HEAL A LITTLE EVERY DAY.




DR. CORRINE HARRIS

PhD, LCMHC, NCC

HEY Y’ALL! MY NAME IS DR. CORRINE HARRIS AND I AM A CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH
COUNSELOR LICENSED IN NORTH CAROLINA AND GEORGIA.

I have over 10 years of experience in the mental health field in a variety of
settings including doctors’ offices, education settings, and private practice
agencies. I am passionate about creating a safe space for clients to be their
full selves as they work towards healing and wholeness and believe it is an
honor to be part of your healing and mental health journey. I also consider it a
privilege to be able to work with people of color, particularly Black women like
myself, who deserve so much more love, grace, and compassion then we are given
in the world. I believe that you are worthy of self-compassion and
self-acceptance.

In my work with clients, I am mainly a client centered counselor who believes
that the relationship between therapist and client is a powerful tool for growth
and healing. I enjoy getting to know my clients and helping them feel
comfortable in our work together so that they can have the vulnerability and
trust to do the hard work of growing.

I consider myself a mirror in that I hold up a reflection of what the client is
bringing into our work, consciously or unconsciously, as well as a partner on
the therapeutic journey. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and work
to infuse spirituality and faith into the therapeutic practice for clients who
are interested.

I am a born and bred Southerner by way of Alabama (Roll Tide!) and Georgia. I
love traveling (internationally whenever possible!), reading fiction books,
watching Disney movies, listening to R&B music (old school and new school), and
spending time with family and friends in my free time. My current self-care
activities include riding in silence after work, connecting with loved ones,
exercising, prayer, and doing guided meditations and breathing exercises.




ABOUT

Harris Counseling Services PLLC is a virtual counseling practice for people want
support navigating different areas of their lives and balancing multiple
responsibilities. We provide a safe, non-judgmental space for people to simply
be, learn more about themselves, and work to reach healing, balance, and
wholeness.

Our mission is to support the mental health of people through therapy and
empower them to reach their goals and live full, intentional lives in community
with others. It is an honor for us to be a part of your mental health journey.
Life is hard, but you don’t have to walk through it alone.

We have a special interest and passion for supporting Black women who who desire
to be seen, valued, and welcomed into the therapy space. We know that our
humanity as black women is often missed or overlooked. We carry the dreams and
needs of others in addition to our own. We are burdened with ideals of
perfection while living as flawed individuals. As therapists, we recognize that
Black women are rarely given the opportunity to be imperfect while growing and
therefore work to provide a safe space for their growth and healing.

We work with clients to set goals that help them develop understanding, create
skill sets to manage unhelpful thinking patterns, and create spaces for joy and
connectedness. The practice is a good fit for client that are looking to work on
topics such as:

TRANSITIONS

BALANCING MULTIPLE ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

RELATIONSHIP ISSUES

INTEGRATION OF FAITH INTO THERAPY

STRESS

SELF-EXPLORATION

GRIEF AND LOSS


SERVICES

For therapy services, we can only accept insurance for clients located in North
Carolina, with some exceptions for Blue Cross Blue Shield of different states.

Pricing & Insurance

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

We offer individual therapy sessions that help clients explore the various
issues they may be having and learn new coping skills and behaviors that help
them improve their functioning and wellbeing. Therapy is tailored towards the
unique needs of each client and can help clients who are dealing with various
mental health concerns or life stressors that are making it difficult for them
to function.

COACHING

We offer coaching sessions that help individuals clarify their goals and gives
them the support needed to push past barriers and reach their goals. Coaching is
a great option for clients who are wanting to have a better understanding of
themselves, improve their clarity of their professional and personal goals, or
who live in different states and may not clarify to receive mental health
services from HCS.

CLINICAL SUPERVISION

We offer individual supervision for licensed clinical mental health counselor
associates who are working towards full licensure. Please reach out with any
questions you have about the supervision process.


FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS THERAPY?

Therapy, aka as counseling, is the process of meeting with a trained
professional to work to understand problems and come up with plans to fix your
mental and emotional health. There are multiple approaches to therapy, but
what’s most important in my opinion is finding a therapist that you trust and
feel comfortable with.

HOW DO I KNOW IF I NEED TO SEE A THERAPIST?

Anyone can come to therapy at any time. I like to say that there are no problems
too small or too big for therapy. However, good indicators that it could be time
to go to therapy would be noticing changes in sleep or appetite as well as
changes in mood or behavior such as increased irritability, anxiety, sadness,
guilt or worthlessness. Family and friends can be great supports, but another
sign that it could be time to consider therapy would be if talking to your
support system isn’t helping or you begin to need more support than your support
system can provide. Another good reason to come to therapy is that it is a safe,
confidential, and nonjudgmental environment where you can be honest and focus on
what is best for you without outside biases.

WHAT HAPPENS IN THERAPY?

In therapy we meet and discuss your thoughts, feelings, and experiences and how
they are impacting you. There is no couch you lay down on; instead, we work to
create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable exploring
your feelings, learning about yourself and how you are in the world, and growing
towards your goals. The therapeutic process typically includes talking,
reflecting on feelings and past experiences, learning coping skills, and
activities and homework that help you process what you’ve learned in session.

CAN I USE MY INSURANCE TO PAY FOR SESSIONS?

In many cases, yes. We accept a variety of insurance plans in North Carolina as
well as some Blue Cross Blue Shield plans from other states. You will need to
check with your insurance company to see what your benefits are and if you have
a deductible and/or co-pay that will be required. We use Headway for our
insurance billing and you can check your benefits on their website at
https://headway.co/does-my-insurance-cover-therapy. You can also use HSA and FSA
funds to pay for therapy.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN MY FIRST SESSION?

The first session is called the intake session. In the intake session I will ask
you questions in a variety of areas such as current symptoms, mental health
history, and family relationships, to gain an overall sense of who you are and
what you are currently dealing with. We also talk about what you want your goals
for therapy to be.

CAN ONLINE THERAPY BE JUST AS EFFECTIVE AS TRADITIONAL, IN-PERSON THERAPY?

Yes, online therapy is typically very similar to in-person therapy; however,
there are some conditions such as substance abuse and eating disorders that may
benefit from in-person treatment. 

WHAT TECHNICAL EQUIPMENT DO I NEED FOR ONLINE THERAPY?

All that is needed is access to private technology that teletherapy can take
place on (phone, tablet, laptop, etc.) as well as a private and secure space in
which you can attend therapy sessions.

HOW OFTEN WILL I MEET WITH MY THERAPIST?

The frequency of sessions also varies from client to client but it is important
to have a frequency that helps you build and then sustain momentum when working
towards your goals. I typically recommend that clients start off weekly and then
increase the time between sessions as progress is made.

NOTHING IS REALLY WRONG, SO DO I STILL NEED TO GO TO THERAPY?

While you don’t have to go to therapy, there’s nothing wrong with giving therapy
a chance and seeing what you learn about yourself in the process. Something
doesn’t have to be wrong to come to therapy and it’s actually good to start in
therapy when you first start to notice changes versus when you’re really
struggling or in a crisis. 

CAN I USE MY INSURANCE TO PAY FOR SESSIONS?

In many cases, yes. We accept a variety of insurance plans in North Carolina as
well as some Blue Cross Blue Shield plans from other states. You will need to
check with your insurance company to see what your benefits are and if you have
a deductible and/or co-pay that will be required. We use Headway for our

history, and family relationships, to gain an overall sense of who you are and
what you are currently dealing with. We also talk about what you want your goals
for therapy to be.

CAN YOU PRESCRIBE MEDICATION?

I cannot prescribe medication, but I can help you talk to your primary care
doctor or psychiatrist about your needs and work to find a medication regime
that is helpful for your symptoms.

DO YOU OFFER EVENING AND WEEKEND APPOINTMENTS?

No. At this time we see clients from 11-6, Monday-Thursday.

HOW LONG ARE APPOINTMENTS?

Appointments are typically about 50 minutes.

WILL ANYONE KNOW THAT I’M SEEING A THERAPIST?

No. Your attendance and everything you say in therapy is confidential and cannot
be shared without your permission, with a few exceptions in extreme
circumstances.
