Helen Davis, LCSW, CSW

Helen Davis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has practiced psychotherapy since 1979. She earned a Master of Social Work from New York University and now provides therapy in Colorado. Her long career began after she experienced therapy herself, which shaped her commitment to helping others heal.

She focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes including midlife transitions. She also addresses addiction, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and compassion fatigue. Helen offers bereavement and hospice-related support drawing on years of hospice social work.

Her work combines a variety of approaches tailored to each person. Sessions may include body-centered awareness, guided imagery, and compassion-focused dialogue. Some clients who are interested in spiritual perspectives can bring those themes into sessions.

Helen aims to create a calm, respectful space where people feel understood and able to face painful material. She emphasizes pacing the work so people feel safe while trying new ways of coping and relating. The goal is practical change and greater emotional balance.

With four decades of practice, Helen brings long experience and a steady presence to therapy. She helps people untangle old patterns, reclaim energy, and find clearer direction in life. Her approach supports people through loss, life transitions, and the search for purpose.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Helen integrates several practical methods that help people work through strong feelings and life changes. One approach she often draws on involves body-centered awareness and somatic work, which helps people notice how stress and emotion show up in the body and learn simple ways to regulate nervous system responses. Another common element is guided imagery and visualization, where a therapist leads a person through mental images to process grief, reduce anxiety, or rehearse new responses. She also emphasizes compassion-focused conversation to reduce shame and build gentler self-relating, which can help with depression, self-esteem, and recovery from difficult experiences.

Finding the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the work based on what helps most. Clients and therapist experiment together to find what feels effective and manageable.

The original profile does not specify which online formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make scheduling easier and fit into busy days by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or making sessions possible when relocating or traveling.
