About Peter

Peter Harvey is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 30 years of experience in Michigan. He works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationships, parenting, addiction, grief, and life changes. He also mentions focus areas like communication problems, fatherhood issues, and self-esteem.

He presents himself as a straightforward, experienced counselor who mixes personal perspective with professional skills. Sessions use real conversation rather than clinical distance. He draws on several methods and picks what fits each person and situation.

Peter often uses cognitive behavioral strategies alongside client-centered and existential ideas. He favors practical steps people can try between sessions. He also brings mindfulness and relationship-focused work into conversations about intimacy and communication.

He has worked in private practice and with individuals, couples, and families over his career. That background informs how he approaches problems that involve other people. He emphasizes building a working relationship that supports honest discussion and steady progress.

People contact him for a wide range of concerns including bipolar disorder, ADHD, compassion fatigue, career questions, and issues connected to aging and blended families. He notes experience helping people cope with divorce, codependency, and finding life purpose. He accepts international clients and holds sessions in English.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. It centers the person’s experiences and helps people speak openly about anger, relationships, and life stressors. This approach aims to build a working connection so practical steps feel relevant.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together. It uses short exercises and tools to test unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. That can help with irritability, workplace frustration, and patterns that lead to arguments.

Existential Therapy examines values, meaning, and responsibility. It can help when anger is tied to life changes, questions about purpose, or struggles with identity. Sessions using this approach invite direct talk about the choices someone faces.

Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist works with the client to choose approaches that match goals and preferences. Techniques may be adjusted over time based on what feels useful.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm available formats before booking. Many people find online work easier to fit into everyday life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoiding the need to be on camera when that helps. Licensed professionals often use these practical benefits to keep therapy consistent with daily schedules.
