Background and approach

Her background includes a master’s degree in professional counseling from Grand Canyon University earned in 2012 and a total of 12 years of clinical experience. She has worked in mental rehabilitation centers and intensive outpatient programs, and has collaborated with psychiatrists and primary care providers. In sessions Harriette listens for the values and goals that matter most to each person.

She helps craft a personalized plan that fits practical life demands. Therapy blends talking through current problems with learning tools to manage symptoms and build resilience. People who choose her often want a mix of short-term problem solving and deeper work on longstanding patterns.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Harriette uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and aimed at skills people can use between sessions to reduce anxiety and manage mood. Psychodynamic Therapy is also part of her work and looks at recurring relationship and behavior patterns that trace back to earlier experiences; this can help people understand why they repeat certain reactions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Harriette works with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. She draws on different techniques over time so therapy can be adjusted as progress and priorities change.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and hold longer conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work between meetings.
