Ms Helen Northcott

Psychotherapist (Registered)

An experienced psychotherapist specializing in family education, substance abuse, alcohol education, Vaping education, communication skills.

About Me

When families face challenges with substance use or communication, it can feel overwhelming. I guide individuals and families through alcohol and vaping education, exploring underlying issues. We work together to develop stronger communication skills, fostering open dialogue. My approach offers a calm space, helping you understand dynamics and build lasting well-being strategies.

Approach

In sessions we focus on practical conversations about patterns in relationships, substance use and day-to-day choices, using clear examples from your life to notice what keeps things stuck or moving. I guide short skills practice and reflection during meetings and often suggest small, doable experiments between sessions so you can try different ways of speaking, coping with urges or handling difficult feelings. Change usually shows up as steadier communication and shifts in habits over weeks, which many families and individuals find manageable and realistic.
