About Helen
Helen Rose is a counsellor who helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and low self-esteem. She offers steady, empathetic support and aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable. Helen writes in a warm, encouraging way and acknowledges that starting therapy can take courage.
With nine years of experience, Helen draws on several established approaches to shape sessions around each person's needs. She listens closely and works collaboratively, helping people identify small changes that can make daily life easier.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on practical strategies as well as understanding patterns that maintain distress. Helen uses client-centred work to build trust and pace the process according to what the person brings. She applies cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking.
Dialectical behaviour tools are used when someone needs skills for managing intense emotions and reducing unhelpful coping habits. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Helen helps people break problems into clear steps and practises new skills during and between sessions.
She supports people dealing with mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive concerns, panic, phobias, postpartum depression, self-harm thoughts, and social anxiety. Helen is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works with people across the United Kingdom. She offers therapy in English and is available to international clients through online formats.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thinking and test different behaviours. In online work this often includes short practical exercises, thought records and agreed behavioural experiments to try between sessions.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, DBT, provides clear skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress and improving how you relate to others. These skills can be taught during video calls or reinforced through short messages and chat tools between appointments.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. Helen will discuss your goals, preferences and life situation, then adapt methods so they fit your needs. The emphasis is on collaboration and gradual progress rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online therapy offers flexibility by letting people choose video, phone, chat or text formats. Video calls allow for face-to-face contact and screen-sharing of worksheets, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suit brief check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options help make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping consistent contact with a registered or accredited professional.
