About Je'riel

Je'riel Harvey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana who uses practical, evidence-based therapies to help people manage emotions and move forward. He focuses on clear steps clients can try in daily life. Sessions aim to build self-understanding, reduce distress, and create workable routines for healing and growth.

Harvey draws on 11 years of clinical experience to address depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and mood-related challenges. He also works with concerns such as addiction, ADHD, anger, and low self-esteem.

Background and approach

Additional areas he supports include codependency, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and questions about life purpose and self-love. His practice blends several therapies so conversations stay practical and goal-oriented. Je'riel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

He incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and increase psychological flexibility. When clients struggle with intense emotions or self-destructive patterns he brings in skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and motivational strategies to strengthen commitment to change. Sessions typically focus on small, manageable steps rather than abstract ideas.

People who work with him can expect straightforward talk about habits, feelings, and next steps. The goal is to leave sessions with something to try between meetings. Je'riel aims to support steady progress through regular, practical work rather than quick fixes.

Therapeutic approaches and online flexibility

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so that day-to-day life becomes more manageable and less distressing. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and mood challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to concerns, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients and the therapist work together to pick methods that match goals, comfort level, and practical needs rather than assuming one way fits everyone.

Online therapy offers flexible options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to keep momentum between meetings. Using these remote formats, licensed professionals can teach coping skills, work on behavioral experiments, and support steps toward change while accommodating different communication preferences and life demands.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
