Ms Helen Holmes

Psychotherapist

A fully qualified and experienced psychotherapist, working professionally with children, adolescents, families and adults. MSc, MA, MSc, PG Dip, PG Cert, Grad Cert (Family Practitioner), Clinical Supervisor, Accredited Mediator, Accredited ADHD and Autism Assessor.

About Me

As a psychotherapist, I work with children, adolescents, and adults, guiding families through complex challenges. My broad experience, including accredited ADHD and autism assessment, means I can support a wide range of needs. We can explore feelings and find practical ways forward, creating a clear, supportive space. Clients seeking help for diverse family dynamics or neurodevelopmental understanding will find comprehensive support here.

Approach

Therapeutic work here focuses on practical understanding and steady collaboration, helping people and families make sense of difficult patterns. I offer sessions from my London practice and remotely in English, creating an accessible, confidential setting. Sessions move at a pace you set, combining careful assessment, reflective conversation and concrete planning so you can try small changes between meetings. Those seeking clearer understanding of attention or autism-related differences, family dynamics or emotional recovery often find this way of working helpful.
