About Miss

Miss Helen Fox draws on a decade of practice supporting people who have lived through trauma and its effects. She writes plainly and listens closely, offering a warm and curious approach that helps people untangle repeating patterns. Helen is a BACP counsellor and she meets people with compassion and humour.

Her focus often includes stress, anxiety and depression alongside relationship and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people coping with grief, parenting strains, anger and major life changes. People bring complex histories such as narcissistic abuse, co-dependency patterns or domestic violence and Helen helps them look at how past experiences shape present behaviour.

She uses careful questioning to help people identify the thoughts and reactions that keep them stuck. Sessions include practical conversations about how to manage urges to self-sabotage, how to communicate needs more clearly and how to reduce overwhelming shame or guilt. Helen aims to help people develop steps they can try between sessions.

Her background includes years working in services that supported people with learning disabilities and diverse life experiences. That work informs a grounded style that values clarity and respect. Helen says she will meet people where they are and share the journey without judgement.

If you want straightforward support to unpack difficult patterns and begin trying different ways of responding, Helen offers an approachable space to do that. To start, follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Evidence-based techniques often used for trauma and relationship difficulties include trauma-focused work and approaches that look at patterns of attachment. Trauma-focused work helps people name what happened and reduce the intensity of painful memories so daily life is easier to manage. Attachment-focused approaches look at how early relationships shape current behaviour and help people try new ways of relating and setting boundaries.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist will talk about options, listen to your goals and try methods that suit your needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process where adjustments can be made as you go.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are not stated here. Many people appreciate online work because it can fit into a busy week, cut out travel time and make it easier to attend regular sessions. Online conversations can also make it simpler to have a short check-in during a break or choose a session style that feels less intense than an in-person visit.
