Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques are used alongside psychodynamic thinking when helpful. Solution-Focused strategies are included to set clear, manageable goals.

Her approach suits people who want a mix of listening and action. Helen describes coaching-style support for career questions and life changes as well as therapeutic work for depression, grief and compassion fatigue. She keeps sessions calm and paced to the individual.

Approaches people can try in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist offers acceptance and reflection so the person can make sense of their feelings and decide what matters most to them.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Helen will discuss options and collaborate with the person to choose what fits their needs, goals and preferences. That process can include trying different methods and adjusting based on what helps.

Check the session formats before booking to confirm how Helen runs sessions. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who find phone conversations less demanding. Registered or accredited professionals can offer practical support and tools over distance while tailoring pace and focus to each person.
