About Helen

Helen Perez-Boyd is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with nine years in private practice. She works with relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, and related issues such as self-esteem, stress, and grief.

She has experience across employee assistance programs, preventive services, and outpatient substance-abuse settings. That background means she is familiar with workplace stress, brief interventions, and longer-term therapy for adults and adolescents. She has also run online groups addressing survivor issues and Cluster B personality patterns.

In sessions she focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Conversations aim to clarify what is causing strain and to find small changes that reduce it. She uses feedback from clients to shape what happens week to week.

Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the client's perspective. Motivational Interviewing appears when decisions and change feel stalled. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear goals and track progress in short-term work.

Helen works in English and practices from New York. International clients are not currently accepted. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective, giving time to describe problems and priorities in the client's own words. It helps when people need a listener who follows their lead and clarifies what matters most.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method for people who feel stuck about change. It uses guided questions to build motivation and resolve mixed feelings, which can be useful for addictions, behavior change, or commitment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Helen will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences and will adjust the plan based on what is helpful over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or after work. They also let people choose shorter check-ins when that matches what they need. Licensed professionals use these formats to keep continuity of care and to make scheduling more practical for everyday life.
