About Helen

Helen Davis is a licensed clinical social worker with four decades of experience in psychotherapy. She earned a Master of Social Work from New York University and now practices in Colorado as an LCSW and CSW. Her interest in this work began from her own experience as a client, which shaped a gentle, empathetic approach to helping others.

She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes. She also addresses addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, compassion fatigue, and issues related to LGBT identity. Helen brings long experience in hospice and bereavement care and helps people facing end-of-life and hospice concerns.

Her work draws on a mix of methods she has used over the years, including somatic approaches, visualization, compassion-based practices, Reiki, Emotional Freedom Technique, and inner child work. She describes therapy as a shared, respectful process where feeling safe in the room matters most. Helen aims to help people undo old defenses that hold them back and make changes that feel meaningful.

Helen often helps people reclaim a sense of purpose and inner calm after loss or upheaval. She also supports those exploring spiritual interests alongside practical coping tools. Her long career gives her familiarity with complex life stages and transitions.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Many of Helen's methods focus on connecting body and mind to support healing. Somatic approaches help people notice and work with physical sensations tied to stress or trauma, which can ease anxiety and overwhelm. Compassion-based practices teach self-kindness and a gentler inner voice, useful for shame, grief, and challenges with self esteem.

Choosing an approach is a team effort. Helen listens to each person's history, goals and preferences and then suggests techniques to try. She adjusts what she uses based on what helps the person make steady progress and feel more empowered.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut down travel time, and offer more flexible scheduling during work breaks or caregiving demands. They also allow continued work with a licensed professional when relocation or international living is a factor. Discussing practical needs during the match process helps ensure therapy fits day-to-day routines and goals.
