I have had two sessions with Helen Coffman and would recommend her to anyone who wants to work with a counselor who takes a faith-based, Biblical approach and is a wonderful listener. Helen's warmth and empathy made it very easy for me to open up to her and talk through some of the emotions and challenges I am currently facing.
More about Helen
- 16 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Texas with 15 years experience helping people dealing with a variety of personal issues. I am a graduate of Abilene Christian University and the University of Texas at Austin. Prior to earning my LCSW license, I worked for 25 years teaching parents how to cope with the transitions of life due to childbearing and parenting. My professional counseling experience includes private practice, community service and hospice medical social work. As a therapist I have assisted people dealing with anxiety, grief, trauma, abuse, faith challenges, depression and self esteem.
Making the decision whether or not to seek help is a personal, and a very private one. In my experience the Client/Therapist relationship is a foundation of effective counseling. A person’s connection and comfort with the therapist are essential aspects of building a trust relationship and go far beyond what a therapeutic modality can offer by itself. I honor each person’s life struggles and believe that past circumstances help us recognize the strengths we want to take forward in life as well as helping us grow beyond past difficulties. This healing work better equips us to deal with current pain, trauma, and/or disappointments.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Helen very kindly messaged to check on me today. Definitely appreciate her thoughts and prayers.
Helen has been wonderful to work with. Exactly what I needed.
Helen is the sweetest person ever. Very kind and understanding and has helped me navigate through so much.
I am overwhelmed with gratitude. Being paired with Helen just two weeks ago has made a tremendous difference in my daily life and activities; what I choose to prioritize, track, reflect on and process out loud. Therapy was a bit of an "intervention" from my spouse and family members. I am so glad I found the strength to submit to their wisdom and ask for help.
She is awsome! I have not checked in but she definitely checks on me to make sure I'm ok! Very attentive!
She’s super understanding and has given me good tips to control my feelings.
Super awesome! She really listens and gives great advice.
Helen is a very compassionate listener and has such a wonderful, calming way. It feels like I am talking to a dear friend. It is so easy to tell that she really cares about me and how I am doing. My sessions with her have helped me so much.
She has been great! The last few weeks I can tell that I have been less depressed.

Helen is so sweet and understanding. One of the few counselors I’ve met that has a deeper understanding of the spiritual realm. I recommend her especially if you are a Christian or healing from sra/occultic background
Helen is truly gifted when it comes to working with me. You literally feel her peace and calmness when speaking. Helen is genuinely a wonderful therapist!
We have only had two sessions so far but I really look forward to digging deeper into my mind/ well being with her. She is extremely kind, caring and cheerful. I always walk away from my sessions feeling a weight lifted :)
She is a great listener and is very compassionate
Exceptional therapist. Wonderful approach to each session. Addresses needs
She is very supportive
Helen is an amazing listener! Her advice is well received! Having here a message away has been exactly what I've needed.
Helen has shown nothing but compassion toward me. I appreciate that she does not push me to discuss things I'm not ready to address. I high recommend Helen.
Helen is very easy to talk to, made me feel comfortable right from the start, felt comfortable to just open up with no judgement. She understand me as a woman and mother.
She is wonderful and so understanding.

Helen is wonderful. Although I haven’t talked to her to hear her voice, I can tell she’s very kind and caring. She gives me great tools to deal with my anxiety and also keeps it rooted in my Christian faith. She gives me support that makes me feel like I’m normal.
She’s very knowledgeable and is truly here for the patient. She’s helped me along the way.
Helen Coffman has been extremely helpful and professional in our sessions:) I really feel comfortable talking with her and she doesn’t make me feel like just another patient. She makes me feel like a friend and I absolutely love our sessions together! Before I signed up for BetterHelp, I didn’t think my anxiety would ever get any better but since being matched with Helen…I actually have seen progress and I feel so hopeful. Very very grateful for her and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking help with mental health:)
Helen is amazing! She has been so helpful with some complicated topics to work through. She’s always quick to respond and even check in on me if she hasn’t heard from me recently. I really enjoy being able to text back and forth with her!
Having Helen to vent to is like the breath of fresh air I've been missing out on for a very long time. I greatly appreciate her kind words, advice, blessings and much valued wisdom.
