Hi, I'm Helena!
My work as an Emotional Stress & Trauma Therapist is rooted in my one that started with my battle with long term anxiety, panic attacks, agoraphobia and depression.
Although I was the agony aunt from 5 years old at school, the people pleaser, the one who wanted to help everyone, I didn’t just wake up one day and realise I wanted to help others for a living. I lived through traumas myself and have experienced the dark night of the soul several times throughout my life and so I feel qualified to work, on a human level, with the majority of souls who come into my world.
After nearly giving up on life aged 15 after the cumulation of some very dark experiences, I decided, that actually, I wanted answers. There had to be so much more out there in this mysterious world to activate our own innate healing abilities. This search to heal my own multitude of issues transformed into gradually learning so much about the human ability to heal ourselves under the right circumstances, and now I want to share what has taken me a lifetime to acquire.
I'm passionate about creating a safe and loving space, guiding those who feel lost re-connect with their anchor and their lighthouse so they can navigate safely through the heaviness of the past. A past which affects the future through mind-projected illusions we play on auto-pilot in our heads and which obscures our reality with negativity.
I know first-hand how utterly draining it can be living with trauma but with my clinical training and personal experience, I’m here to help those who work with me untangle the knots in the subconscious mind and change how theya re perceived, for good. To be light and free and connected again.

I starting my training at Body Harmonics, in Tui Na (Oriental medical massage) where I learned about the wonder of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) and the fascinating and mysterious connection between our emotions and physical bodies.
This greatly opened my eyes to the deeper link between how we think, feel, behave and how our bodies respond.
Fascinated, I went on to study at the College of Acupuncture and Healing to study TCM and Five Elements learning in depth about how the emotions express themselves through categories of people via the Five Elements.
Along the way, I took life changing seminars under the late, great, Master Acupuncturist, Dr. Tan, who further deepened my understanding of Classical body healing systems.
That passion led me on to gain a BSc (Hons) in Acupuncture from the prestigious College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (CICM), where I focused on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Classical Five Elements Acupuncture in clinic, with very many case studies and the theory behind this vast medicine.
For nearly a decade, I ran a successful acupuncture clinic in Oxfordshire, where I saw first-hand how people's minds and bodies are inextricably linked. I learned so much working directly with people and looking at them and their lifestyles in depth.
During the lockdown, I was struggling with how I could help people without even physically touching them. I expanded my practice into hypnotherapy, earning certifications in Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) and Rapid Transformational Coaching (RTC). This new chapter as a Clinical Hypnotherapist allowed me to help clients online using Tele-Health, heal from deep emotional wounds in such profound and life changing ways.
Since then, I’ve added even more tools to my practice, like Advanced Conversational Hypnotherapy and Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT). I’ve built a tailored approach to treatment that meets each person exactly where they are, addressing their unique and specific needs.
As a member of the global movement CATCH (Crisis and Trauma Clinical Hypnotherapy), I'm informed to work with clients dealing with PTSD and Complex PTSD (CPTSD).
Getting to hold space for people to break free from the pain of their past is one of the most rewarding parts of my work, and I’m honoured to be part of their healing journey.
As a member of the General Hypnotherapy Register, I’m committed to providing the highest standards of care for those I work with.
