More about me

Licensing: Licensed Professional Counselor(LPC) Years in Practice: 20 State: Georgia

Hi, my name is Oliver Harper and I possess a wide range of clinical experiences working within residential settings for adolescents; short term acute care facilities as a clinician and consultant with adults and adolescents; worked in various communities of Metro Atlanta providing in-home therapy and maintained a private practice for 15 years. I graduated with an MS in Professional Counseling from Georgia State University; along with attending Seminary in Atlanta and obtained graduate degrees in Leadership and Apologetics. I also attended business school and worked on Wall Street and have undergraduate and graduate degrees in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. I have specialized and certificate training in REBT, Adlerian Psychology, DBT, and Parenting. I primarily use Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy as my primary treatment modality as it is very effective in reducing stress and anxiety while providing pragmatic tools for effective living. Over my professional, life I have had significant exposure to working with traumatized clients and have learnt interventions to address its impact. I have authored two books. I also incorporate Stoic philosophy as a therapeutic intervention in the service of clients.

My therapeutic skill set provides a compassionate inquiry into the lives of individuals challenged with childhood shadows induced by family dysfunction, trauma, alcoholism, anxiety, perfection tendencies, and an overwhelming need for approval and validation. My clinical training will facilitate clients to connect the dots between then and now and integrate the fragmentation at the root of their maladaptive patterns. I am a lifelong learner and have dedicated my life to being of service;I believe in the innate capacity of individuals and their potential to be their own rescue with guidance and to know that there is something distinct, unique, and specific about each of us and my clinical task is to guide each individual to share that belief.

The therapeutic relationship is a sacred trust and it is a privilege to be a witness to the inner world of others and to support them in their discovery, recovery, and integration of their best self. Allow me to journey with you and I promise to be present with you all the way to a better version of yourself by strengthening your identity capital.

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. Ranging from $60 to $90 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.

I have enjoyed my therapy in the past year with Oliver and if feels like there is never enough time to talk.

He speaks with such grace and empathy, and opened up quite a lot of paths of thoughts I have never explored myself. I highly recommend Oliver as a therapist! He is more a friend than a therapist.

Overall

Oliver is one of the best counselors I've worked with. He is down to earth and very professional.

N.A.·Jul 21, 2021

Overall

Oliver remains the best therapist I've ever had! He has everything that I as a patient have dreamed of a therapist having: * the perfect balance of fluid conversation without yes-man-ing me * offering informative texts, writing prompts, thought experiments, and worksheets over our text chat platform * working concepts that I care about and want to work on into my current day-to-day (holding me accountable) * trying to find the root of any habits, trauma responses, or reactionary behavior (usually childhood trauma!). He is clinical while also being emotionally relatable and compassionate. He makes me feel seen and cared for. This human Oliver Harper is on this earth to heal, to help, and to guide. We need more Oliver Harpers and I'm so lucky to have found him via this new frontier of online counseling platforms.

O.R.·Jul 16, 2021

Overall

Oliver is a great listener and offers incredible advice, insights and helps guide me to solutions. My day to day life has improved dramatically since I’ve started speaking with Oliver. Ive had great success applying the different techniques and processes that he and I discuss. So thankful.

Oliver is amazing. Love that guy! He keeps me focused on my goals and he listens. He also laughs at my jokes, but I digress lol. Oliver challenges me and I need that. He’s simply, great.

Oliver is a god sent ! Choosing to go through therapy is the hard enough..

U.M.·Jun 23, 2021

Overall

I have been doing sessions with my therapist for almost a year now and i love it. It feels like such a warm and safe place with no judgment, as opposed to a more clinical feeling. I have made so much progress during this time and the weekly sessions give me so much encouragement.

G.E.·Jun 19, 2021

Overall

I've been with Oliver for almost 6 months now and he has been amazing as a therapist and as a friend. He's never once made me feel uncomfortable talking about things that I need to talk about and is always gentle and supportive when it comes to digging and deciphering the hard stuff. He is truly empathetic and always provides me with so much insight - I believe it's because he has had so many experiences within his work and also in his personal life. I really really do enjoy speaking with him. I am so grateful to have been matched with him on this platform and if you're looking to have him as your therapist, go for it! He helped me change my life :)

L.U.·Jan 12, 2021

Overall

Oliver Harper is compassionate and attentive. He appreciates unique souls and doesn’t judge or scold when it comes to the work we all need to do. He feels like a friendly and relatable uncle or cousin. He wants to know you and truly connect. It’s beautiful and the best therapy experience I’ve ever had. I LOVE the worksheets he provides to help me really PRACTICE the things I want to work on in daily life. He’s not a sycophant, won’t let me slip into bad habits, and yet I never feel even the least bit judged. I would recommend Oliver Harper to anyone and everyone who wants to do self work but also needs a lot of love and a judgement free zone.

O.R.·Dec 26, 2020

Overall

Oliver touches lives. He is a true empath; who isnt afraid of focusing so intently and investing so generously in his clients. I feel like Oliver has done MUCH more for me than I had hoped - he exceeded all my expectations, helped me cope, and his words and logic resound so strongly with me. His impact is life long, and I truly am grateful for him and his methods. Thank you, Oliver!

N.A.·Dec 24, 2020

Overall

I started talking with Oliver 5 months ago. I had not had the best experiences with therapy prior to that and I did not have the highest expectations. Today I went back and read the initial messages I sent and couldn't believe how much healthier and happier I am now. Oliver has given me the tools I need to manage my mental health. He is kind and patient but more importantly he is passionate about his work. I will be forever grateful

D.A.·Nov 18, 2020

Overall

Oliver has helped me in many ways despite our relatively short time working together. He’s helped me gain a better outlook on the world, and he has helped me install some new philosophies and principles that I’ve found to be very useful in my day to day life and coping with everyday stress, as well as helping me and guiding me through some tough personal decisions, and working on myself and my behaviour.

G.U.·Nov 06, 2020

Overall

I was so thankful for my experience with Oliver. He used careful consideration and knowledge of best practices to thoroughly address my issues and help me feel like myself again. Oliver was curious about my experiences and helped me understand how those brought me to where I am today. Through our sessions, I was able to shift my thought processes about myself and diminish my experiences of depression and anxiety. I would highly recommend Oliver.

J.O.·Oct 28, 2020

Overall

Oliver is a great listener, he also helps me ground myself when I'm scared or something isn't going well in my life. I've noticed he sends videos relevant to a small struggle your having example not being able to fall asleep or having trouble getting to bed, and the fixes are so simple. He's very supportive with anything you may be dealing with and he's a strong advocate on loving oneself and it's something I struggle with often. Since I started with Oliver I've noticed a big change in my day to day life and can't wait to learn what else I'll discover about myself and maybe others in my life throughout this process.

K.A.·Oct 22, 2020

Overall

Very kind, senetive and easy to talk to. Oliver got me straight away. I'm looking forward to a better understanding of myself and my issues.

S.A.·Oct 20, 2020

Overall

I have had two sessions with Mr. Harper so far, he asks good questions to guide the session so we can both better understand myself. He is supportive and intuitive. So far I think he can help make a difference in my life.

I.A.·Oct 17, 2020

Overall

Oliver is a great bloke and a very kind listener. Very thoughtful about what it is you share, genuine when it comes to tips or advice, and checks up on you every now and then like a nice friend would. He was my first counsellor and left a good impression for me! Thank you very much!

Z...·Sep 26, 2020

Overall

I came to Oliver mainly for relationship issues which after a session, uncovered some deeper, personal issues. However, I saw improvements instantly and after every session. Oliver has been a great help in and out of sessions. Thank you!

E.L.·Sep 10, 2020

Overall

I feel as though Oliver is a good at what he does. He has a unique way of communicating and can blend in the necessary questions along with being a down to earth person. It is important to me that a counsellor can maybe not relate but just go back to a basic thing of just simply talking about the weather or the simple things in life. One constructive criticism I could say is that sometimes using the larger terms or technical clinical words and maybe a little more laymen terms to help those who maybe not be educated on certain terms or language structure. Other then that I think he does a great job ! I feel encouraged to communicate with him! It has been a good experience.

K.A.·Sep 02, 2020

Overall

I have only had two sessions with my therapist so far but my first impression is that he is a very calming, jolly person that is very understanding and professional. He is very reassuring and has been able to put words on things i haven't and has already explained a lot of things that feel helpful. I feel very hopeful and when i finish a session i feel very light and relieved

This was my first time trying out counseling as an adult and going through the process online adds another layer to the newness of the experience. Oliver helped me a lot, he was patient and gave me space to explain and describe what I was going through with such ease. With lots of compassion, Oliver provided me with behavioural techniques and some new perspective on how to approach my issues, which helps a lot! I had a pleasant experience with Oliver, he's really helpful and totally recommended!

S.A.·Aug 05, 2020

Overall

Oliver has helped me a lot, always responds in a timely and compassionate manner, and he even messages me first, when I haven't been in contact for awhile. I would highly recommend his counselling services.
