Helen Farrell Counselling

Helen Farrell Counselling I'm a Person-Centred qualified Counsellor who supports Adults & Children. I’m able to provide neurodiversity affirming therapy, un-masking, acceptance. 🤗

I offer a safe space where you can explore feelings, thoughts and experiences with no judgement. There are times in everyone's life when things can feel challenging, distressing or overwhelming. Counselling can offer a valuable space in which to explore behavioural and emotional patterns and gain a deeper understanding of ones feelings and reasoning behind certain behaviours. It offers an opportun

ity to make different choices and can be a space for personal development, exploration and growth. I'm fully qualified with a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling (CPCAB) and a member of the BACP. I have experience in working within schools supporting young people, working with adults who are carers. I also have my own private practice where I can support you with; Anxiety, Relationship difficulties, Childhood trauma, Stress, Feeling suicidal, Berevement, Low self- esteem, Depression, Challenging life events and Childrens Mental Health.

ADHD is sometimes spoken about as though it's "on trend" at the moment.
But what often isn't seen is what sits underneath it...😔. (The stuff we don’t talk about)

ADHD burnout.
The exhaustion that can come from years of masking, overcompensating, trying to keep up and constantly feeling like you should be doing more, perfecting everything.😬
These things can have a very real impact on relationships, work, confidence, parenting and everyday life.

I'm not an ADHD expert or specialist, but I have undertaken a number of
courses and training around
ADHD, neurodiversity and understanding how ADHD can impact people — as well as exploring what can support those living with it.

And perhaps most importantly, I believe in
listening without judgement and helping people understand themselves
rather than feeling they need to "fix" themselves.
You are not broken! You feel more and probs 0 -100! Within a second!
We also would reflect on the unique side of ADHD and how this can be very empowering!
I’m very passionate about my work with my clients and I get support amazing people like you . 🤗

When your therapist encourages clients to switch off, and have more you time🤗.
Therapist on holiday! Oh another book.. go on then! 🤓😃.
My college teacher once said to me as a qualified therapist. “I have the best job in the world”.
She was right. Those words empowered me to study hard and qualify in my Diploma.
I’ve never looked back.
I do have the best job, as I get to meet the most amazing people, all different and on a journey. 🤗

Masking is not always obvious.
In fact, some of the children who are masking the most are often the ones least likely to attract attention.

She looks fine in school.. it’s what we can’t see?”

Because the most important struggles are often the quietest ones…

And the girls who seem the most “put together”
are sometimes the ones working the hardest just to hold it all in.
Girls are often the best at masking.
