MBACP Counsellor.

working with adults 18+ 

My name is Helen, and I am a qualified Gestalt counsellor based in Portsmouth. I invite you to explore my page and get in touch. I offer a safe and supportive environment tailored to encourage your personal growth and emotional well-being. If you are seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I offer a compassionate approach that considers your unique experiences and needs.

 


Areas of counselling support I offer.

Neurodiversity (ADHD, autism, AuDHD, dyslexia)

When you are navigating a neurotypical world, it can lead to sensory overload, burnout, and emotional fatigue. I offer neuro-affirming counselling designed to help you discover your authentic self, manage executive dysfunction, and build coping strategies tailored to you.

Anxiety, stress, and depression

Do you feel that persistent worry, overwhelming stress, and low mood can make everyday life feel exhausting? Together, we work therapeutically through your feelings at your own pace, helping you regain balance, rebuild self-esteem, and rediscover who you want to be.

Trauma and relationship challenges

Sometimes, painful past experiences and relational fractures can significantly affect how we interact with others and view ourselves. Working together, we can gently unpack these emotional patterns to foster healthier boundaries and stronger connections.

Self-harm and suicidal ideation

When emotional pain becomes intense, thoughts of self-harm or suicidal ideation can feel overwhelming. I provide a calm, non-judgemental environment where you can safely speak about distress, explore triggers, and find supportive ways forward.
