Helen Williams

I am a qualified clinical supervisor and offer supervision to counsellors in private practice and organisations. I work predominantly using a person centred approach but integrate from other approaches under the humanistic umbrella. I also use a creative approach to supervision if appropriate to your client work.

I am experienced in counselling adults, couples, family / friendship relationships and also with young people over the age of 12 years.

Face to face in the BS23 area and online sessions available. 

Fees from £50 per hour or £70 per 90 minutes. 

Reduced rates for student counsellors

I am happy to offer a free 30 minute consultation in order to discuss your needs and to check I can meet your needs as a supervisor.

Please contact me for more information.

Limited availability for face to face and online sessions.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, as though sinking or stuck? As a counsellor, I am interested in how our current-day lives have been shaped by formative past experiences and unconscious processes. Within this framework, I take a tailored approach to each client, allowing the needs of the individual to guide my work. I am experienced in providing both short-term and long-term therapy, covering a range of issues with a straightforward style. I have worked extensively with trauma and abuse, depression and anxiety, and relationship issues.

My aim is to help you explore how you can best be yourself and live your life amidst the confusion and challenges of the modern world. In time old wounds begin healing, a sense of clarity emerges and you feel freer to move towards a more satisfying life with a greater sense of hope, peace, confidence and love.

Our work together will help you to become clearer about what matters most to you, uncover a truer sense of who you are and what gives real meaning and satisfaction to your life. Together we can explore the challenges you experience, the choices you make and the recurring patterns you would like to change.

Sometimes if you have experienced something traumatic we can use a different type of therapy call Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help you move on from the trauma, please reach out if you'd like more information on this and how it can help you. 

I am flexible in my working hours and have a limited number of evening slots available, please contact me for further details. 

In some circumstances my fees are negotiable. 

Face to face and online sessions available now.

The first session will begin with completing the therapeutic agreement with you, this includes a section on my confidentiality policy. I will then ask a series of questions in order to get to know a little about you and your needs. The remainder of the session will be spent exploring your initial reasons for seeking therapy and devising a suitable treatment plan.
