Helen Stephens

I currently have availability. Please contact me for a free initial conversation. If I don't answer straight away please do leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as I am able, or if you'd prefer, send a text.

If you haven’t heard from me within 24 hours by email please check your spam folder as sometimes my messages end up in there.

If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, loss, low self esteem, relationship problems with others, feeling isolated or alone, feeling never ‘good enough’ or battling with addiction this could be due to your attachment pattern. How we view ourself in relation to others and the world around us affects us in everyday life. 

I am a qualified BA (hons) Integrative Counsellor with 8 years of experience both in private practice and for the NHS. 

Being an integrative counsellor means I draw from different theories such as Humanistic, Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic including attachment theory and DBT skills, which enables me to tailor every session specifically for each individual.

Working with attachment helps us to discover why we feel how we do and how to change it going forward.

I offer a client-centred practice with empathy and caring. I recognise the client/therapist relationship is paramount to gaining insight, managing challenges, coping with changes and to dealing with pain. I will be there for you.

I offer a warm, safe, non-judgemental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. Everyone is unique and we all have inner strengths and tools personal to us. It's my aim to help you uncover yours and empower you to use them. Together we can make sense of and change what's happening for you now, but also make a lasting impact on your future.

I was inspired to enter into the world of counselling after realising I was going round and round in my own life and never achieving change. I had my own personal therapy and life finally changed for me. 

Our work can be either long or short term and either done virtually over a secure platform, by telephone or face to face, it's all led by you.

I appreciate how difficult that first call to a counsellor can be, so if you’d prefer, please email or text and we can arrange a free introductory call. It is fundamental that you and I feel we can work together and that you feel comfortable and safe. 

I have 8 years of experience both in private practice and for the NHS. I have worked with people from all walks of life helping them with concerns such as anxiety, addiction, depression, trauma, abuse, relationships, addictions, low mood, stress and bereavement as well as a space to explore any other worries.

I have also worked with young people in a college environment. Helping them overcome issues and barriers, finding direction and growing in confidence.

I have vast experience of working with attachment and the impact of how our childhood can effect the way we relate and form relationships as adults.

I have also supported many men facing struggles with hormone deficiency and Peyronies disease. I understand the extreme impact both of these conditions have on a man's life, identity and mental health. I have also supported men through obtaining treatment for these.

I have worked with many people who are facing the challenges brought on by peri menopause and menopause. Supporting people with the changes and struggles this brings and the different way a person may relate to those around them and also to themselves.

I am an accredited member of the Â鶹ԭ´´ and work within their framework for ethical practice.

I attend regular CPD to keep my practice and my knowledge up to date. I have a real passion for learning about anything counselling related.

Some of the CPD trainings I have attended are:

I currently have availability for online or face to face supervision.

If you don’t hear from me within 24 hours by email please check your spam folder as sometimes my messages end up in there.

Are you looking for a supervisor who empowers and supports you to really understand and develop your client work in an environment that allows honest and transparent conversations?

I help counsellors confidently deepen their skills, develop their own therapeutic identity and think about their client work in different and more insightful ways- so that you leave supervision feeling renewed, confident and supported ready to be the best therapist you can for your clients.

I am a Â鶹ԭ´´ accredited integrative counsellor trained to degree level since 2017 and a qualified level 6 supervisor. I work with both qualified and student counsellors.

I believe supervision should be a place you look forward to coming, a place you feel supported and challenged.

My aim is to provide you with a safe space for exploration, one professional to another. I am warm, empathic and open and supporting you is at the heart of my supervision work. I create an encouraging environment to empower you to think about your work in new and deeper ways, leading you to be able to offer your clients the best therapy you can and making sure you’re safe and well doing it.

I am an accredited member of the Â鶹ԭ´´ with experience in private practice, EAP work and for the NHS. All my work is in line with the Â鶹ԭ´´ ethical framework. I am trained integratively in person centred, psychodynamic, CBT, TA, DBT skills and attachment theory. I have worked with clients with concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, attachment, self-esteem, relationship issues, domestic abuse, sexual abuse, trauma and my work in the NHS was solely centred around addiction.

Our supervision isn’t about just looking at the interventions used and why, using the seven eyed model and IDM, we put you and your clients at the focus of our work. Exploring the relationships between you as the counsellor, your clients and our relationship as your supervisor.

I work with all counsellors at whatever stage of your journey you may be at from student to qualified. I offer a space to explore and support you entering into the world of private practice and I also offer mentoring services for those who are undertaking Â鶹ԭ´´ accreditation.

I offer a free 30 minute telephone consultation to make sure we are the right fit. Supervision is an important part your work and it is vital you feel comfortable in our work together for you gain the best for both you and your clients.

Clinical Supervision Fees

Supervision per hour – £55.00

Supervision per Hour and a half session – £75

Counselling students per hour - £40.00

I look forward to hearing from you.

In our first session, after going through our contract we will start to explore your work with clients and see where you may like support.
