Background and approach
Then she works with each person to set small goals and try approaches that fit their life. Harriette uses clear tools and conversations rather than jargon, so clients can take steps between visits. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past that still affect the present. For people who have experienced trauma, she integrates trauma-focused work to help reduce distress and build coping skills. Harriette values teamwork in care and coordinates when needed with psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, primary care, and social service agencies.
Her style is compassionate and nonjudgmental while still focused on progress and practical skills. Sessions aim to help people find more balance, purpose, and meaning. To begin, she asks about the problems that matter most and then builds a personalized plan.
That plan is guided by evidence-informed methods and tailored to each person’s goals and life situation.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online support
Harriette uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of daily functioning. CBT is practical and often focuses on small experiments and new ways of responding to stress and anxiety.She also draws on psychodynamic therapy to look at patterns that began earlier in life and still show up now. This approach helps people understand why certain reactions repeat and how to shift long-standing habits.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Harriette works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to focus on skills, past patterns, trauma-informed steps, or a combination that fits the issue at hand.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat or text messages are an option for brief check-ins, quick coping strategies, or flexible communication between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep momentum between visits.
