About Helen
Helen Fox is a BACP counsellor who uses a person-centred way of working to support people through hard times. She aims to create a calm space where someone can talk about stress, anxiety, loss or life changes and begin to find practical steps forward. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
With four years' experience, Helen has worked with adults and young people on a wide range of concerns.
Background and approach
These include depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, addictions, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, and coping with career or school challenges. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy-related issues, communication problems, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Helen blends person-centred values with approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Mindfulness.
In practice this means listening carefully, helping clients notice patterns, and supporting small practical steps that fit everyday life. She describes her role as guiding and supporting rather than directing. Appointments generally fall within weekday hours and Helen aims to respond to messages within one working day.
Messages sent at weekends are replied to on the next working day, and she is usually unavailable on UK public holidays. Session fees vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin, people are asked to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to the therapist's availability. Helen explains options and helps people choose what feels most helpful for them.
