About Helen
Miss Helen Fox works with trauma and its effects, and she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression and problems in relationships. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and has ten years of practice experience in the mental health and care sectors.
She has long experience supporting people affected by sexual abuse, domestic violence and other traumatic events. She also helps those caught in patterns such as co-dependency, narcissistic abuse and addictive behaviours. The aim is to identify repeating patterns and find practical ways to change them.
Her work includes helping people who struggle with low self-esteem, anger, grief and parenting pressures. She has supported people with learning disabilities in health care settings and works with a range of personal difficulties, including attachment issues, dissociation and personality-related problems.
Sessions focus on clear, curious questioning and developing steps to reduce the sense of being stuck. She offers practical ideas to break cycles of self-sabotage and to manage intense emotional reactions. Helen uses conversational, straightforward language and brings life experience to her role.
She works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. Helen asks people to start by using the site questionnaire and scheduling a first session so she can understand each person’s current needs before planning the next steps.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Helen uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma and related problems. One approach focuses on identifying and changing repeating patterns of behaviour, helping people understand how past experiences affect current reactions and plan practical changes. Another approach works with emotional regulation and symptoms such as anxiety, anger or dissociation, teaching steps to manage strong emotions and reduce the frequency of crisis responses.
Finding the right therapeutic method is part of the work. Helen will discuss different approaches with each person and help decide what fits best based on their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where methods can be adjusted as work progresses.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as they are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare or travel, and it can reduce time spent commuting. It also allows shorter check-ins or phone contact when that suits someone's schedule, and it can be easier to attend when mobility or location would otherwise be a barrier.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
