Helena Mackenzie

Psychodynamic Counsellor
I am a Psychodynamic Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and a registered member of the BACP.
My background
I have been in the field of counselling since 2017 and in this time have worked with clients of varying ages (18- 70yrs) presenting with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, PTSD, gender dysphoria, eating disorders and other mental health concerns. Alongside my role as a counsellor, I work as a Personal Assistant to vulnerable adults.
Psychodynamic Counselling is my core training but I also draw on some DBT techniques when I feel it’s appropriate and suited to the client. I have a particular interest in how unconscious processes affect and drive behaviour as well as how the past influences the present. I seek to help clients who present concerns around their emotional wellbeing and encourage self-exploration to enable them to gain a better understanding of themselves in a safe, friendly and confidential space.
