About Helen

Helen Fox is a BACP counsellor who works with adults to address stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She uses a person-centred stance that helps people feel heard and understood. Helen also supports people facing relationship strain, grief, self-esteem struggles and difficulties with addiction or sleep.

Helen draws on practical, evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas and mindfulness. She offers straightforward sessions that focus on what matters to the person - values, coping skills and clearer communication.

Background and approach

Conversations aim to surface workable strategies rather than jargon. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns. These include parenting stresses, career decisions, anger, intimacy-related issues, ADHD and compassion fatigue.

She also works with people dealing with chronic illness, body-image worries and complex life changes. Helen has four years' experience working in and around the South East of England. Her background includes supporting adults and young people through bereavement, trauma and difficult transitions.

She uses that experience to tailor sessions to each person's needs. Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat and text messaging, and Helen accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. Booking follows a simple matching process and sessions run during regular weekday hours.

Ways of working Helen names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Helen's methods work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with what they value. Online ACT sessions often focus on simple exercises and steps to commit to chosen actions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand and change how they connect with others. Sessions can include exploring past experiences and trying new ways of relating in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Helen will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will choose or blend methods that fit. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to specific needs rather than sticking to one fixed method.

Online formats make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation from different locations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, brief reflections or people who find writing easier than speaking. These options help people fit therapy around work, family or mobility needs while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional support.
