More about me

Licensing: LPC Years in Practice: 7 State: Missouri

Hello-

I have been a licensed LPC counselor in Missouri for the past five years and was recently licensed in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, District of Columbia, Maine, and Virginia. Working with individuals, families, and couples has provided me with the ability to assist individuals throughout many aspects of their lives.

I have had training in DBT, CBT, EMD-R and continue to grow my therapeutic knowledge through self-training and through clinical training. I have had the pleasure of working in many different fields throughout my life time and feel this has provided me with the ability to look at situations from a variety of different perspectives.

I firmly believe that when a person makes the choice to make changes in their life then they are on the path to becoming who they want to be.

I look forward to hearing from you and assisting you with determining who you want to be.

Thank you,

Savannah Harness, LPC

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online 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.

Overall

Savannah is professional and takes her job and my issues very serious.

Supportive, professional, for a difficult complex situation

She is awesome!!! She'll listen to you and offers wonderful advice .

Savannah's approach, thus far, seems that it will focus on small and actionable items. We're not re-hashing my past and my youth (thank goodness) as we get started. Not that these things aren't important, but they can make the experience that much more difficult. She trusts that as we progress, these topics will come up organically when I'm moving through a specific complexity. I've never worked with someone who's approach is like this, but I think it will do better for me. Savannah wants to help me build myself up, and part of that means setting and working towards goals.

Savannah has helped me get through so many roadblocks in my life due to my mental health. She is uplifting while still being realistic about my situation. I look forward to meeting with her every week!

I love her as my therapist, she is very approachable and I feel less alone by talking to her.

Savannah is an excellent therapist! She patiently listened to me and politely answered my questions.

I have had the privilege of working with Savannah for a while now and I am incredibly thankful to have found her. Finding a therapist is HARD and I breathed a sigh of relief after meeting with Savannah. Since then, she has helped me to work through things I wasn't even aware of, challenged me to better myself, served as a listening ear, and has just been an amazing support all around. I love that she follows up every serious moment we have with a bit of levity because that's what I need; it's something that demonstrates how well she knows her clients and how much she cares.

Savannah is an amazing therapist and has helped me overcome so many struggles!

Savannah is awesome. She is always there for me and is more than my therapist, she’s a friend.

She has helped me so much! I never thought I would be able to do what I do now, all thanks to Savannah Harness.

It’s been very nice having someone that actually communicates with me and doesn’t gaslight me or yell at me for having feelings and having someone that understands me

Savannah is great so far. I have had a few sessions with her and she was able to identify my issues right away. We are currently working to help me through them!

She's awesome

I don’t know where to start. I’ve been seeing Savannah as my therapist for nearly 2 years now and I’m not sure where I’d be without her. She shows compassion, kindness and remembers every detail. She’s fabulous and I can’t thank her more.

Savannah has been excellent the entire time I’ve worked with her. She has understood scheduling conflicts, family drama, rescheduling, and much more. She’s an empathetic, understanding therapist. The one downside is you can only see her for 30 minutes. I wish I could see her for 45 mins-1 hr at a time!

Savannah is great! She’s not just my therapist, she’s my friend.

Savannah has been supportive in a way that meets my needs with a busy schedule. She is flexible and able to change platforms on the fly. She listens and validates my concerns.

She’s so nice and down to earth.

Savannah's support gave me what I needed to finnaly turn my life around after years feeling anxious and overwhelmed for reasons that eluded me. Can definitely recommend her help^^

She is very attentive and caring. Gives great feedback and genuinely cares. Also very chill and laid back so easy to talk to.

She’s sensationally empathetic

Savannah has been great. I’ve been changing therapist because I don’t believe it works. She makes sure i'm comfortable and we get to know each other before I pour my heart out to her.

Savannah is awesome. Such a great listener and someone I can trust which is so important to me.

Savannah Harness has given me worksheets, advise, and suggestions for every thing I've wanted to focus and work on to better myself. She has always messaged me in a timely manner and I really appreciate all her help.

She is great so far and keeps in contact

I am grateful to have found Savannah. I didn’t think online therapy would be helpful but she asks questions on point. Texting with her keeps me focused. I appreciate her giving me thought provoking questions. She listens and tries to keep my crazy mind on track!

Savannah is so great. She is very practical and always helps me look for the concrete step I can take next. But she also knows when I have just hit my max and the best next step is NOTHING but taking some time. Savannah also has a good sense of humor, which really helps when dealing with heavy stuff. 10/10 would def recommend.

She always gives me quality advice, and encourages me to see all sides of a problem. Punctual, efficient and funny as all get out. I’d highly recommend Savannah to family or friends.

Savanah has provided me with great support thus far.

She is very helpful and checks in frequently. Always answers any questions I may have.

She listens and responds to you whenever you have a concern and give you skills to use to get you through the current issue that actually works.

Savannah is the best therapist I've ever had, hands down. She is kind, understanding, a great listener, and her insight has been amazing. She has helped me through many problems, its ridiculous. I couldn't have asked for a better therapist .10|10

New to Therapy, so far so good. Savannah has been fantastic so far. Looking forward to the next session.

She listens and help when needed

Helpful, understanding, and precise are all great descriptions of Savannah's therapy.

Savannah has been such an incredible help for me personally. She listens to what I have to say without judgement. She takes her time to truly understands me. This experience has been so key for overcoming some of my personal hurdles in my life and the things I continue to work on. Savannah is fantastic.

Always attentive

I've been working with Savannah for a couple of months and I have nothing but good things to say about her. I'm not a stranger to therapy and was even with my last therapist for several years before moving. She has tried different techniques, provides things for me to follow up on, and regularly checks in: especially if she knows (or thinks) it might be a rough time. I feel that I have made good progress since I began working with her, and while there is still work to be done, I am confident I am in good hands.

Savannah makes me feel like I’m not alone and she understands my concerns. I feel so much better after our session. It’s very positive and uplifting.

Honestly given this is my first go around of talking with a therapist I’d say it’s a real strong start. Talking with Ms. Harness is very similar to how I’d talk with the professors I had that were super relaxed and honest. Never do I feel unease’s and I’m able to just speak my thoughts and lay everything on the table knowing they’re in good hands I can trust without question.

Absolutely so blessed to have been matched with Savannah. Some of my friends have gone through a few therapists before they find the one that clicks for them and I’m so lucky to have found her on my first try. She’s seriously the best and I always recommend her to my friends and colleagues

Savannah has been my saving grace these past 10 months. Savannah always checks in, responds within a 24 hour time frame with detail and understanding for what I’m going through and suggestions on what to do to help. Our live sessions are something I look forward to every week, she always helps me prioritize my needs and I’ve grown so much because of her in setting up healthy boundaries and only taking on what I’m able to. Savannah always makes me feel heard and helps me talk through what I’m going through and gives great advice or even just acknowledgement that my feelings are valid. Savannah always makes me feel like a priority, she is flexible with scheduling and goes above and beyond to be there when things are really bad. Savannah is easy to talk to and I’m going to miss my weekly sessions with her, she is an amazing person and fantastic therapist. I don’t think I would have made it through the toughest year of my life without her, she truly is amazing. Thank You Savannah for everything you’ve done for me, I cannot wait until we can connect again.

savannah is incredible! i’m really grateful that I was paired with her. she is a great at listening and responding professionally and in a positive way.

Savannah is an amazing listener, this is the first time I have been able to do therapy long term. She really lets you also participate with a lot of agency in the process.

I am really glad I was paired up with Savannah. She is such a funny and caring person to talk to. Her words and stories make me feel so happy and calm. Savannah has given me confidence and reassurance in what I’m doing so that I am able to control and relieve my stress. She is truly a wonderful person.

My progress in therapy with Savannah has been the key to my mental health. I'm able to process my emotions in chunks and not get overwhelmed. Her approach is knowledgeable without feeling clinical. I appreciate how she can adapt our sessions to my moods and headspace. The best part is when we wrap up I feel hopeful and can return to my day in a productive capacity.

She is genuine, concise and a wonderful listener with great perspective. I still have work to do but thanks to Savannah I am confident I will achieve the mental balance I deserve to have

I really enjoy the way she is always there for me and listens. She does extremely well in listening to you and providing great resources for you to excel! She has shared a video that has resonated with me on a deep level and I would highly recommend her!

She’s awesome

She is awesome.

She's wonderful her methods are unique per person as I feel she is very in tune with helping me through my bug battles as well as every day little ones.

She's amazing

Counseling is still early and have only talked with her twice but she is great at listening and asks the engaging questions that need to be addressed. She listens and responds perfectly

I can’t even begin to express how much help I got from Savannah. Not only an excellent counselor but a wonderful person. Very kind and sympathetic. Every week I looked forward to our sessions. I had my cry sessions but then I had a few laugh sessions. Anyone who has her for a counselor would be all the better for it. She gave me a lot of every day tools to work with which I greatly appreciated. Thank you Savannah for all of your help. I will never forget you.

Savannah does an awesome job or hearing me out as well as providing action steps to implement what I’m learning through this process.

Savannah made me feel very comfortable from the get go. Even after only a few sessions, I truly feel she has helped me learn and grow. She makes therapy attainable and accessible, helping me focus on my personal goals. During a difficult time she has been a wonderful source of support and guidance. I appreciate her calm, kind demeanor, and am grateful I started therapy with her.

Savannah made me feel validated and I can tell she cares

Savannah has been a great help in helping me to understand just what is truly going on with me. I’ve recommended her and this app to friends and colleagues at work sense starting with BetterHelp

I've only been on two sessions but it's been a great start. I really like interacting during the week before my next session keeps me proactive and gives me hope.

Savannah is such a great listener. She’s really professional, yet friendly. She has helped me cope with my situation a lot. She’s excellent, patient and non judgmental. I found the right therapist. I would recommend her to anyone.

Savannah was an amazing Councillor. She is incredibly welcoming and will listen in detail to whatever issue that you might be having. She also is always available and will always find ways to assist you in any specific issue you might be experiencing I absolutely recommend her for anyone seeking counselling through betterhelp

I was in a clusterdump of problems mental and literal. Through betterhelp I found a counselor who helped me set realistic goals and navigate through my anxiety so I could solve my issues.

She's just really good at her job, I feel so comfortable talking to her about anything that sometimes I forget I'm in a session.

I've just started sessions with Savannah and already am starting to feel better. It was very easy to open up to her, she is kind, approachable, and very easy to talk to. Savannah makes a point of checking-in between sessions if she knows something important is happening throughout the week, and often understands my fears that I have trouble putting into words as I'm working to articulate them. She has a calming presence and her advice is helpful, uplifting and much appreciated. I'm really grateful BetterHelp matched me with Savannah.

Savannah is really nice and understanding!! She's easy to chat and we had some good laughs together! We just started councelling so I can't really say about long term yet, but so far so good

Savannah is amazing and a great person to talk to

Savannah is my second therapist so I was initially unsure on how this would work, if I’d feel comfortable opening up to her. The first meeting was usual but things got better. She was quick in her response and I appreciated that she’d check in. She is supportive and posiitve which really helped with increasing the comfort level to confide and get to the bottom of things. We set personal goals and she empowers me to work on next steps together. At any time when I took a few steps back, she’s kind, empathetic and encouraging.

Savannah is a great listener and made me feel comfortable with her relaxed, kind energy to speak openly. My time spent talking to Savannah helped me feel happier in myself. Thank you!

I can highly recommend Savannah to anyone. There is not enough word to describe how supportive and kind she is. Our sessions are very refreshing and helping me to cope with everyday struggles. She understands me and encourage to complete activities which are helping me to deal with my anxiety. She never judges and always listens to all my problems. Don't know how I would survive last couple months without her.

Savannah is truly wonderful. Over the years I have built up so many walls and I am the type that feels very anxious to open up to anyone and be vulnerable. She always checked up on me to make sure I am okay and offers her services to me. She is very patient with me and very respectful of what I have to say. I can't recommend Savannah enough because she genuinely tries her best to make sure that I am doing alright and encourages me to the right path.

I’ve been working with Savannah for a couple of months now and she is just amazing. The stability and strength I’ve gained both mentally and emotionally is fantastic, I’m at a place I never thought I would be. Savannah is a very caring and open minded individual who shows great empathy when working with me, I can speak freely without the fear of being judged. I always know that regardless of any situation or rant that I need; I can turn to Savannah!

I've been working with Savannah for a few weeks and she's wonderful. She responds really quickly to my messages and checks in if she hasn't heard from me in a few days. She gives me a lot of practical advice to help me manage my anxiety and organize my thoughts and is super kind, supportive and understanding.

Savannah Harness is absolutely amazing. I was so hesitant to try therapy for the first time, especially with it being online, but she has made me feel comfortable and heard. She responds quickly and to every single one of my concerns. It has only been a couple of weeks and I already feel so much better talking to her. Thank you Savannah.

Savannah is very thoughtful and checks in on you throughout the week. Doing EMDR has already had incredible changes to my life and dealing with problematic memories. She also makes sure to take you through any sensations through breathing exercises which is very helpful. I would really recommend her as a therapist!

She is a very good listener. Understands cultural diversity in reference to respect, integrity and morals. She provided very useful resources which I benefited a lot and my siblings. I will keep her as the family therapist.

Savannah is great, she always answers my long messages and never forgets to comment on each part. She makes me consider things I never even thought of before. I can feel my confidence growing.

Savannah is a great listener. She’s very easy to talk to about any issues you’re having and she provides excellent advice.

Savannah is a great therapist. She's a good listener, understanding and offers very good feedback based on what you've said, even despite the topics being very tricky. I would wholeheartedly recommend her

It's early days but Savannah has been an asset to the betterhelp platform so far. She's responsive, flexible, easily engenders trust and she feels both authentic and relateable. The tasks she sets are small enough to feel achieveable and big enough to get you moving in the right direction.
