Steven Harris

Steven Harris is a licensed clinical social worker with 34 years of professional experience. He helps people facing relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, depression, anxiety, and addiction. He approaches each person with respect and a focus on their strengths.

He believes clients are the experts on their own stories and builds sessions around what matters most to them. Conversations are practical and grounded. He helps people break worries into manageable steps and find ways to handle daily stressors.

Steven uses methods drawn from Trauma-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy among other approaches. In practice he listens first, then offers strategies that match a person’s goals. Sessions balance emotional support with concrete tools for coping.

Over three decades of work have included a wide range of concerns such as grief, eating and sleeping issues, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and mood disorders. He also addresses caregiver strain, chronic illness impacts, end-of-life stress, and veteran-related issues when relevant to a person’s story.

Steven holds a Master of Social Work and is credentialed as an LMSW and LCSW in Michigan and Florida. He works in English and practices from Florida. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to therapist availability.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process and reduce the hold of past traumatic events by working carefully through memories, reactions, and coping patterns. It can help with post-traumatic stress, intense anxiety, and the ongoing effects of abuse.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connections and emotional responses. It can be useful for people who want to improve how they relate to partners, family members, or close others.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It provides clear strategies to change unhelpful thinking and build practical habits for managing mood, anxiety, or stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape goals and the mix of techniques used in sessions.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Ask about which online or in-person arrangements are available. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, shorten travel time, and allow sessions to fit into busy days. It also makes it simpler to continue care during life transitions while keeping the focus on practical steps and emotional support.
