Amy Helm

Amy Helm is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Massachusetts. She holds an LMHC credential and earned a mental health degree with a specialization in addiction from Cambridge College in 2014. She began work in the field in 2012 and has built a practice informed by experience across treatment settings and a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, mood disorders, and self-esteem difficulties.

Amy integrates client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral strategies and motivational interviewing to address patterns of thought and behavior while maintaining the client’s goals at the center of the work. Her interests also include autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiving stress, obsessional problems, postpartum and seasonal mood concerns, and a broad list of additional focus areas related to parenting, intimacy, and substance use.

She frames therapy as a collaborative effort in which both parties contribute actively toward goals. Amy works with people around coping with life changes, managing anger, addressing addictive behaviors, and navigating relationship or career challenges, offering a blend of practical skills and reflective exploration tailored to each person’s stated priorities.
