Miss Helen Fox, BACP

Miss Helen Fox is a counsellor with ten years' experience working with trauma and its lasting effects. She helps people who have faced sexual abuse, domestic violence and other traumatic events to make sense of their experience. She also supports people coping with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties.

Her work focuses on understanding the patterns that keep people stuck. She helps clients see how past experiences shape present behaviour, including patterns of co-dependency and responses to narcissistic abuse. Sessions aim to identify repeating cycles and develop practical ways to change them.

Miss Fox has a background supporting people with addiction and has worked in healthcare settings with people who have learning disabilities. She offers a warm, curious style of questioning and tends to combine high support with kindness and a sense of humour. The BACP credential shown indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

In sessions she invites honest conversation about shame, self-sabotage and the inner voice that undermines confidence. She describes her role as a facilitator of change and plans work around each person’s needs. People can expect a non-judgemental approach that aims to make difficult conversations feel manageable.

Miss Fox encourages clients to take small steps toward clearer thinking and better daily routines. She works collaboratively to find solutions for anger, grief, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue, and helps people explore intimacy-related and parenting concerns when they arise.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Miss Fox describes her practice as trauma-focused and aims to help people notice how past harm affects present life. One approach she commonly uses is trauma-informed work, which helps people process upsetting events at their own pace and reduce reactivity to reminders of past harm. Another frequent focus is on patterns and attachment issues, looking at how early relationships shape expectations and behaviour in current relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, life circumstances and what feels most helpful, and then they will try methods that fit the person’s needs. That collaborative process means plans can change as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people meet with a therapist whose experience matches their needs even if they live further away. Ask about the exact ways Miss Fox offers sessions when you start the matching process to be sure they fit your schedule and preferences.
