About Savannah

Savannah Harness is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, ADHD, and a wide range of related issues.

Background and approach

She brings seven years of clinical experience and a flexible, person-centered attitude to sessions, helping clients explore patterns around intimacy, communication, self-esteem, career decisions, and emotion regulation. Her practice also addresses specialized concerns such as attachment and abandonment, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, body image, and co-occurring conditions.

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods with a collaborative, strengths-focused stance. Savannah uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thinking, DBT skills to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and attachment-based principles to repair relational patterns.

She emphasizes practical skill building and reflective exploration so clients can pursue changes that matter to them. Savannah is licensed in Missouri as an LPC and accepts international clients; she offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging and adapts her style to fit each person’s goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Savannah commonly integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based therapy into online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to build practical coping strategies. Attachment-based work explores patterns in relationships and how early connection shapes current interactions, which can help people improve communication, intimacy, and trust.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Savannah works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and needs, then tailors methods over time so therapy feels useful and relevant. She draws from multiple modalities and adapts interventions based on what the client and therapist discover together.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provides flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access regular support, practice skills between meetings, and maintain continuity of care when life is busy or circumstances change. Licensed professionals can help clients determine which session type and therapeutic combination will best support their progress.
