We all need a tune-up at certain times in our life. Our work together, tailored to each individual, offers the opportunity to help you to take charge of your thoughts, feelings and behaviors along with raising self-esteem, nurturing oneself in healthy, positive ways, releasing your emotional pain and assertively taking care of yourself with others. Childhood issues often create unidentified patterns that work silently in the background to sabotage you accomplishing your goals in life. I work interactively from a Mindfulness based approach as well as Cognitive-Behavioral, Family Systems and Psychodynamic Therapies.

My therapeutic goal is to tailor treatment to each individual's needs, situations and personalities through a collaborative process. I seek the optimal and most beneficial approach to the individual's needs, whether child, adolescent, adult, couples, or families. I have over 30 years experience working in the field with a wide variety of client populations. I have spent many years working with youth and special needs individuals who displayed severe challenging behaviors. This has included developmental disabilities, autism and those with self-harm and severe anger issues. My overall approach is holistic, integrative, and strength and evidence based.

We don't heal in isolation, but in community - SK Harrell. As a therapist I believe in the power of community, in the vital need for support to grow beyond who we are in this moment into who we want to be. I acknowledge the strength it takes to seek and accept supports, and I am honored to walk with you in this journey.

I believe that everyone, despite what label or diagnoses we have, deserves to be treated with fairness and empathy. We are not our past; we are not our mistakes and we are not to be judged based on these things. I find opportunity in challenging situations. My philsophy is that we are all doing the best we can based on our level of awareness. Every single being can work to expand on this. I see my job as working with you to shine a light on blind spots, thereby increasing our level of awareness. By doing this, we can address behavior and thought patterns which cause disruption in our lives.

I have experience working with a diverse population of people within varied settings. My background in the areas of mental health, domestic and sexual violence, substance abuse and co-occurring disorders allows me to be confident in providing the best treatment approaches for the individual. My therapeutic approach is client centered on why a person is entering therapy and what they need and want to achieve. I believe in working with the whole person integrating a holistic approach into therapy.

In my counseling role, I see myself as a fellow traveler on your path to wellness – someone to help you see, and use your strengths – and to cultivate peace in your life. I practice according to a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) model, which means I think we can develop emotional tools, skills, and strategies that can have a big impact on our lives, our relationships, and the way we feel. At the heart of all my work is a firm belief in mindful self compassion - not excuse making; rather a balanced view of self, and our connection to a common humanity.

Change can be hard sometimes, but also rewarding and empowering. I am always honored to be a part of each client’s change process. Our collaborative work will focus on your hopes, goals, and the tools you already have to help you achieve them. We will identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and work to restructure them to your benefit.
