Helen Greaves

Helen Greaves provides a safe and empathetic space where her clients feel acknowledged and listened to. Her starting point is the present, what is happening in her client’s life now. She seeks to work together with her client to understand their issues from their point of view. She brings her understanding to their awareness within the safety of a non-judgmental and supportive relationship. She understands that counselling can feel daunting, but she is a passionate believer in the power of human beings to help one another. Her training is in Gestalt therapy and with that comes a spirit of equality and openness within the confines of a confidential and boundaries space.

Helen comes from a creative background having worked in television and film. Her career has brought her into contact with a vast range of people and situations which led to her interest in training as a counsellor.  She took her innate curiosity and empathy into her training along with her highly developed ability to find creative solutions in demanding situations. She works to help client’s find ways of managing stress, anxiety and relationships problems.

Helen is a humanistic counsellor and a member of the BACP. She is currently in her final year of her training as a gestalt counsellor, having already completed a diploma in counselling skills. She works with NHS patients at The Awareness Centre at Wandsworth.
