About Miss
Miss Helen Fox draws on ten years' experience working with trauma and its after-effects. She is a BACP counsellor who listens without judgement and helps people who feel stuck by long-standing patterns. Her manner is warm, direct and occasionally light-hearted to make difficult conversations easier to begin.
She has spent much of her career supporting people who have experienced sexual violence, domestic abuse and other traumatic events. She also helps people coping with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties. Codependency and experiences of narcissistic abuse are named concerns she frequently sees in her work.
Helen describes her role as a facilitator of change. She aims to help people notice how old patterns from the past are replaying in the present. Sessions involve curious, compassionate questioning and practical problem-solving to reduce that feeling of being trapped or repeating the same outcomes.
Clients talk through how they self-sabotage, how they feel misunderstood, or how grief and major life changes have affected them. She also has experience supporting people with addictions and those who have learning disabilities within healthcare settings.
Her style is steady and relational. She aims to meet people where they are and to work at a pace they can manage. The focus is on understanding what keeps difficulties going and finding realistic ways to try things differently.
Approach and online support for trauma and relationships
Helen uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on trauma recovery and interpersonal patterns. One common strand she emphasises is trauma-informed work, which looks at how past harm changes responses in the present and helps people develop safer ways of coping. Another frequent focus is relational thinking about attachment and codependency, which helps people recognise recurring roles and try different ways of connecting.Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options with the person, test what feels most helpful and adapt methods as goals and needs become clearer. That collaborative stance means clients have a say in how sessions progress and what to try next.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins between other commitments. They also let people choose a quieter moment at home or during a break, and can be useful when video is difficult by offering other ways to connect. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, can use remote work to keep continuity of care when face-to-face meetings are harder to arrange.
