About Harriet

Harriet Frank offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or worries about relationships and eating. She introduces herself simply and listens first, helping clients name what feels hard and work through it at a manageable pace. Harriet is based in the United Kingdom and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Her approach is person-centred, which means she follows the person rather than imposing a fixed agenda.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what matters most now - whether that is coping with panic, sorting out body image worries, or handling relationship stress. Harriet also pays attention to issues connected to attachment, isolation, guilt, and young adult transitions. Clients will find practical conversation rather than medical labels.

She helps people talk through difficult feelings, recognise unhelpful patterns, and build small changes that feel doable. For those living with chronic pain, ongoing illness, or caregiver strain she aims to understand how these pressures affect day-to-day life. Harriet has three years of experience working with emotional and relational concerns.

She offers therapy by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging so people can choose what fits their routine. Sessions are arranged using a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, someone completes a short matching questionnaire and books a time that suits them.

Harriet then works collaboratively to set goals and pace the work so it feels safe and steady.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Harriet uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on the person and their immediate needs. Person-centred work means the conversation is guided by the client's concerns, helping them feel heard and gradually clearer about what matters. This approach is useful for depression, low self-esteem and relationship questions.

She also draws on practical, problem-focused methods to help people manage anxiety and stress. These techniques break worries into smaller parts and teach simple ways to cope with panic, rumination or social anxiety. For body image or eating concerns the work often combines compassionate listening with small behavioural steps to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Harriet will discuss options and tailor the work to the client's goals, pace and preferences, so decisions are made together rather than imposed.

Online therapy offers practical benefits. Video calls let people see and hear one another and work closely on feelings. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn't wanted. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, written reflection and people who prefer to express themselves in writing. These choices make it easier to fit therapy around work, study or caring responsibilities, and to keep contact consistent when life is busy.
