About Donovan
Donovan Harmon is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Louisiana with 16 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, ADHD, and challenges at work and in family life. He also helps with grief, parenting concerns, and coping with major life changes.
Donovan frames sessions around the idea that clients know their own story best. He asks focused questions and listens for strengths clients can use. He keeps the conversation practical, helping people spot patterns that lead to outbursts or prolonged frustration and then try different responses.
His practice draws on client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in the room. He uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. He also applies solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and track small changes.
Donovan has worked across settings with children, adolescents, and adults, so he’s familiar with developmental differences and family dynamics. He often combines brief skill-building with check-ins about progress between sessions. That makes it easier to notice what helps and what needs adjusting.
People who come for help with anger, for example, can expect clear discussion about triggers and practical steps to respond differently. Sessions also address related issues like guilt, impulsivity, and communication problems. Donovan encourages straightforward planning and small experiments to reduce reactive patterns.
How Donovan uses client-centered, CBT, and solution-focused work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person. The therapist reflects concerns, clarifies goals, and helps people use their own strengths to try new responses. This approach is useful when someone needs a space to talk through anger and figure out what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps identify automatic thoughts that escalate anger and provides practical experiments to test different reactions. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and anger management tasks.
Solution-Focused Therapy aims for short-term, achievable changes. The therapist helps set small goals and track progress so people can see what works quickly. This approach suits someone who wants steps they can try between sessions and measure over weeks.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. Donovan will work with the client to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will try tools, review what helps, and adjust the plan as they go.
