About Steven

Steven Harris brings 34 years of clinical experience to his work and offers support for a wide range of concerns, including relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, depression, anxiety, stress, addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD.

Background and approach

He also addresses struggles such as eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, bipolar and mood disorders, career transitions, and coping with major life changes. Additional areas of attention include caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, end-of-life and hospice concerns, substance-related issues, and communication and family-of-origin problems.

Harris practices from a strengths-based stance, emphasizing that clients are experts in their own stories and have resources to draw on when facing difficulties. He integrates evidence-informed methods including attachment-based work, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally focused strategies, and mindfulness practices to tailor treatment to each person’s goals.

Licensed as an LMSW and LCSW with credentials in Michigan and Florida, he frames therapy as a collaborative process that begins with a courageous first step and continues with steady support aimed at greater fulfillment and wellbeing.

Integrating Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional bonds and trust; it helps people explore how connection and separation affect their responses in close relationships and supports healthier ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a practical way by identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing new coping skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle self-observation, which can reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation for issues like anger, grief, and chronic stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to clarify goals, try reasonable interventions, and adjust methods based on what proves helpful, so treatment reflects individual needs and preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain continuity when in-person meetings are impractical. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations and allow for varied formats depending on a client’s comfort and practical constraints.
