Valerie Harris

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience in human services and therapy. I have worked with individuals of all ages, ethnicities, and cultural backgrounds, addressing concerns such as depression, anxiety, abuse, ADHD, relationship issues, and career challenges. Specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, my approach focuses on empowering and encouraging clients to create meaningful, lasting change.

My therapy style is relaxed and strengths-based, focusing on your unique needs. I believe you are the expert on your life, and our sessions are a space for open conversation. Together, we’ll identify what changes you’d like to make and how to recognize your progress. Clients often describe my sessions as feeling like talking to a supportive friend who offers honest, helpful insights to guide growth and change.

Clients can expect to feel heard, supported, and empowered with practical tools to overcome challenges. I focus on building self-awareness, challenging unhelpful thoughts, and fostering resilience, confidence, and emotional balance. Each session is a safe space to explore feelings, clarify goals, and develop actionable strategies for growth. My aim is to equip clients with skills to navigate obstacles and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.
