About Helen
Helen Greenaway is a BACP counsellor who helps people who feel overwhelmed by worry, low self-worth or unhelpful patterns. She works with clients who struggle with anxiety, sleep problems, relationship and intimacy issues, and the stresses of day-to-day life. Helen also supports people dealing with ADHD-related rejection sensitivity, career doubts and compassion fatigue.
Her approach is grounded in listening first. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking. Helen uses straightforward tools to reduce panic, improve sleep and build confidence.
Background and approach
She aims to make things feel more manageable from week to week. Over four years of practice have shaped a flexible style. Helen draws on client-centred ideas to follow what matters to the person in the room.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Psychodynamic thinking helps uncover repeated life patterns, while solution-focused work keeps sessions goal-oriented. People choose Helen when they want a calm, direct space to talk and try things that might help.
She works remotely with a range of concerns including stress, depression, parenting strain and intimacy-related worries. Sessions can be adapted to practical needs and personal preferences. Clients can expect a collaborative process that balances listening with practical steps.
Helen encourages small, achievable changes and checks progress along the way. Her goal is to help people feel steadier and more able to cope with life’s challenges.
How Helen's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The counsellor reflects feelings and priorities so the person can feel heard and decide what matters most to work on. This suits worries about self-worth, relationship strain and life direction.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It uses practical exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try new coping strategies. CBT can help with anxiety, sleep problems and low mood by offering clear tasks between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Helen will discuss different options and try methods that fit the client's goals and comfort level. The decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online formats make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels important. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter setup is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer written communication. These options offer flexibility so therapy can continue around work, caring duties and daily routines.
