Who are HT Counselling Services?
HT Counselling was founded by Helen Townsend in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, over a decade ago. After many years in private practice Helen expanded to HT Counselling Service in 2017 to build a wider range of services incorporating other professionals, experienced and new, alongside innovative services such as online and creative therapy. In 2021 the practice was further expanded, incorporating an Affordable Counselling Service (ACS) which sees online services now covering nationwide areas such as Edinburgh and London. ACS also supports NHS Healthy Minds as a Recognised Counselling Service (RCS).
