Helen Donovan

I am a 麻豆原创 accredited counsellor who works both long and short term with adults. It can be a difficult process to reach out and seek counselling; but if you are able to, it can be a really beneficial space for you to have each week. 

I believe that the relationship between client and therapist is at the heart of the work and I feel if we can work well together then this can help your relationships outside of the room. Therapy at times can be a difficult experience but I am here to support you as you gain strength and insight. 

I am in integrative therapist which means I use a range of styles and tools that are suitable to you. I have extensive experience working with those who have experienced developmental trauma either through sexual, emotional or physical abuse. I can provide a safe and non judgemental environment for you to feel safe enough to explore past experiences.

You maybe experiencing anxiety and you aren't sure why, or low mood and not sure what is going on. I can help you explore and understand yourself better at your own pace. 

I am currently based in Clapham Old Town and Clapham Junction and have sessions available on Monday and Thursday day times as well as online on Mondays and Tuesdays. 

I have availability for face to face supervision on either Monday or Thursday day times in Clapham and online on Monday evenings and Tuesday day times. 

鈥淪upervision is a relationship about a relationship about other relationships鈥� Frawley 鈥� O鈥橠ea and Sarrat

Relationship is at the heart of what I do whether that is client work or supervision. It鈥檚 a space where we can hold in mind the client together whilst also paying attention to our own dynamic and what we co-create and how that is significant for the client material.

I have experience providing organisational supervision both for the charity sector and EAP鈥檚. I currently provide EAP organisational group supervision as well as support for non-allied professionals.

In private practice the supervision I offer aims to meet you at your level of development whether you are newly qualified or have years of experience. If you are a trainee or new to private practice; I am here to support you to foster your strengths as you gain clients, and to harness your growth as you develop your own voice as a therapist and ignite your own internal supervisor. I can also assist in all the practical considerations such as contracts, fee鈥檚 and insurance etc. that you need to attend to.

I aim for supervision to feel a safe space to share openly, nurture curiosity and to receive challenge in a respectful way.

I work integratively so supervision can be flexible in approach and modality.

I draw from psychodynamic theory, person-centred and relational and attachment perspectives. In my own work I use a mix of bottom-up and top-down approaches.

I am a trauma informed therapist so supervision will also have this component if needed.

I also offer private group supervision online for up to 4 clinicians for 1.5 hours. 

My fees are 拢65 for 50 minutes, 拢70 for an hour and 拢100 for 1.5 hours.
