Hello! You have taken the first step in your wellness journey. My name is Michelle Harris. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas (#72695). I believe that each individual has the capacity to learn, heal, and grow when they are in a supportive environment. In my work with clients I offer person-centered, positive regard while I listen to their story. We all have a story! Sometimes we need help processing our story from a new perspective. Each person is the author and expert of their journey. I will travel with you as you walk along your experiences and gain a greater insight to your next steps!

I am a professional educator and mental health provider. I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from the University of Texas in Arlington, my Master of Science degree in School Counseling from Amberton University, and my Advanced Certificate in Professional Counseling from Dallas Baptist University. I have worked in social services, child protective services, public education, and community mental health. I believe that my years of experience with varied populations has increased my appreciation of the human experience.

I look forward to hearing about your journey!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
