Bri Harless
I have a master’s degree in Counseling with a focus on professional counseling and marriage and family therapy. Since 2009 I have worked providing individual, couples, and group counseling. I spent the first half of my career working with individuals and families affected by substance use and the last several years I have worked in a private practice setting helping people with a variety of mental health concerns. While there are very few issues I have not worked with, I have spent a significant amount of time with those working to overcome depression, anxiety, ADHD, substance use disorders, PTSD, stage of life adjustments, and parenting stressors. My experience over the last 11 years has taught me to know my clients first. There are several theoretical approaches to providing counseling, but there is no one size fits all approach. My first goal is to know my clients and what might suit them best. I view my role as a guide, a helper, a teacher. I believe each individual and their autonomy is to be respected. Every tool used in therapy should be something you can use in a way that fits your life. I believe every person has what it takes to overcome the trials they face in life. I know reaching out for help can be uncomfortable for a variety of reasons, but I’m glad you took the step. I have hope we can work together to make it worth your investment. I look forward to getting started.

My practice is grounded in an anti-oppressive and anti-racist framework, ensuring our work honors your unique experiences and perspectives, as you are the expert in your life and story. I believe in the transformative power of informed consent, which means that your voice and choices are central to our journey. With a heart full of compassion and empathy, I support your self-determination and autonomy, helping you uncover the strength and wisdom you already possess. In our time together, fostering and establishing a healing relationship, we’ll create a safe and judgment-free space where you can explore and release thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may no longer serve your highest self. Whether you’re dealing with complex trauma, navigating challenging life circumstances, or simply seeking greater clarity and purpose, my approach blends the power of your story with effective strategies from narrative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy. By working together, you’ll gain tools to reshape your narrative, cultivate healing-centered joy, and build a life that reflects your true values and desires. My experience in criminal defense and jail settings has equipped me with a deep understanding of resilience and the strength required to overcome significant obstacles created and sustained by external influences that lead us to feel powerless and complacent in our life’s trajectory.
