About Donovan
Donovan Harmon is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Louisiana with 16 years of professional experience. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, family conflict, grief, and career concerns. He also works with issues such as anger, parenting strain, self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, eating problems, and coping with life changes.
He uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. He listens to a person's situation and then helps them notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on small, workable steps that can reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning.
Donovan draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thinking that keep problems going. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s priorities and Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear short-term goals. These approaches are used together to create clear, actionable plans rather than long, abstract conversations.
He has experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in a range of settings over his career. That experience informs practical strategies for issues like school or work stress, family communication, and grief processing. Donovan aims to help people try different responses and see what works in their life.
People who contact him complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session. He practices in Louisiana and conducts sessions in English. The first session is used to clarify goals and choose approaches that fit the person’s situation.
How his approaches translate to online work
Donovan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify thinking patterns that worsen stress or mood problems, then creates step-by-step exercises to try different behaviors. He also practices Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening to the person’s goals and letting those goals guide the work. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set short-term, measurable goals and track small changes over time.Finding the right approach is part of the process. He works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s situation and preferences. Early sessions are used to clarify goals, try an approach, and adjust plans based on what helps most.

Whether sessions are video or another format, the focus is on practical tools and exercises that can be applied between meetings to address stress, anxiety, family concerns, and other issues.
