My name is Helen Clarke, I’m a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor providing counselling in person and online.
I provide a safe space for adults to talk, to process difficult feelings & experience resilience in their minds and bodies.
My practice is Accredited by the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). This means my work has been assessed and met the BACP’s higher standard.
I work with individuals and couples. We may work online via Zoom, or face to face in Middleton-on-Sea.
My World View
I value kindness, autonomy, connection, compassion and relationship. I believe that people can be empowered to thrive after life events have adversely impacted them. Above all, I believe that when we feel healthy, resilient and connected, the world becomes a safer place.
A client’s perspective of therapy
“I felt so safe talking to Helen. Her warmth and genuine care shone through. I have taken lots of notes of the ‘nuggets’ that came out of our sessions and will refer back to them in the future if I feel I am going off track.I really can’t thank Helen enough for helping me transition to a much better place. “
Cost
Taking the first step to contact a therapist can feel daunting, so we can take things at a pace that suits you. We may exchange emails or you can contact me by phone. We can arrange to speak (free of charge) for about 20-30 minutes. Initially, we’ll establish if I am the right counsellor for you. If I’m not, I will signpost you to someone that is better suited to help.
