human. It's never crossed my mind that you weren't in our corner and fighting for us. And for me that's most apparent when you ask the hard questions, when you hold me accountable. All with full support and care. What's a stronger proof of genuine care than to challenge directly and empathetically? For me it shows that you actually give a shit. That you want things to change for the better for us. That it's not just the two of us trying to get to a better place; we've got a coach who believes in and supports us."
