About Helen

Helen Greenaway is a counsellor who uses a blend of practical talking therapy and coaching. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by worry, struggle with low self-esteem, or get stuck in unhelpful patterns. Helen presents a calm, direct approach for people wanting clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping.

Helen works with anxiety, stress and depression alongside issues such as sleep problems, anger, and feelings of emptiness. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, career uncertainty, and the strain of parenting.

Background and approach

ADHD-related challenges, including moments of rejection sensitivity, are part of her practice too. Her background combines four years of clinical experience and a registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. That combination informs her blend of therapeutic styles and conversational coaching skills.

In sessions she draws on client-centred ways of working to follow what matters most to the person, cognitive behavioural techniques to address thinking and behaviour patterns, and psychodynamic ideas to consider longer-term themes. Solution-focused methods are used when clients want short-term, goal-oriented work. Helen offers appointments by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How Helen’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of each session. The counsellor listens closely and follows what matters most, helping you make sense of feelings and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours to reduce anxiety or improve sleep and mood. Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns that repeat across relationships and life choices, which can help people understand why they react certain ways.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Helen will talk with you about your goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit your situation. Together you can try a practical CBT strategy, a client-centred conversation, or draw out longer-term themes, and then adjust the plan as you learn what helps.

Online therapy makes these approaches flexible and accessible. Video calls let you have focused conversations with visual cues. Phone sessions are useful for people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are handy for short check-ins, coaching-style prompts or when a brief note between sessions helps keep momentum. These formats help people fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
