About Miss
Miss Helen Fox brings a trauma-informed, practical approach to counselling. She focuses on helping people untangle patterns that cause repeated pain. She writes simply and listens closely to what is happening now and in the past.
She has ten years' experience working with people affected by sexual abuse, rape and domestic violence. She also supports people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and relationship problems. Helen has experience with co-dependency, narcissistic abuse, addiction and complex life changes.
Background and approach
Her work often looks at how past events shape present behaviour. She helps people recognise self-sabotage and develop small, manageable changes. Helen uses warm, curious questioning and combines direct feedback with kindness and a sense of humour.
She has also worked in healthcare settings supporting people with learning disabilities. She describes her role as a facilitator of change and aims to help clients find practical ways out of feeling stuck. Sessions aim to identify patterns and build new ways of responding.
Helen is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers a collaborative, non-judgemental space and meets people where they are. If someone wants to explore parenting concerns alongside other life stresses, she can help talk through practical coping strategies and relationship dynamics.

Approaches that suit online parenting and trauma work
Miss Helen Fox uses trauma-informed counselling that helps people make sense of how past harms affect current life. This approach focuses on understanding distressing events, noticing the patterns those events created, and building step-by-step coping strategies for everyday situations. It is helpful for people dealing with sexual abuse, domestic violence, relationship harm and lingering anxiety.She also draws on practical, change-focused ways of working that aim to reduce self-sabotage and improve routine responses. These techniques break problems into small, do-able tasks and support people to try new behaviours in real life. That approach is useful for low mood, anger, stress and parenting-related pressures.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, and then agree a plan together. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs shift.
Online sessions can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation; phone calls can be a shorter check-in when time is tight. Live chat or messaging can suit people who prefer writing or who need flexible, brief contact throughout the week. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and day-to-day life.
