Nicole Harris

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I bring a warm, grounded and approachable presence to therapy. Clients often tell me I'm easy to talk to and that I create a space where they feel understood rather than judged. As someone who balances many roles in my own life, I understand what it feels like to carry stress, navigate transitions, and show up for others while trying to take care of yourself. That lived perspective helps me connect with clients who are overwhelmed, burnt out, or searching for clarity and stability.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Speech and Hearing Disorders and my master's degree in Professional Counseling. I currently serve as a Clinical Supervisor and Program Director in community mental health, where I oversee clinicians, strengthen treatment programs, and support whole-person care across school, home and community settings. This background gives me a solid understanding of both the emotional and practical challenges people face.

I work with adults, teens, caregivers, parents, college students, and helping professionals. Some of the treatment areas I frequently support include:

  • Anxiety and stress
  • Depression
  • Trauma-related experiences
  • Grief and loss
  • Burnout and compassion fatigue
  • Life transitions
  • Self-Esteem
  • Relationship and family patterns

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Philadelphia

Finding the right family therapist in Philadelphia starts with identifying what your family is working through. Family therapy can address communication breakdowns, conflict between parents and children, blended family adjustments, and the impact of major life changes on the household. Look for a licensed provider — such as a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT), licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), or licensed professional counselor (LPC) — who has specific experience with family dynamics.

Philadelphia is home to a large and diverse community of mental health providers, but narrowing your options can still feel overwhelming. Consider what matters most to your family: whether you'd prefer in-person sessions in a neighborhood like Center City, Germantown, or South Philly, or the flexibility of virtual appointments. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their approach and help you decide if they're a good match before your first session.

Family therapy in Philadelphia can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with 821 insurance plans, making it easier to find a family therapist who is both the right fit and covered by your plan.
