Kelly Harmon

I have always had a passion for helping others in whatever way possible. This passion led me to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Mississippi and Maryland. I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Sociology from Tulane University in 2006, and then obtained my Master of Social Work from the University of Mississippi in 2009. Since then I have specialized in working with teens and adults to address trauma, substance use, depression, anxiety, anger, and self-esteem.

Every person is unique so I mold my approach to best meet your goals and personality. My therapeutic approach consists of a mixture of evidence based practices including but not limited to; Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I use a warm, open-minded, empathetic, and strengths-based style to make you feel comfortable throughout the whole therapy process.

Our first session involves me getting to learn all about you from your childhood until now. Learning all of this is important to the process because it helps me get a whole picture of you and understand where your struggles originate from so that we can best address them. We then develop goals for therapy together and create at least 1 action step to do before our next session.
