אני אעזור לכם רק אם תעזרו לעצמכן.

I think both the Hebrew and the English sentences are wrong here.
The English should be "... if you help..." without "will". (At least that's what I learned at school. Can a native speaker confirm?)
The Hebrew has a gender mismatch: it should be either "לכם... לעצמכם" or "לכן... לעצמכן".

It's rather awkward. I can't say it can never happen, but I found this article about using will twice in a sentence.
