Helena Stevens

My communication style

I prioritize being genuine and authentic in my work with clients. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with me as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to validate and affirm what you are experiencing.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a provider was influenced by my upbringing in a household that was affected by trauma and poor mental health. I became passionate about helping others when I was in my undergraduate studies. Therapy was also my opportunity to heal, grow, and find a pathway in life to thrive despite the circumstances of my upbringing.

My goals for you

I believe that therapy is a partnership. Together, we’ll identify and set goals that matter to you, whether they focus on improving relationships, building self-esteem, or another personal objective. Your goals may evolve as you gain new insights. We can adapt our plan at any time to ensure it’s always meaningful and relevant to you.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We’ll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy. Therapy is a process, and we’ll continue to build our work together over time. It’s completely normal to feel nervous about your first appointment. We’ll take it one step at a time, and I’m here to guide you!
