LPC, 32 years of experience
My name is Dr. Dadron Deon Harris, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for helping individuals find healing, balance, and renewed strength. With years of experience in both mental health and pastoral counseling, I specialize in supporting clients who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and emotional challenges. My approach is compassionate, practical, and tailored to each individual. I often integrate evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with holistic strategies that address the emotional, mental, and physical and spiritual dimensions of well-being. My goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you can process life’s challenges, gain new tools for growth, and move toward lasting transformation. Whether you are seeking support for personal struggles, relational issues, or simply desire a healthier mindset, I am committed to walking alongside you with empathy, wisdom, and encouragement.
In our first session together, my priority is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard and supported. We’ll spend time getting to know one another, talking through your reasons for seeking therapy, and discussing your personal goals for counseling. I’ll ask questions about your background, current challenges, and what you hope to achieve, but there’s no pressure—we move at your pace. This session is about building trust, clarifying your needs, and beginning to shape a plan that fits you. You can expect me to listen without judgment, provide gentle guidance, and begin offering practical tools that you can apply in everyday life. By the end of our first meeting, you’ll have a better sense of what therapy with me looks like and how we’ll work together to help you move toward healing, growth, and wholeness.
What sets me apart as a therapist is my ability to bridge clinical expertise with compassionate care. I combine evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused strategies, and strength-based approaches with a deep understanding of the emotional and spiritual needs of my clients.
My ideal client is someone who is ready to take the next step toward healing and growth. They may be experiencing challenges such as anxiety, depression, past trauma, life transitions, relationship struggles, or overwhelming stress, and they are seeking a safe, supportive space to process those experiences. They are open to learning new tools, exploring their thoughts and emotions, and working collaboratively to create positive change. Many of my clients desire not only emotional stability but also a sense of purpose, peace, and wholeness in their lives. I especially enjoy working with individuals who feel “stuck” or disconnected and are looking to bridge the gap between mental health and spiritual well-being. My ideal client values authenticity, is willing to be challenged in a compassionate way, and is committed to walking a journey of transformation that touches the mind, emotions, and spirit.
As a licensed professional counselor, I have extensive experience utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and transform unhealthy thought patterns that contribute to emotional distress, anxiety, and depression. CBT has been a powerful tool in my practice because it provides clients with practical strategies to challenge negative beliefs, reframe destructive thinking, and replace them with healthier, more life-giving perspectives.
