Helen Damon

Hello, I'm Helen. I'm a Counselling Psychologist with over 11 years of clinical experience, trained in several types of therapy at doctoral level. As your therapist, I’ll meet you with warmth, empathy, and the utmost respect to create a safe psychological space for our work together. I’ll offer reflections, questions, interpretations, and constructive challenges to support you in deepening and extending your self-knowledge and making positive changes in your life.

People I work with 

I offer weekly sessions to individual adults (aged 18 and above) experiencing a range of psychological challenges, including anxiety, low mood, family and relationship problems, stress, and more. I specialise in working with people experiencing low self-esteem; questioning “Who am I? What do I value? How can I live my best life?”; and loss, bereavement, or dying. 

Where I work

I offer online sessions via Zoom and in-person sessions in Central London in rooms on Bloomsbury Street (near Tottenham Court Road) and Queen Victoria Street (near Mansion House and Bank). 

How we’ll work together

We’ll collaborate, tailoring how we work together in the service of your therapeutic needs, preferences and goals. These may change over time, so we’ll review our work regularly to decide whether and how to continue. We’ll take an exploratory approach, questioning who you are in yourself and in relation to others and the world, how you came to be who you are, and how you'd like to develop. By working especially with the unexplored, avoided, and unknown we’ll further your understanding and personal growth.

Your next steps

By engaging in therapy, you’re making a significant investment in yourself. As such, it’s important that you take the time you need to find a therapist whose way of working matches your therapeutic needs, preferences, and goals, and with whom you could see yourself building a collaborative and constructive therapeutic relationship. If you think I might be a good therapeutic match for you, please email me with any questions or comments you’d like me to respond to, or to arrange a free Zoom meeting to explore the possibility of starting work together. I look forward to hearing from you.
