About Helen
Helen Perez-Boyd is a licensed clinical social worker who brings nine years of practice experience to her work with people facing relationship, mood, and life-change challenges. She offers a calm, approachable presence and focuses on helping individuals sort through what feels overwhelming in daily life. Her sessions are warm and non-judgmental.
She aims to be a facilitator in the process, helping clients name goals and make small, steady changes. Conversations are practical and aimed at building clearer communication, better coping skills, and healthier patterns.
Background and approach
Helen has worked across several settings, including employee assistance programs and outpatient substance use services. That background means she is comfortable addressing work-related stress, addictive behaviors, and the emotional fallout from trauma or grief. She also concentrates on relationship and intimacy-related issues, family problems, and body image concerns.
Common topics she addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strains, eating and food-related issues, and challenges around commitment or trust. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, impulsivity, personality concerns, and midlife transitions. In sessions she draws on client-centered methods alongside motivational interviewing and solution-focused work.
That mix keeps the focus on what matters most to each person and on steps that can be tried between meetings. Her practice is based in New York and sessions are conducted in English.

How Helen's Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy puts the person's experience at the center of the work and focuses on listening, empathy, and what matters most to the individual; it helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to clarify personal goals.Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change by exploring ambivalence and building motivation; this approach can be useful for substance-related concerns, behavior change, and commitment issues.
Solution-focused therapy looks for small, practical steps and past successes to build on right away; it is often helpful for managing stress, improving communication, and resolving specific relationship problems.
Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the early work. Helen will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences so sessions feel useful and doable.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, chat and messaging are convenient for brief check-ins or when written reflection helps, and all formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
