Helen Mills Porter

Hi, I'm Helen. I've spent the last 30 years working as a psychotherapist. I've worked with individuals, couples, and families across a wide range of concerns.

I specialise in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Systemic Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I also have some specialist training in working with sex addiction, trauma, and autism. See my full of qualifications and experience below.

Whether you're facing an addiction, anxiety, stress, a long term illness or relationship problems; I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace.

Together, we'll work toward meaningful and lasting positive change in your life.
