Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
About Me
I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice as a therapist for over twenty years. Prior to joining BetterHelp, I served in the U. S. Military as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Commissioned Officer. After retiring from the military, I began my second career with the Department of Veteran’s Affairs as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.
My practice areas include working with clients experiencing a broad range of Mental Health issues, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship/marital and family problems, work-related stress, and interest in improving self-esteem, health and lifestyle, and quality of life issues.
My approach to online counseling is grounded in the belief that we are each trying to do our best (given our genetics, family training, and current circumstances). However, we tend to get stuck in certain emotional patterns, thought patterns, and behavioral patterns. In order to help with this “stuckness,” I utilize a combination of evidence-based treatments including, Humanistic and CognitiveTherapies. All of this occurs within a safe online counseling environment creating a trusting relationship that we will build over time.
Please know that I am committed to giving you quality care and protecting your privacy and I will do my best to help you achieve the goals that you came to BetterHelp to resolve. My previous clients found their online counseling sessions to be very helpful in addressing whatever presenting issues that they have chosen to discuss in counseling.
I look forward to meeting with you!

Keith Harris is a licensed clinical social worker in Michigan with thirty years of experience in therapeutic practice. He served in the U.S. Military as a licensed clinical social worker and as a commissioned officer, and following his military retirement he began a second career with the Department of Veterans Affairs working as a licensed clinical social worker before later joining an online counseling service.
His clinical work addresses a broad range of mental health concerns, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship and marital difficulties, family problems, work-related stress, self-esteem matters, and other quality-of-life and lifestyle issues.
Keith’s approach to online counseling is based on the belief that people generally do their best given their genetics, family training, and current circumstances, yet they can become stuck in certain emotional, cognitive, and behavioral patterns. To help clients move past that stuckness he draws on evidence-based methods, blending humanistic perspectives with cognitive therapies to create practical change within an online therapeutic setting.
He is committed to delivering high-quality care and protecting clients’ privacy while working collaboratively to achieve the goals that brought them to therapy. His prior clients have found online sessions helpful for addressing their presenting concerns, and he welcomes the opportunity to work with new clients.
Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions – online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One significant advantage is flexibility. People can connect with their therapist in the way that feels most comfortable, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
Each therapist is a licensed professional, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they prefer a different fit. Online therapy can provide accessible support for everyday mental health concerns while offering practical ways to engage in consistent care.
