Helen Labadie

Helen Labadie hails from our nation’s capital and moved to Massachusetts to pursue a degree in clinical mental health counseling from Lesley University.  A former conference planner with a bachelor's degree in both biology and German studies, Helen believes that the direct path is not always the most transformational. Helen has worked as a high school counselor and as community outreach therapist, conducting sessions in elementary, middle, and high schools in the Greater Lowell area. While she enjoys working with a wide variety of clients, Helen believes she is best utilized when working with children, adolescents, and young adults, as well as members of the LGBTQIA+ community.  Her areas of strength include the treatment of depression, self-harm,and borderline personality disorder. Helen’s work takes a person-centered approach, with a focus on the therapeutic alliance and authenticity in session. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy add structure and concrete skills to her treatment plans.

​Helen’s life outside work involves quilting, playing games on her PC, watching movies with friends and walking with her pit-mix, Odin.
