About Me
I'm Helen and I am a humanistic counsellor and hypnotherapist based in Horsham, West Sussex with many years experience supporting adults, children and young people. My approach is warm, creative, and person-centred, shaped by both professional training and personal insight.
For as long as I can remember I’ve been drawn to the quieter stories people carry, the one’s that shape how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and how we move through the world.
My work is grounded in compassion, creativity, and a deep belief in the possibility of change, no matter how stuck things might feel.
Over the years, I’ve walked alongside many adults, young people and children as they navigate life’s complexities.
My professional journey began with a degree in psychology and has since grown to include hypnotherapy, training in EFT, animal assisted therapy, therapeutic creativity and humanistic counselling. I have further training, through The Foundation For Infant Loss, in fertiity issues, miscarriage, baby loss, rainbow baby pregnancy, PCOS, endometriosis and menopause. I'm also a member of BICA - British Infertility Counselling Association.
Each step in my training was chosen with care, building a toolkit that’s both gentle and grounded, designed to meet you where you are.
I have 10 years of experience working in therapy, offering tailored support in sessions with warmth and compassion.
I’ve spent over 30 years working with adults, young people, children and families, learning that personal growth often starts with feeling truly seen and heard.
Gentle, Creative, Personalised Support
My approach is a fusion of trauma-informed and gently creative techniques. I draw on a range of therapeutic tools, and techniques to tailor our work to you because there’s no one size fits all when it comes to therapy.
Sometimes words aren’t enough and that’s okay. Alongside counselling and clinical hypnotherapy, I also offer ways of working that invite creativity, imagination, and metaphor into the process. These support transformation and growth in ways that go beyond talking.
Whether we work with words, images, stories or silence, I’m here to hold space for your journey, at your pace.
Inspired by nature’s quiet resilience
I am a specialist in supporting adults navigating fertility issues, pregnancy loss, rainbow baby pregnancy, PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), endometriosis and hormonal health.
I also work with people navigating trauma, anxiety, self-worth, stuck in repeating relationship patterns or with attachment wounds. I support teenagers and young people seeking understanding, validation, support, and coping tools.
I offer tools, tips and supportive posts on my facebook page: Creatively Dreaming Therapy, with Helen Taylor.
When I’m not in the therapy room, you’ll often find me walking in woodland, inspired by nature’s quiet resilience. I bring that same calm, grounded energy into my work by trusting in shifts occurring for you at the time that feels right for you, that lead to meaningful change.
