a word from our clients...

Real people. Real experience.

Helen has provided a breadth of communications services to organizations and professionals across missions and expertise. Here's how some of them felt about our collaboration.

Helen developed workshops and keynotes presented to our staff and volunteers. She engaged and empowered them to be stronger spokespeople and better communicators for our organization. By sharing her skills and talents...combined with some humor and passionate experiences, she was able to make a difficult subject easy to understand. Her presentation skills are outstanding and I would recommend her to anyone.

Helen helped me lift my game as a public speaker–honing my on-stage presentations, vocal variations and command of an audience. She edited my prepared remarks, adding pacing and humor, and kept me on track prepping for events. Helen knows what an audience wants and knows how to help you deliver just that.

As a physician and researcher, I was never trained in giving media interviews or how to message in a succinct understandable way. Helen has done a wonderful job in coaching me on how to interview effectively and developed informative media briefings regarding my work. I am no longer self-conscious in front of cameras or reporters. 

Helen was brilliant at explaining the nuances of interview techniques, helping me to anticipate questions and craft answers that got my message across. Her advice was always clear, specific and encouraging. Thanks to Helen, I felt confident and prepared--and ended up actually enjoying the interview!

I can't say enough good things about Helen Jonsen. She is a dream to work with. Professional, polite, personable and competent. Her communication skills are outstanding.
