About Helen
Helen Fox is a BACP counsellor with four years' experience working with adults in the United Kingdom. She sees people dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and the pressures of life changes. Her work also covers issues such as stress, self-esteem, addictions, grief, ADHD and career concerns.
Helen uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on what the client brings to sessions. She pays attention to attachment patterns and uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas alongside mindfulness techniques. This mix helps people notice difficult thoughts, identify what matters to them, and try small, practical steps forward.
In sessions she spends time listening and checking practical needs. Conversations include looking at relationships, communication and boundaries. She also supports people with intimacy-related concerns, body image, eating and sleeping difficulties, and problems linked to caregiving or chronic health issues.
Helen has worked with people from diverse backgrounds, including LGBT clients and those exploring kink or alternative sex culture. She has experience supporting people coping with grief, abandonment and blended family challenges. Her caseload has often included people living in the South East of England, though she accepts international clients as well.
Sessions are offered during weekday hours, and Helen aims to respond to messages within one working day. She is usually unavailable on UK public holidays. To start, users follow the site booking flow to match and arrange a first session.
How Helen uses ACT, attachment work and mindfulness online
Helen draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and decide what matters to them. ACT uses practical exercises and simple values-based goals to guide small steps forward. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences affect trust and communication; it can help with relationship problems and intimacy-related concerns.Mindfulness Therapy teaches straightforward attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These approaches are used collaboratively - the therapist and client decide together which methods suit the person's goals and preferences. Finding the right mix is part of the work rather than a fixed promise at the first session.
The original biography does not list explicit session formats, so confirm the exact online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into study or work days, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For some people it also allows quieter surroundings or avoiding being on camera when that helps them engage. Registered or accredited professionals are available through the platform to arrange sessions and plan next steps with you.
