Getting to know Dr. Sean Harris

Welcome to DBT Pathways! I’m Dr. Sean Harris, and I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for children, teens, transitional age youth (TAY), and families. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can build resilience, manage distress, and improve emotional well-being. Whether you're facing anxiety, mood disorders, or navigating complex family dynamics, I provide personalized individual therapy, family therapy, and parent coaching. Together, we’ll develop essential skills to regulate emotions, strengthen relationships, and tackle life’s challenges with confidence. I’m here to guide you with compassion every step of the way.

What should a new client know about working with you?

As a new client, you can expect a warm and supportive environment where your unique needs are prioritized. My therapy style emphasizes collaboration, focusing on practical skills to help you navigate emotional challenges effectively. I aim to empower you with tools to build resilience and strengthen relationships, ensuring that you feel understood and supported throughout our journey together. Open communication is key, and I encourage you to share your thoughts and questions as we work toward your goals.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My typical process involves helping you build resilience by understanding your emotions and learning practical tools to manage them effectively. Each session focuses on exploring your experiences and applying DBT skills, such as mindfulness and emotion regulation. We work on generalizing these skills to real-life situations, ensuring you can navigate challenges outside of therapy. This collaborative approach fosters a deeper understanding of your emotions and promotes lasting change, empowering you to integrate what you've learned into your daily life.
