About Harriette
Harriette Wade is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) who helps people address relationship struggles, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, and stress. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, addiction, ADHD, mood disorders, and concerns related to adoption and foster care. Her tone is practical and direct, aimed at adults seeking real change and clearer direction.
Harriette focuses on making therapy straightforward. She works with clients to set clear goals and build skills they can use between sessions. Conversations are collaborative and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on improving daily functioning and coping during life changes.
Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic ideas, and trauma-focused strategies. That means she pays attention to current patterns of thinking and behavior, looks at how past experiences shape present challenges, and uses focused methods for processing trauma when needed. These approaches guide how she shapes each plan.
Harriette has twelve years of clinical experience as an LPC in Louisiana. She has worked in mental rehabilitation settings and intensive outpatient programs, and she coordinates care with psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, primary care providers, and social service agencies when that collaboration can help a client.
She invites people who are motivated to change to complete a brief questionnaire to begin a match. The first steps are practical: select Start Therapy, answer the short matching questions, and schedule a session based on the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How Harriette’s Approaches Work Online
Harriette uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT often focuses on specific problems and teaches practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, and stress.She also draws on Psychodynamic Therapy to look at how past relationships and experiences shape present reactions. This approach helps uncover recurring patterns in relationships, intimacy, and self-esteem that get in the way of goals.
Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when traumatic events are a core issue. It involves targeted techniques to reduce the impact of traumatic memories and to improve coping after abuse, loss, or other traumatic experiences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they plan what to try first and adjust as progress is made.
Confirm session formats before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time to appointments. Licensed professionals can also coordinate care with other providers when that helps treatment planning.
