His background includes long-term clinical work across a range of mood and behavioral concerns.

How his approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Harris uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on present problems and skill building. One common approach is cognitive-behavioral style work, which helps identify unhelpful thinking and teaches practical strategies for reducing anxiety and managing mood. This method is useful for stress, worry, depression, and many daily challenges.Another frequently used method focuses on processing difficult or traumatic experiences in measured steps. This work helps people regain a sense of control and develop stronger ways to cope with triggers or intrusive memories. It is aimed at reducing distress and improving day-to-day functioning after trauma.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they will try approaches that match the person's needs and adjust as therapy progresses.
