Various traumatic life experiences have brought me into this work.  I had a long and rigorous training before I qualified as a Counsellor through the Institute of Psychosynthesis

I am also Accredited with the BACP (British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy) and with the NCPS (National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society).

Much of my work is around facilitating the recovery of my clients, who may have suffered in narcissistic and emotionally abusive relationships. Other issues that clients bring through the door concern work place psychology and bullying, disordered and erratic eating patterns, social and relationship difficulties, the complex feelings that arise at midlife, and the need for bespoke support through transition, change and loss.

My Diplomas are in Psychosynthesis and Psychodynamic Counselling and I also studied Homeopathic Medicine for a time. I am influenced in my work by the practice of Mindfulness, NLP, Emotional Freedom Tapping and Personal Coaching. I am also a life-long advocate for having whatever level of Yoga practice you can manage.

 Contacting me is very simple; you can ring me on 07753 801372 and leave a message, send an email to helen@wayaheadcounselling.co.uk or drop me a text (as above) and ask me to call you back. I will endeavour to get back to you promptly – usually within the same 12/24 hours.  You can also go ahead and book a session on the online appointment section of this site.

Most of all though, I recognise how much courage it can take to ask for help and ring up  a therapist and I assure you that I take what I do seriously and follow stringent ethical guidelines in my practice.
