How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Many of the evidence-based therapeutic techniques Dr. Harris uses focus on clear skills and step-by-step practice. Cognitive approaches help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns, which can reduce anxiety and low mood. Behavioral strategies encourage small, measurable actions that rebuild routine and confidence after trauma, grief, or addiction.

These approaches emphasize teaching practical tools and setting goals together. Finding the right approach is part of the work; the therapist and client collaborate to choose methods that match the person’s needs, goals, and pace. Adjustments are made over time based on what is most helpful.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and avoid travel time. It can also let people use quieter surroundings or simpler audio-only calls when video is difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to remote sessions so progress continues between meetings.
