Helen Whelehan

Cultivate your happiness today……. I believe that we all have the potential to address, learn from and heal challenging experiences or crises. I aim to provide a supportive and trusting therapeutic relationship and environment, to help you on your pathway to a better well-being.
o I am a Qualified Practitioner with over 20 years’ experience of running my own Therapeutic Counselling practice.
o I receive Regular Supervision, this helps in many ways, not least to gain further insight into problems raised.
o I am an Accredited member of NCPS, The Counselling Society. My work follows the ethical guidelines, and all my sessions are confidential.
My Therapeutic Method….
o Is to establish a safe, non-judgmental space allowing you to talk freely about issues.
o To offer guidance…not to tell you what to do, but to guide you into finding your own way towards the solutions. To find patterns, find reason for making decisions. We can learn to see the obscure, what is good and positive, if we believe in ourselves.
o To plan for your future and work together on a timeline of your life. Look to your past and what has influenced your life today, explore your present, where we can focus on making changes that will lead you towards your ideal life, one that is in your control.
Session information…
o Each session lasts 50 minutes. I welcome in person, online or phone consultations.

Clients say….
“I was struggling to cope with the news of my husband’s terminal illness and continued seeing Helen during and beyond his death. She is an exceptional counsellor. Warm and intuitive, intelligent and experienced., There is a deep attentiveness in the way that she listens, and her observations or questions always bring new, insightful perspectives. I feel so fortunate to have found her and would recommend her to anybody.” ……A

“I have been able to search for answers to my issues in a safe, relaxed and confidential environment. Helen has the ability to listen and then raise a question that looks at the full aspect of any particular problem. I have found my sessions have given me a new perspective on life and this is without doubt down to Helen’s skills and patience. “…S

“I was initially nervous about speaking to a counsellor but found Helen through a recommendation from a friend. Helen has such a lovely, warm, and welcoming manner and made me feel comfortable from the first moment we spoke. She has helped me to explore and understand issues with my family, and together we have developed techniques which I can use to help manage those issues going forward. I can’t recommend he enough and I think everyone needs a Helen in their lives!”….J
