Hello and welcome,
I'm Helen, a psychotherapist and coach working online and in person in the North of England at the scenic border between Pendle Witch Country and the Yorkshire Dales.
Thinking about life as a journey may sound like a familiar cliché but it’s a metaphor I find personally and professionally meaningful. I often hear clients describe how they experience feeling lost, off course, adrift, not knowing which way to turn, or stuck and unable to move forward. I have come to think about the way I work as wayfinding, I help clients successfully navigate their own unique journey.
Finding our way to living consciously with integrity and purpose liberates us from old, lingering, limiting patterns from our past, and helps us to move forwards towards a better and more fulfilling future.
No matter what our particular survival oriented coping strategies or symptoms, when we pause and take stock, gain insight and clarity, discover our power to choose, and find our own authentic way forward, we begin a journey oriented towards wholeness and thriving.
We know the defining key factor for successful therapy is the quality of the therapeutic relationship. In my integrative multidisciplinary practice I fuse my training, knowledge, and experience together while always holding our relationship at the heart of our work.

Are you ready to find your way, discover healing, realise your power, and consciously choose your future?
I am waiting to help you...
Many of us discover that making sustainable changes is too hard to do on our own and so we look for support.
Your first step...
I work with people to address a variety of issues. I know that the level of distress these difficulties create varies and depends on our unique experiences and circumstances. When we first talk together we will work out how best I can help you. This is part of the process; it’s okay if you are unsure.
Whatever your difficulty…
Our need for help can show up in so many different ways: looking for more meaning and purpose, feeling lost and without direction, anxiety and depression, feeling unable to cope with life events, feeling overwhelmed and suffering with stress, low self-esteem and chronic shame, dysfunctional relationships, the difficulties experienced when we live with challenging patterns of behaviour or personality traits, the hardships of living with ADHD, emotional or compulsive overeating, problems related to alcohol. This isn’t a complete list so your experience may not be mentioned above; if it isn't included here please do still get in touch, I will always welcome your enquiry and an opportunity to explore how I may help.
