About Helen
Helen Marshall helps people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, LGBT concerns, and low self-esteem. She offers a calm, respectful way of working and aims to make the first steps feel more manageable. Helen is a counsellor with NCPS and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
She listens without judgement and adapts conversations to each person's needs. Sessions move at a pace that feels right for the client and focus on practical steps as well as understanding feelings.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with people affected by adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, caregiver stress, domestic violence, and drug and alcohol addiction. She also supports those dealing with guilt, isolation, social anxiety, narcissism in relationships, and issues around life purpose and self-love. Helen uses a range of approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centred conversation, cognitive behavioural techniques, hypnotherapy, and psychodynamic ideas.
In practice this means exploring past patterns, noticing thoughts that keep problems going, and trying new ways of coping between sessions. Clients can expect a collaborative style that values honesty and kindness. Helen aims to empower people to make changes that suit their life and priorities.
She will work with each person to shape a plan that fits their goals.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the journey and will be decided together. The counsellor will ask about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. That collaborative planning means the methods used will match your needs and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different lifestyles. Video allows face-to-face conversation while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins or times when typing is easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare, or travel while keeping regular contact with a registered counsellor.
