I know that having an eating disorder is not easy and often misunderstood by friends and family. I want to help you work towards changing your attitude towards food and thoughts about your body by working with you to create and maintain a full and worthwhile life. I can help you improve and feel better by practicing evidence based therapies, such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). You don't have to do it alone. I want to help you address your problems and create new, effective solutions.

There is a beauty to life and the way that it moves, but it doesn't always feel beautiful. Whatever has brought you to consider meeting with a therapist, I hope you take a next step to setting an appointment. May therapy be a place where you share your load, find new perspectives, approaches and/or resources to the current challenge, so that you can take steps toward feeling like yourself - or perhaps a new version of yourself.

A main focus of my therapy is joining clients in what they are going through. Therapeutic workbooks are great, but there is a big difference between opening up to a workbook versus opening up to a human being. When we open up to another person we make ourselves vulnerable. That is when true growth begins. I set out to try and help people deal with the core issues, as well as enhance their core strengths. When there is recovery in the core, the symptoms can be dealt with. Our problematic situations and behaviors are but a symptom. Website: jeremyharveymft.com

I work at ARC Counseling and Wellness both online and in person. I utilize treatment approaches based upon the unique needs of each client while considering the scientific efficacy of each therapeutic intervention. My experience and training have made me sensitive to the fact that no two clients are the same and thus I approach treatment with consideration of each client's values, cultural identity, religious or spiritual beliefs, strengths, and life experiences. I endeavor to provide a supportive therapeutic environment in which clients may become empowered and move towards a greater quality of life.

Depression. Anxiety. Relationship and career problems. These very real difficulties of living represent potent opportunities for growth and transformation. In reality, this is not always easy to see. A key step is developing insight, combined with a willingness to accept increasing levels of personal responsibility. As a therapist and coach, my orientation is holistic. I incorporate a whole-person approach that emphasizes physical, mental, emotional, and interpersonal factors. I view human experience as an inherently creative process, and work to empower clients to harness their innate potential to create meaningful and fulfilling lives through committed action based on personal values.
