About Helen

Helen Lopez is a bilingual mental health counselor who provides therapy in both English and Spanish. 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 brings clinical training and professional licensure to her practice, which supports her work with a wide range of concerns.

Over the years she has worked with people challenged by persistent negative self-talk, low self-esteem, mood instability, substance use, and anxiety, as well as those processing trauma and navigating identity development. Helen integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy with solution-focused techniques, client-centered principles, and motivational interviewing to create tailored treatment plans. Her approach emphasizes practical skills, emotional awareness, and collaborative goal setting so clients can address unhelpful beliefs and build more adaptive coping strategies.

Helen frames therapy as a partnership that honors each personâs story and strengths while offering structured tools for change. She combines evidence-informed methods with a warm, respectful manner to help individuals move toward clearer thinking, improved emotional regulation, and more fulfilling relationships.

Evidence-Informed Approaches Delivered Online

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, and can be especially helpful for mood instability and intense emotional reactions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns formed in early life to improve connection, trust, and relationship functioning when attachment wounds influence current interactions.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Helen works with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and life circumstances and then recommends approaches that align with those needs. That cooperative planning helps tailor interventions so therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These formats allow licensed professionals and therapists to deliver timely support, teach skills, and maintain continuity of care without requiring in-person visits, making it easier to fit meaningful therapeutic work into everyday life.
