About Graham

Graham Harriman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings 14 years of clinical work to sessions. He combines a person-centered, existential outlook with mindfulness and mind-body awareness to help people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or depressed. Graham emphasizes relationships - how a person relates to themselves and to others - as a way to understand daily struggles.

His background includes roles as a mental health therapist, program manager, and public health director. That mix has given him experience working across community services and with people affected by HIV. He coauthored a book called The Healing Power of Community: Mutual Aid, AIDS, and Social Transformation in Psychology.

Graham uses practical skills drawn from dialectical behavior strategies and motivational interviewing to help people move forward. Sessions often include mindfulness exercises and conversations about values and meaning. He also has training in couples work, group therapy, sexual and intimacy issues, and substance use harm reduction.

People come to him for help with depression, anxiety, addiction concerns, grief, relationship strain, and life transitions. He also supports those navigating identity, multicultural concerns, and midlife questions. Graham aims to create a calm, direct space where people can talk through what matters most to them.

To begin, a brief questionnaire matches clients with a therapist and scheduling follows based on availability. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location and availability.

Therapeutic approaches for online work and everyday life

Graham integrates client-centered therapy and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into his online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and treating the person as the expert on their life, which helps people feel heard and understood. DBT provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving how someone copes with stress and relationships.

He also draws on mindfulness practices that bring attention to the body and present moment. These exercises can reduce reactivity, improve sleep, and make worrying thoughts easier to notice and shift. Together, these approaches are used to explore values, relationships, mood, and practical coping strategies in a collaborative way.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Graham will help figure out which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences rather than prescribing one path. This is done together, with adjustments as progress and challenges emerge.

Confirm the current online session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in can work during a lunch break, and audio-only options can be useful when camera time is difficult. Talk with him about what will best match your routine and needs.
