A little Bit about me

Hi I'm Helen.

Becoming a counsellor felt like a natural role I was meant to fulfill. I went through many different job roles until I felt the right one for me.

Being Late Diagnosed ADHD and dyslexic shaped how I understand the struggles and hardship that it entails, Burnout ,Isolation and not feeling like you fit in. Seeking a diagnosis can be difficult, but counselling with me can be a place of compassion where your thoughts can be heard and really understood, and over time the mask can be dropped.

I run a monthly free support group in my Portsmouth community to help woman who identify as ADHD to connect with each other. I am looking to start start a men's support group and mixed group in the future.

I work face to face on line or by phone which ever helps to support you better.

You’re totally welcome here just as you are.

 

 

What to expect during counselling with me

We’ll go at your speed and look into whatever feels important in the moment for you with no strict agenda.

I’m not here to fix you or tell you how to live your life. but to support you in building awareness, making choices, and trusting yourself, all with compassion and curiosity. My goal is to create a friendly space where you really feel heard, respected, and understood.

Since everyone’s unique, I customise my approach to fit your specific experiences, needs, and goals. Think of me as your steady support while you figure out your own path forward.
