Psychotherapy in South London and Online

Helen Jack, integrative therapist and counsellor in South London

Welcome

Hello, I’m Helen, an integrative psychotherapist based in South London. I offer counselling and therapy for anxiety, low self-worth and relationship difficulties, working with clients in Beckenham and online across the UK.

Sometimes what you’re going through may not fit neatly into one of these areas. Therapy can offer a space to explore your experience with curiosity, care and understanding.

Alongside this, I am a registered member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and work in accordance with their ethical frameworks.

If you’d like to understand more about what therapy might be like, you can read more about working together here.

You might be seeking therapy if you…

  • feel anxious, overwhelmed, or on edge

  • struggle with low self-worth or self-criticism

  • find relationships difficult, intense, or confusing

  • feel stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand

  • are affected by early loss, trauma, or attachment wounds

You may have a sense that something isn’t quite right, even if it’s hard to put into words. Therapy can offer a space to begin to make sense of this at your own pace.

How I work

In our work together, we would explore how your current difficulties may be shaped by earlier relationships and life experiences.

I work relationally, psychodynamically and somatically. In practice, this means we might pay attention to:

  • patterns in relationships and emotional responses

  • how past experiences shape present difficulties

  • how emotions are experienced in the body

  • what happens in the therapeutic relationship itself

Rather than focusing on quick fixes, therapy offers a space for deeper understanding, emotional processing, and gradual change.

Sessions are paced according to what feels manageable for you, with space for reflection, curiosity and support.
