About Helen
Helen Davis is a licensed clinical social worker in Colorado with four decades of psychotherapy practice. She began her MSW at New York University and has been providing therapy since 1979. Her long career grew out of personal experience as a client, which shaped how she listens and connects with people.
Helen focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She also supports those facing addiction, anger, low self-esteem, career shifts, and difficult life changes.
Background and approach
People worried about compassion fatigue, midlife questions, or life purpose often seek her perspective. Her background includes work in hospice and bereavement counseling, which informs her approach to end-of-life and grief-related concerns. Over the years she has drawn on a range of techniques such as somatic approaches, visualization, compassion-based methods, and energy-related practices for those who are interested.
Helen uses what fits each person rather than following a single method. In sessions she aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can speak honestly about what’s hard. She believes healing often begins with feeling understood and steadily learning new ways to cope.
Practical steps, self-compassion, and developing steady routines are common parts of her work. Helen welcomes conversations about life transitions, relationship struggles as they affect individuals, caregiving strain, and the emotional fallout of illness or loss. Her experience makes her comfortable guiding people through both urgent crises and longer-term personal growth.
She works with English-speaking clients in Colorado and internationally.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Helen often draws on compassion-based methods that encourage kinder self-talk and gentler pacing when people feel overwhelmed. These approaches aim to reduce shame and build resilience for issues like grief, depression, and burnout.She also uses somatic-informed techniques that help people notice and work with body sensations tied to stress or past trauma. These practices can be useful for managing anxiety, anger, and physical reactions to upsetting memories.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Helen collaborates with each person to try techniques that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adapts methods over time based on what is helpful and what feels manageable.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy schedules or limited local options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters, phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging make it easier to share brief updates between sessions. These options provide flexibility so therapy can fit into work, caregiving, or travel commitments.
