About Helen

Helen is a bilingual mental health professional who works with adults facing a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Central Florida and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Argosy University in Sarasota. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), she combines formal training with practical experience to support clients through change and recovery.

She draws on evidence-based methods including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), solution-focused techniques, client-centered therapy, and motivational interviewing. These approaches help address patterns of negative self-talk, low self-esteem, mood instability, substance use, and anxiety, as well as the effects of past trauma and ongoing identity development. Helen emphasizes practical skill-building alongside exploration of beliefs and feelings so clients can develop healthier coping and clearer direction.

Fluent in English and Spanish, Helen offers a warm, collaborative style that aims to meet each person where they are. With a focus on respectful listening and concrete strategies, she assists clients managing relationships, grief, parenting challenges, career concerns, and other life transitions. Her practice seeks to balance compassion with actionable tools so clients can move toward the goals that matter to them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and develop practical strategies to change reactions and behaviors - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and habit change. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on teaching skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness so people can manage strong emotions and improve relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, empathetic stance where the therapist provides support and reflection so clients can explore values, identity, and personal goals at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Helen works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques as therapy progresses.

Online sessions offer flexibility in how care is delivered - clients can meet by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow continuity through transitions, and enable access to licensed professionals and therapists from different locations when appropriate.
