About Donovan

Donovan Harmon is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Louisiana with 16 years of professional experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, anger, depression, ADHD, grief, career issues, parenting concerns, and coping with life changes. He also addresses related areas such as family problems, communication difficulties, impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness.

Donovan approaches therapy from a client-centered perspective. He treats the person in front of him as the expert on their life and builds conversations around their strengths. Sessions focus on practical steps and real-world problems rather than jargon. That often means setting clear goals and checking progress week to week.

He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. For someone dealing with anger or anxiety, this can mean learning concrete ways to respond differently in stressful moments. Solution-focused methods are used to identify what is already working and to expand those small wins into larger change.

Over his career Donovan has worked with people facing trauma, adoption and foster care issues, eating concerns, bipolar mood challenges, and parenting stress. He has supported those managing ADHD, intellectual disability, and social isolation. His work includes helping people recover after loss and navigate relationship breakdowns.

If you want straightforward, practical sessions that center your goals, Donovan offers a blend of talk and skill-building. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Donovan uses client-centered work, CBT, and solution-focused methods to guide online sessions. Client-centered therapy means conversations that focus on your perspective and strengths, helping you make choices that fit your life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches specific skills to respond differently to anger or anxiety. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes that build momentum toward your goals.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the process. Donovan will collaborate with you to decide which methods match your needs and goals. Together you set short-term objectives and check progress so sessions stay practical and relevant to day-to-day life.

If you plan to try online sessions, confirm the session options when you book so you know how meetings are run. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and let people continue care from different locations. Ask about formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so you and Donovan can plan sessions that suit your routine.
