I literally will not go to anyone else, the more sessions I do the more she remembers and cares. I love that she never minimizes an obstacle I may have and is very comforting.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I have been seeing Miss Harris for a while now, and it's safe to say that she has been instrumental in my journey toward better mental health. I've seen therapists before, but none have combined the trifecta of listening, challenging, and intelligence as effectively as Miss Harris. A Listener at Heart The first thing you'll notice about Miss Harris is that she genuinely listens. It's a trait that many people claim to have, but she truly embodies it. In a world where most are just waiting for their turn to speak, she pays full attention to every word you say, making you feel heard and valued. A Catalyst for Deep Reflection Miss Harris has a unique ability to push you just the right amount, challenging you to confront issues you may have been avoiding. Her questions are often those I haven't considered but are essential for personal growth. She never imposes her thoughts or solutions on me but facilitates a self-discovery process that feels organic and empowering. A Smart, Well-Informed Professional It's clear that Miss Harris isn't just compassionate and incredibly smart. She effortlessly synthesizes complex theories and approaches, tailoring them to fit my needs. Her extensive knowledge lends credibility and fosters a safe space where I know I'm in capable hands. Overall, therapy with Miss Harris has been a transformative experience. Her professionalism, depth of knowledge, incredible listening skills, and challenging questions make her an excellent choice for anyone looking to work on themselves in a thoughtful and supported environment.

She takes the time to listen to me and helps me through very challenging situations some of which I hadn't even realized it was an issue until she helped me through guidance and knowledge. I would highly recommend her for anyone else needing a real human being perspective and not textbook 101

Miss Harris is fantastic. My time with her over the last few months has really turned my anxiety around. She is compassionate, a wonderful listener, knows her stuff, shares data that backs up what she is telling me about, and gives me actual tools regularly to 1. keep up with progress through the week and 2. give me new strategies for approaching things. Miss Harris is also incredibly responsive on the app. I honestly don’t know how I would be navigating my days without the help she has provided me. I was experiencing daily anxiety attacks when I started seeing her and those have totally subsided since working with her. I have so many new ways to think of things and always look forward to my next session. To put it simply, Miss Harris is brilliant, professional, kind, understanding, and generous with her wisdom. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
