Meet Helana Russo, LPC, LCADC, ACS
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor with over thousands of hours helping people uncover and heal the patterns that keep them stuck.
​
Together, let's identify what’s driving your behavior, unpack the emotional load you've been carrying, and start rebuilding a life that actually feels good to live.
Many of my clients are high-achieving professionals who look successful on the outside—but carry deep wounds underneath.
They’ve survived trauma, betrayal, or emotional neglect. They’ve learned to cope through overworking, numbing, perfectionism, or control.
​
They’re not broken. They’re burned out.
And together, we work to rebuild something stronger.
Specializing In:
Emotional Regulation
You don’t have to explode or shut down. Therapy helps you name, manage, and respond to your emotions in a way that doesn’t cost you your peace—or your relationships.
Relationship Counseling
When disconnection, resentment, or past pain is running the show, therapy helps you rebuild trust, improve communication, and create the kind of connection you actually want to come home to.
Trauma Recovery
Old wounds don’t just go away—they shape your relationships, self-worth, and daily stress. We’ll face what’s unfinished so you can stop reacting from survival and start living with intention.
Substance Abuse
Whether it’s alcohol, drugs, or behavior-based addictions, we’ll look at what’s underneath the pattern and start replacing numbing with clarity, accountability, and healthier ways to cope and connect.
High-Functioning Stress
You’re always “on,” but at what cost? Therapy offers a place to decompress, get honest about your limits, and build strategies that keep your success from running you into the ground.
Identity & Self-Worth
You can look successful on the outside and still feel like you’re not enough. We’ll work on grounding your confidence in who you are—not what you achieve or provide.
