In sessions she listens first, then helps people set small, concrete steps they can try between meetings. That might include choices about coping strategies, communication with others, or ways to manage overwhelming feelings. She frames work as coaching plus counseling when that fits the person’s aims.
Dr. Harris offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. She works from North Carolina and also accepts international clients who prefer online work.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Dr. Harris uses a person-centered way of working that starts with listening closely to what the person says and values. This approach helps people feel heard and helps shape goals that matter to them, whether the focus is on anxiety, parenting challenges, or grief.She also attends to mind-body-spirit connections, looking at practical habits and routines as well as beliefs and emotions. That means conversations may include coping strategies, small behavioral changes, and ways to build on existing strengths to reduce stress and improve mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Harris collaborates with each person to decide which techniques to try first and adjusts as needs and goals change. Decisions are based on the client's concerns, daily life, and what feels most useful in follow-up conversations.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and real-time interaction, while phone sessions can work when camera use is impractical. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, brief coaching moments, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options provide flexibility to fit sessions around work, caregiving, and travel.
