Background and approach

She uses clear, down-to-earth conversation to identify what matters most to a person. Sessions focus on small, achievable changes rather than overwhelming lists of tasks. Her approach draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, mixed with client-centred listening.

These tools help people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify values, and try different ways of responding to stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas also guide conversations about connection and intimacy. Across 11 years of practice, Helene has worked with a broad range of concerns including attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, codependency, and recovery from trauma.

She offers a calm, steady presence while helping people make changes that fit their lives. Helene explains options and helps people choose what to try next. Her sessions aim to be pragmatic and compassionate.

People leave with concrete steps to manage anxious moments, cope with loss, improve communication, or rebuild a sense of direction. Helene encourages small experiments that build confidence over time.

Therapeutic approaches online and how they help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing difficult thoughts and feelings and choosing actions that match what matters to you. It helps people who struggle with anxiety or avoidance to build a life guided by their values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying different behaviours to reduce distress. It is often used for anxiety, sleep problems and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on emotions in close relationships and can help people improve communication and feel more connected.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest options to try. This is a collaborative process - you and the counsellor decide together which methods to use and adjust them as you go.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or text can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, parenting and daily life.
