The intake process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability.
Practical approaches for online care and ADHD-related concerns
Dr. Harris uses straightforward, evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and building effective routines. Cognitive approaches involve identifying and testing thoughts that make stress and anxiety worse, then practicing more balanced thinking in daily life. Behavioral strategies focus on small, concrete steps to change habits, improve sleep, and manage distractibility often associated with ADHD.He pairs these methods with problem-solving work to tackle relationship strain, grief, or work stress. Deciding which approach to try is a collaborative process; the therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps. This shared process helps shape a plan that fits the person's life and priorities.
Online therapy gives flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-based skill work, phone sessions can fit shorter check-ins or days with limited bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging suit quick reflections, check-ins, or homework prompts. These options let people access consistent care without traveling, and they can switch formats as needs change.
