About Helen

Helen Davis is a licensed clinical social worker with four decades of practice. She earned a Master of Social Work from New York University and now practices in Colorado as an LCSW, CSW. Her path into therapy began when she was a client herself, and that experience still shapes how she engages with people today.

She draws on many approaches gathered across her career, including body-based methods, visualization, compassion-focused work, and energy-based tools that some clients request. Helen also offers bereavement support informed by long experience as a hospice social worker. Her work centers on helping people carry on through hard moments and life transitions.

Sessions are calm and relational. Helen aims to create a safe space where people can slow down, name what hurts, and try different ways of coping. She talks plainly about emotions, patterns, and small steps that can change daily life.

Common concerns she addresses include stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, career shifts, addiction, trauma, depression, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include aging and geriatric issues, cancer, hospice and end-of-life matters, and relationship patterns such as codependency and communication problems.

Her approach is collaborative and values the client’s beliefs and interests, including spiritual practices for those who wish to include them. Helen emphasizes courage, compassion, and steady progress rather than quick fixes. She encourages people to recognize strengths they already have and build from there.

Approaches that guide online work and growth

Helen’s practice draws on several approaches that focus on emotions, the body, and inner experience. Somatic work pays attention to bodily sensations and helps people notice how stress or grief shows up physically, which can support new coping responses. Visualization and compassion-based methods use guided imagery and self-directed kindness to reduce harsh self-judgment and to build resilience during difficult transitions.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Helen partners with each person to try methods that match their needs, beliefs, and goals. She adapts techniques over time and invites feedback so the work stays useful and relevant.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week, fewer travel demands, and more flexibility around work or caregiving schedules. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm which formats are available before booking. Many people discover that remote sessions still allow meaningful emotional work and steady progress when approaches are chosen to fit their life and goals.
