Bethany Harris

My approach is warm, genuine, and active. I work especially well with people who feel emotions intensely, get stuck in painful patterns, or have tried therapy before but still need practical tools for real-life change. I balance acceptance and validation with helping you make meaningful changes.

Together we will identify the patterns that are keeping you stuck, build skills for managing intense emotions and difficult situations, and practice using those skills in your everyday life. We will focus not only on feeling better in the moment, but on building a life that feels more stable, meaningful, and worth living.

My clients would describe me as warm, authentic, validating, and straightforward. I take what you are going through seriously without judging you, and I am not afraid to gently challenge patterns that are no longer working. Therapy with me is collaborative, practical, and focused on helping you move forward.

I specialize in working with people who experience intense emotions, self-harm urges, suicidal thoughts, impulsive behavior, unstable relationships, or patterns that feel hard to change. I also work with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and difficulty regulating emotions.

I became a psychologist because I value helping people make sense of painful experiences while also building practical skills for change. I especially appreciate work that balances compassion with accountability and helps people move toward lives that feel more stable, meaningful, and worth living.

I am a licensed psychologist and founder of Haven Psychology Group. I provide individual therapy and comprehensive DBT, including individual therapy, skills training, and between-session support when appropriate. My style is warm, genuine, collaborative, and active, with a strong emphasis on evidence-based care.
