Hi, I’m Helen

Helen - Helps

Artist • Facilitator • Creative Guide • Retreat Leader

I am a multidisciplinary artist, educator, and facilitator with a deep passion for creative expression as a pathway to healing and growth. My work spans a wide range of media, including ceramics, collage, fiber arts, enameling, jewelry, art journaling, soap making, wood burning, and mixed media.

As the Assistant Director of Adjunctive Therapies at Skyland Trail a nationally recognized nonprofit mental health treatment organization, I work with adults navigating primary psychiatric diagnoses, using creativity as a tool for connection, expression, and transformation. I also teach self-development and art classes in the community, supporting others in rediscovering their innate creativity and sense of purpose.

One-on-One Coaching:

This is a space for deeper, personalized support. Together, we’ll gently explore what’s feeling stuck or out of alignment - whether in your mindset, relationships, career, or overall sense of self. Blending creative, emotional, and intuitive approaches, we’ll uncover root patterns and move toward greater clarity, healing, and authentic growth.

Wellness Retreats:

My retreats are designed as intentional spaces to pause, reset, and reconnect. Held in beautiful, nurturing environments, each experience weaves together creativity, reflection, and holistic practices to support deep healing and personal transformation. Whether you’re seeking clarity, emotional renewal, or simply time to reconnect with yourself, these retreats offer a powerful and supportive container for growth.

Holistic Approach:

My approach goes beyond traditional coaching. I work with individuals who feel stuck or searching for something more, exploring not only practical and emotional patterns, but also the deeper spiritual and energetic layers that influence our lives. Through this integrative lens, I support profound healing, self-discovery, and authentic growth..

Philosophy:

I believe that healing and growth happen when we are given the space to be fully ourselves - creative, curious, and authentic. My work brings together practical guidance with intuitive and creative practices, supporting both grounded change and deeper transformation. My intention is for you to feel not only empowered, but reconnected to your sense of purpose, possibility, and inner knowing.

Background + Education —

Originally from the Northeast of England, I spent my formative years living in South Africa, Croatia, and England. These experiences deeply influence my creative perspective and the way I connect with others.

I am also a trained SoulCollage® Facilitator, weaving creative, intuitive, and soul-centered practices into my work to support deep personal growth and self-discovery. As a Reiki Master, I incorporate energy healing into my offerings, creating space for energetic alignment, restoration, and a deeper connection to inner wisdom.

Whether through art, ritual, or retreat experiences, my intention is to offer spaces where you can slow down, reconnect, and come home to yourself.
