About Harriet
Harriet Frank is a BACP counsellor who works with people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress or low mood. She helps individuals talk through worries about relationships, eating and self-esteem in short, clear sessions. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, aimed at making it easier to say what feels hard to say.
Harriet offers a calm listening space where a person can take time to sort through feelings. She focuses on what matters now and on small, practical steps that can ease daily life.
Background and approach
Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or messaging to fit different routines. With three years' experience, Harriet has supported people with a range of concerns. These include depression, social anxiety and phobias, body image and attachment issues.
She also works with people managing chronic illness, caregiver stress, separation and the shame or guilt that can follow major life changes. Her approach centres on understanding each person’s story and building from their strengths. Conversations look at patterns in thinking and behaviour and explore practical ways to change unhelpful cycles.
Harriet aims to help people feel more confident in themselves and better able to cope with everyday pressures. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. People who want to begin choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.
Approaches that help online
Harriet uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps people can try between sessions. One common approach helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test out more balanced ways of thinking. This can reduce anxiety and lift mood by changing how situations are interpreted.Another useful method looks at behaviour and routine. Small, planned changes to daily activities can ease stress and improve sleep, appetite and motivation. These changes are straightforward and aimed at making life feel more manageable day to day.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Harriet discusses options with each person and adapts methods to suit individual goals and preferences. The process is collaborative so clients help shape what the therapy focuses on and how progress is measured.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which gives flexibility around work, family and other commitments. Video is useful for fuller conversations, phone calls can fit a short break, and messaging suits quick check-ins or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care and to fit therapy into a busy life.
