Online support
How Helen uses attachment and emotion-focused work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on feelings in the moment and how they shape relationships. It helps people notice strong emotions, name them and work on new ways to respond within close relationships. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that began in early relationships and how they affect current partnerships and family life. It helps people understand why they react the way they do and build more trusting connections.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Helen listens to your goals, discusses different ways of working and adapts methods to fit what you want to change. She can blend elements of EFT, attachment work and client-centred listening so the plan reflects your needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls let you use visual cues during relationship work, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier for short check-ins, and messaging is useful for brief updates or when you want to reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel while keeping the focus on progress and connection.
