About Helen
Helen Damisa welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or grief. She introduces a calm, non-judgemental space where people can say what they think and feel. Helen uses straightforward talk and practical tools so clients can take small steps forward.
With six years of professional experience, Helen helps people navigate family conflict and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports those facing issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment difficulties, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and caregiving strain. Helen offers focus for problems like communication difficulties, codependency and chronic illness as part of a broader picture.
Her way of working blends approaches that encourage values-led action, clearer thinking and stronger emotional regulation. Sessions aim to build understanding of patterns, try new behaviours, and practise skills between meetings. Helen works alongside people rather than directing them, and she explains things in plain language.
Sessions are offered in English and she sees people across the United Kingdom, including international clients. Fees vary with location and a subscription model is used, which can be cancelled at any time.

Helen’s approach is steady and practical. She helps people break down problems into manageable steps and stay focused on what matters most to them. That makes therapy easier to fit into a busy life.
How Helen’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed steps towards those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It is useful for worry, low mood and problems that feel stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current responses and aims to build safer ways of connecting and relating in close relationships. It is often used for relationship strain and attachment difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work, using empathic listening and gentle reflection so people feel heard and can find their own answers.Finding the best approach is part of the process. Helen will work with the person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative choice and can change as therapy progresses.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online or in-person options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone choose audio-only or video depending on comfort and bandwidth. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt these approaches for remote sessions to focus on skills, values-based action and relationship patterns in everyday life.
