Profile

Accredited counsellor North West London offering individual & couple counselling for relationship issues and life changes

                       
Are you struggling to make your relationship work?             

Have you been thrown into confusion by a crisis or change in your life?      

Are you looking for some calm and relief from your difficulties?


Does one of the following describe you?:

  • You and your partner argue about the smallest things, you can't seem to communicate any more
  • Your relationship has ended and you're finding it difficult to cope with  everyday life.
  • You've lost your job, had a health scare or family crisis and you just can't see your way through.
  • You're worried that old relationship patterns will be repeated with your new partner
  • You're in a new relationship and are wondering it's the right one for you. 
  • Your children are older, your relationship has changed and you don't know who you are or what you want out of life any more 


Through couples counselling or individual counselling, it is possible for you to find some calm and relief from feelings of unhappiness or distress, even if they feel overwhelming.

      "Counselling was crucial in helping me through a difficult time. Helene's
       rare ability to crystallise what I felt, along with a deep and genuine
       compassion, created a totally accepting space in which I felt heard
       and supported in each session."  RC, London


I Work With People Who Want To: 

  • Feel better in their relationships 
  • Find relief from painful patterns and behaviours  
  • Show feelings and emotions without hurting themselves or their loved ones
  • Understand more about themselves and their relationships
  • Feel clearer and calmer about the new direction in their life

     . . . and sometimes to

  •  Find a way of ending a relationship with the least possible distress


Through counselling, you can: recognise the strength you have that has got you this far; discover new ways of dealing with difficulties; learn more about yourself and what you want out of life; reflect on the choices available to you.

Training, Qualifications & Experience

I was born in London and have lived here all my life and have more than 20 years experience of working with adults and children.  I hold qualifications as a counsellor, person-centred couples counsellor, counselling supervisor and group facilitator. As a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy(BACP) and the National Counselling Society(NCS), I work in accordance with their guidelines for ethics and good practice. I am accredited by the National Counselling Society.

I believe in our capacity for self-directed growth and in our potential to discover and release unrealised and unexpected potential, when given the opportunity.  In humanistic counselling, this opportunity is supported by a counsellor who commits to accepting you as you truly are, with a warmth and attentiveness that can help create clarity and understanding, and allow new perspectives to emerge.
