About Helen
Helen Marshall offers support for people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, LGBT concerns, and low self-esteem. She explains things plainly and focuses on practical steps. She aims to make early sessions feel manageable so people can decide what help they want.
Helen works in a respectful, compassionate way. She listens without judgement and adapts sessions to what each person needs. Conversations are personalised and centred on the client's priorities rather than a fixed script.
Background and approach
Her methods draw on several approaches, including attachment-based work, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques, hypnotherapy, and psychodynamic ideas. These tools are used to build emotional awareness, change unhelpful thinking patterns, and address past experiences that still affect daily life. With three years of professional experience, Helen brings focused practical help alongside reflective discussion.
She aims to support people who want clearer thinking about their choices, relief from shame or guilt, and better ways to cope with stress and isolation. Sessions are set up around what the client wants to achieve. Helen emphasises collaboration and gradual progress so people can feel safer trying new ways of dealing with problems.
If you are ready to explore changes, she provides steady support through the process.

How Helen works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Helen will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and decide together which methods to use. That means therapy is a collaborative process where adjustments are made as progress and needs change.
The original biography does not list specific online or in-person formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can help fit support into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it easier to attend from a quieter space, avoid being on camera if preferred, or schedule sessions that suit work and family routines. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these benefits to match practical needs and goals.
