About Me

Hi, I'm Helen, and I am passionate about working with people who are struggling with difficulties in their life and finding it hard to cope. 

Perhaps a loss has left you feeling distressed, unable to move forwards or there may be feelings of anxiety? Maybe you are finding life hard and wondering what to do about it... my aim is to help you navigate through these difficult times, and to help you reconnect with yourself.   

By exploring what is happening for you, looking at the issue from your point of view and then help you try to make sense of your life and move forwards.

My areas of interest are, but not restricted to, bereavement, grief and loss, having worked in Devon Hospices over a four year period. I also work with anxiety and trauma, and am a counsellor with Torbay Domestic Abuse Service.

Making that first move can be hard.

I can offer you a free initial phone consultation to see if we are a good fit to work together. I also offer sessions on an open ended basis, to an agreed time scale and with the aim to assist you to live your life to the full.
