About Harriet
Harriet Mccune is an LPC based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family conflict, grief, and money and financial issues. She speaks English and brings 19 years of experience working in community and grant-funded settings. Harriet aims to offer a calm, hopeful presence and a chance to talk through what feels overwhelming right now.
She uses straightforward, practical conversation to help people notice patterns and try small changes. Harriet draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen without judgment and to follow each person’s priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors, and Solution-Focused and Motivational Interviewing techniques to set realistic goals and build motivation.
Her background includes a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Houston, Central Campus, and a master’s in counseling from the University of Houston-Clear Lake. Much of her early clinical work was as a psychiatric technician and as a school counselor, then in grant-funded agencies serving victims of crime.
In sessions she often begins by gathering a person’s history, understanding the current problem, and clarifying values and priorities. She teaches practical skills for anger management, stress reduction, and coping with life changes, expecting growth to come through practice over weeks rather than instantly.
People who prefer an upbeat, patient listener may find her style a fit. Harriet aims to help clients build better responses to difficult feelings, increase daily functioning, and move toward a fuller, more engaged life.
How her methods translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. Online sessions can use that same gentle, person-led style while helping clients name their priorities and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change those patterns; that work adapts well to remote sessions where homework and brief exercises are assigned between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus, which can be practiced in short daily moments and reviewed in session.Choosing the right approach is part of the collaboration. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, daily life, and what feels most helpful. That means trying options, adjusting techniques, and checking in about progress as therapy continues.
Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm which online options are currently offered before booking. Many people find online appointments useful because they can fit a session into a workday break, reduce travel time, or use a phone call when bandwidth is limited. Online work also makes it easier to keep consistent weekly check-ins and to use short follow-up conversations for homework review and goal tracking.
