Graham Harriman, LPC

Graham Harriman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of experience. He blends mindfulness and body awareness with a person-centered, existential stance to help people facing intimate and life‑stage challenges. He works with concerns such as sexual and intimacy issues, addictions, depression, anxiety, and relationship struggles.

Graham brings a grounded, nonreligious spiritual perspective to sessions. He pays attention to how people relate to themselves and to others. Conversations often include practical tools for managing stress, emotions, and difficult habits alongside reflection about meaning and values.

His background includes training in couples and group work, sex and intimacy concerns, and substance use approaches that emphasize harm reduction. He has experience supporting people with LGBTQ concerns, HIV, and grief related to serious illness or loss. That professional history also includes roles in mental health and public health program leadership.

Graham coauthored a book titled The Healing Power of Community: Mutual Aid, AIDS, and Social Transformation in Psychology, which reflects his interest in community responses to hardship. In the therapy room he aims for clear, down‑to‑earth conversations and practical next steps. Sessions mix listening with skill practice and homework when helpful.

People who seek him out are often looking for a thoughtful, reflective guide. He helps with coping strategies, improving communication, and clarifying life goals. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling details to match your needs.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Graham frequently draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in his work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and helping people clarify their own goals and values; it can be useful for intimacy concerns, self-esteem, and life decisions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, and it can help with anger, anxiety, and relationship patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different techniques. Over the first few sessions he will suggest options and adjust the plan based on what feels helpful.

Confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow more flexible check-ins between commitments. Some approaches include short skills practice, guided mindfulness exercises, and homework that can be reviewed during sessions to reinforce progress.
