"Over the past few years, the demand for mental health services has increased. The field of mental health, in efforts to meet this demand, has caused the technique of counseling to become commercialized. When I created Harris & Harris my mission was to create a business practice that was ethically driven to get back to the basics of counseling. Customer volume should never be a measurement of success within a business, but providing consistent quality service should always be a measurement standard."

As a licensed professional counselor, I enjoy facilitating the process of lasting change in families, couples and individuals who feel 'stuck' in cycles that lead to feelings of hopelessness, depression, anger and sadness. I presently work with children, adolescents and adults who want help finding a way through anxiety, depression, mood disorders, attachment issues and trauma. I also provide neurofeedback at this time. Neurofeedback is a non-invasive approach to training our brain rhythms and can help with ADHD, depression, PTSD and peak performance issues.

I can help you understand your children's needs and recognize ways your past is influencing your relationship with your children or partner.
I am offering both tele-therapy and in-person services at this time. I have seen the flexibility that tele-therapy provides in allowing clients to more easily access services. I continue to offer a therapeutic space where you can slow down and consider more deeply the relational patterns in your life. I have found that many of my clients benefit from this approach and are more likely to sustain a mindful and flexible approach to change in life.

Therefore, I am able to help parents advocate for their children within the school system effectively.
My primary clients are individuals between 2 - 21 years (Adults on a case-by-case basis). I work with children and their families to provide more information about current presenting social, emotional, and/or behavioral concerns through a thorough assessment (i.e., 5+ hours of direct assessment) and/or through counseling. In counseling, I alone cannot change the person once per week or every other week; parents are key to successful treatment by implementing appropriate strategies, support, and structure needed for improvement (i.e., there is work for the adults too!). I can also help with navigating the school system. So, "How can I help?"

I have worked with children, adults, families, and adolescents over the last ten years.
We've all heard phrases like, "Pull yourself up by your bootstraps!" or "You have a lot to be thankful for!" Often times these phrases are more hurtful than helpful. They make you feel alone and unsure if what you're feeling is real. I love being able to help my clients realize that they're not alone, their feelings are valid, and that they do matter. When you make the steps to seek help. You are not weak, you are BRAVE!
