About Helen

Helen Davis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado with 40 years of experience. She earned her MSW from New York University and began practicing in 1979. Helen works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addiction concerns, and codependency among other life challenges.

She learned to be a therapist after experiencing therapy herself. That personal start shaped how she practices: practical, straightforward, and focused on what helps people feel steadier. Helen also has experience in hospice social work and provides bereavement support for those facing loss.

Over the decades she has added a range of approaches to her toolkit, including somatic methods, visualization, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), inner child work, and Reiki. She also offers compassion-based practices and, when clients express interest, work informed by A Course in Miracles. She describes these as tools to help people access feelings in the body, process painful memories, and shift repetitive patterns.

Her sessions tend to focus on building clearer boundaries, managing intense emotions, and finding more balance amid life transitions. Helen emphasizes steady, practical steps rather than quick fixes. Sessions are conversational and paced to each person’s comfort.

Helen speaks English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a prospective client follows the site’s matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can work

Helen uses a mix of evidence-based and experiential methods. Somatic approaches focus on how stress and trauma show up in the body and use simple body-awareness techniques to help reduce tension and reactivity. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) blends gentle tapping with focusing on feelings to lower distress during strong emotions. Inner child work and visualization invite people to revisit early hurts and offer new ways to respond to old patterns, which can help with codependency and relationship-driven behaviors.

Choosing the right approach happens together. Helen will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try different methods, and adjust what she does based on what helps most. That collaborative process is part of the work rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. It also lets people work with a licensed professional in Colorado from another state or country if that fits their needs. Discuss format and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions match your daily routine.
