Helen is driven by a strong desire to help others and make a difference. Her clients trust her with their personal stories, knowing that their voices will be heard with undivided attention. She is calm, gentle, and understanding.

She sees therapy as a great honour and privilege and she is humbled each time a client shares their vulnerabilities with her. She does not take any of it for granted; she deeply values each client’s trust and treat them with the utmost respect. Helen provides a safe and non-judgmental environment for her clients. She works collaboratively with them to create a personalised treatment plan that meets their individual needs and goals.

She aims to help her clients gain strength and freedom from their pain and struggles, as well as find hope, meaning and purpose in their lives.

Helen takes a flexible and integrative approach, using different techniques and interventions to suit the needs and preferences of each client. She draws from a wide range of evidenced-based interventions, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and compassion-focused therapy. She also often uses psychoeducation, supportive counselling, positive psychology, motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy, and logotherapy.

One of her favourite quotes is by Reinhold Niebuhr,

“Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”
