I enjoy the assessment and therapeutic approach for complex clients presenting with dual diagnoses of mental health issues and developmental challenges and assisting them to navigate social environments and community amenities. Such clients often present with Social Anxiety, Depression, and trauma-related issues and goals often entail improved confidence in interpersonal and social settings as well as improving anxiety, and building resilience for trauma-related issues. Such clients want to improve their daily functioning in order to cope with life's challenges and manage daily stressors as well as learn new skills to adapt.

I support women aged 15+ navigating anxiety, grief and loss, relationship challenges, and major life transitions such as relocation or immigration. I also walk alongside ministry leaders, including pastors and chaplains, who may be carrying the weight of leadership while quietly feeling weary or in need of support. Many clients feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain, and seek a safe space to process what they’re going through and find clarity and hope.

As C.S. Lewis once wrote: “Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward.” Holding on to the past can keep individuals from healing and moving forward. I support clients in finding the courage to let go and move through their healing journey. I offer a safe, respectful space to explore their experiences, reconnect with values, and move toward meaningful change. My approach is compassionate, integrative, and trauma-informed, with openness to incorporating Christian faith or personal beliefs when meaningful to the individual.

Welcoming New Clients.
Hello, I’m Harriet. I work with overthinkers, high-achievers, and busy professionals who often feel mentally stretched, caught in cycles of worry, or unable to switch off. If you struggle with racing thoughts, perfectionism, difficulty resting, or feeling constantly “on,” therapy can help you feel calmer, think more clearly, avoid burnout, and be more present. Together, we can explore strategies to notice stress earlier, respond to emotions with self-kindness, pause before reacting, make decisions with confidence, embrace slower mornings, rest without guilt, and stay aligned with your values.

Emotionally Focused Therapists
Who is emotionally focused therapy for?
Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) is for couples who are emotionally distressed, stuck in an unsatisfying relationship pattern or feeling deeply alienated. They may even believe the relationship is beyond repair. Very often, the partners display intense anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal in the relationship. In addition, EFT is helpful to couples and individuals who have difficulty expressing emotions and those who have trouble regulating emotions.
Why do people need emotionally focused therapy?
People need emotionally focused therapy because the need for others is built into the brain, but the pressures of daily life can erode feelings of love, and couples often do not have the skills to find their way back to the comfort of each other. Instead, they may be stuck in repetitive patterns of anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal. Emotionally focused therapy regards such strong negative feelings as expressions of protest over the loss of connection and turns them into pathways of reconnection.
What happens in emotionally focused therapy?
Over the course of eight to 20 weekly sessions, couples de-escalate their negative emotional reactivity to one another so that they can listen to each other and be responsive to each other’s needs. Then the deep emotional and physical bond is restored, giving partners a sense of comfort and security, which they can use to solve whatever problems come their way. The therapist plays an active role, helping partners understand how anger and withdrawal are actually misguided cries for connection.
What problems does emotionally focused therapy treat?
EFT is designed to help couples stuck in dysfunctional relationship patterns regain closeness and rebuild their relationship. Typically, such couples experience considerable distress, with partners feeling alienated and distrustful of one another, not certain their relationship can survive. EFT is also helpful to individuals experiencing attachment-related fears of loss; it helps them learn to use their fears as a way of eliciting the closeness they desire.
