Background and approach

ADHD-related rejection sensitivity is also a noted area of experience. Sessions are collaborative. Helen listens first, then helps people spot patterns and try new ways of coping.

She uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs rather than a single fixed method. Helen has four years of clinical experience and holds BACP registration, which is listed as a credential. She works with adults who want tools for stress, depression, career strain, parenting pressures and relationship or intimacy-related issues.

Therapy can include short-term goal work or longer conversations about past experiences and emotions. Helen aims to make sessions accessible and practical, focusing on steps that can be put into daily life. She encourages people to test changes between sessions and review what helps.

To begin, clients follow the platform's matching process and schedule sessions by agreement. Helen offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different preferences and routines.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Helen uses client-centred work to prioritise what matters to each person. This approach means the conversation starts with the client's goals and experiences, and the therapist reflects and responds to what comes up. It is helpful when people need space to be heard and to make sense of their feelings.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try practical experiments. CBT can help with persistent worry, sleep problems and patterns that keep anxiety going by teaching simple steps to change thoughts and behaviours.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Helen collaborates with each person to decide which methods to try, drawing on different ideas as needed. She checks in about goals and adapts plans so the work stays relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow fuller face-to-face conversation while phone sessions can be quicker or better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support or people who prefer not to use video. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and daily routines.
