Intro
Hello there! My name is Pamela Harris and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the lovely state of Virginia. I am passionate about advocacy, and instilling self-advocacy in others. As a clinician, I believe in creating safe, supportive spaces where you feel heard, seen, and validated. I believe in collaboration and partnership, and I will metaphorically hold your hand as we navigate challenges and build greater well-being together.
I have worked with neurodivergent clients in both school and clinical mental settings as a school counselor and family counselor. I am also the proud mother of two autistic children, and I love the idea of contributing to a safe space for them as they grow older. I believe that everyone's journey is unique, just as everyone has their own strengths and abilities. I love helping my clients tap into their talents and perspectives.
I've always integrated strengths-based approaches in my work with clients. We belong in so many spaces in which we don't feel valued; thus, validating feelings and perspectives is a key component in my sessions. I always want to show my clients that yes, they do belong in every room.
