About Helen

Helen Wilkinson helps people address stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and motivation using a straightforward, client-focused approach. She is registered with NCPS and has nine years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

She works by listening to what matters most to the individual and then agreeing practical next steps. Sessions focus on clear goals such as managing anxious thoughts, improving communication, rebuilding confidence, or finding direction at work. Helen explains ideas simply and checks in about progress as therapy continues.

Her background includes regular work with people facing depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and coping with life changes. She also supports clients with ADHD-related challenges, compassion fatigue and chronic pain or illness. Helen draws on a mix of approaches to match the issue being worked on.

In practice she uses Client-Centred techniques to follow the person’s lead, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to address thinking and behaviour patterns, and solution-focused steps to build immediate practical changes. Motivational Interviewing helps when change feels difficult, and elements of Imago work inform conversations about relationships.

Sessions are conversational and aim to be practical. Helen encourages people to try small experiments between meetings and to review what helps. She accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and arrange a first meeting.

How Helen uses different approaches online

Helen commonly blends Client-Centred work with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and solution-focused steps. Client-Centred therapy means the counsellor follows the person’s concerns and reflects what matters most. This helps when someone needs to talk things through and be heard before making changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thinking and behaviour patterns and offers practical exercises. It is useful for stress, anxiety and low mood where changing routines or thought habits can reduce symptoms. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete steps and immediate goals to move things forward quickly.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Helen will discuss options and agree what to try based on a client’s goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is reviewed.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins alongside work or family commitments.
