About Maureen Harris

With 12 years of experience working across outpatient and inpatient substance abuse settings, college mental health services, group counseling, life coaching, and care management, she has supported individuals facing addiction, family conflict, emotional distress, and major life transitions.

Her work centers on meeting each person where they are and fostering the client’s autonomy in the therapeutic process. Maureen combines evidence-informed methods to provide both understanding and concrete tools for change. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the client’s goals and perspective central, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns, Motivational Interviewing to build on existing motivation for change, and Solution-Focused Therapy to develop practical steps toward desired outcomes.

Maureen’s background includes direct experience with substance use and the impact of addiction within family systems, along with a broad range of mental health concerns and life adjustments. She aims to support clients in finding relief, building resilience, and clarifying next steps toward greater well-being. Her approach balances empathy and active skill-building so clients can apply new strategies outside of sessions.

Committed to the idea that mental health is as important as physical health, Maureen encourages anyone considering support to recognize the courage it takes to begin. She looks forward to guiding motivated individuals through the process of recovery, growth, and renewed purpose.
