About Harriet
She has worked in counseling for 19 years, including time in grant-funded agencies focused on victims of crime. Her background includes a Bachelor of Psychology from University of Houston, Central Campus, and a Master’s in Counseling from University of Houston-Clear Lake. Early work as a psychiatric technician and a school counselor shaped her hands-on approach.
Harriet uses several conversational, goal-oriented methods in sessions. She leans on client-centered listening to let people tell their story, and uses cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused ideas to build small, doable changes. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of her toolkit when they fit a person’s goals.
She describes therapy as a cooperative process: gathering history, clarifying current problems, and aligning work with each person’s values. For anger management she offers simple, repeatable strategies to practice over weeks until responses shift.
People come for many concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, addiction, ADHD, mood disorders, and career stress. Harriet emphasizes steady support, practical skills, and helping people move toward a fuller life.

How these approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to a person. Online sessions can recreate that by giving space to tell your story and receive steady, nonjudgmental feedback. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets specific thoughts and behaviors with exercises and small experiments. This approach works well online because worksheets, goal-setting, and behavioral planning move the work forward between conversations. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve mood. These techniques can be shown, practiced, and reviewed during remote sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That information guides a shared decision about which methods to try and how to blend them to fit each person’s needs.
The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Online meetings can reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep regular appointments. If you plan to try online work, confirm which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking so you know what to expect.
