Getting to know Helene McMahon

I offer a warm, trauma-informed space for adults navigating CPTSD, anxiety, and burnout. Using EMDR, IFS, and somatic tools, I help you heal at your own pace. With lived and clinical experience, I provide compassionate, flexible care. In-person/telehealth. My approach My approach is warm, attuned, and trauma-informed. I blend EMDR, IFS, somatic, and polyvagal work to support mind and body together. I honor your pace, listen deeply, and create a grounded space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered to heal. My focus I offer a soft, steady space for those carrying trauma, anxiety, and old family wounds. Together we slow down, listen inward, and gently rebuild safety, resilience, and the quiet trust of coming home to yourself. My communication style My communication is attuned and steady, listening for both your words and the quiet spaces between them. I show up authentically, creating warmth and trust. My style is integrative, weaving mind, body, and inner parts so you feel seen, supported, and understood as a whole. My journey to mental healthcare My path to becoming a therapist grew from my own healing and from navigating family experiences with alcohol abuse and mental health. In inpatient care I learned steadiness, and trauma-informed training helped me build an integrative, compassionate practice where others can feel safe to heal. My goals for you I help clients reach their goals by creating a safe, grounded space where we move at their pace, clarify what matters most, and use integrative mind-body approaches to support growth. Together, we build insight, resilience, and steady steps toward meaningful, lasting change. My first session with you A first session with me feels calm, warm, and unhurried. We gently explore what brings you in, what you need to feel safe, and what’s happening in your body and story. I listen closely, honor your pace, and help you begin building a grounded, trusting connection.
