About Helene
Helene Levin is an ACA counsellor with 11 years' experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties. She focuses on practical support that builds on each person's strengths. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, and she encourages small steps that add up to real change.
Helene listens first and works from what matters to the client. She uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. She also draws on client-centred and emotionally focused ideas to deepen self-understanding and connection.
Common concerns she helps with include grief and loss, sleep difficulties, self-esteem struggles, addictions and coping with major life changes. She also supports people with trauma and abuse histories, intimacy-related worries and issues connected to caregiving or compassion fatigue. Helene pays attention to how attachment and abandonment experiences affect current relationships.
Sessions are practical and conversational. Clients can expect tools to manage difficult thoughts and feelings, strategies to improve sleep and routines, and space to talk through relationship or career decisions. The work blends short-term techniques with conversations about meaning and values.
Helene practises in Australia and conducts therapy in English. She encourages anyone beginning therapy to take the small first step of signing up and completing a brief questionnaire to get matched to a suitable schedule.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and commit to small actions that match those values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems where worry or avoidance gets in the way. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thought and behaviour that maintain distress; it often includes practical exercises to improve sleep, reduce panic and shift unhelpful thinking. Client-Centred Therapy offers a supportive, non-judgemental space where the therapist follows the client's lead to build self-understanding and confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Helene will discuss different methods and collaborate with the client to choose what fits best. That choice is guided by the person's goals, preferences and what they want to focus on, whether that's sleep routines, coping with loss or relationship changes.
Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to attend from a quieter space or to use telephone-only sessions if that suits one's routine. Ask about the available formats when you schedule so sessions match your practical needs.
