Graham Harriman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of experience. He combines mindfulness and mind-body awareness with a person-centered, existential outlook. He often focuses on how people relate to themselves and to others while addressing stressors like addiction, depression, anxiety, and self esteem.
He brings a varied career background to therapy, including clinical work, program management, and public health planning. That experience includes work with people affected by HIV and community services planning. He also coauthored a book titled The Healing Power of Community: Mutual Aid, AIDS, and Social Transformation in Psychology.
In sessions he leans on practical, client-centered techniques and practices drawn from dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing. He uses mindfulness to help people notice what’s happening in the body and mind and to respond rather than react. He treats intimate and sexual concerns, substance use and harm reduction, grief, and other mood and relationship issues.
Graham describes his work as nonreligious but spiritually aware, and he pays attention to multicultural and social factors such as racism and white privilege when relevant. He also has training in couples therapy, group work, and sexuality, including LGBTQ concerns.
He sees clients in Oregon and works in English. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and the cost varies by location and therapist availability.

Approaches that inform online work
Graham uses client-centered therapy and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) as part of his work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and helping people develop clearer self-understanding; it can help with self esteem, relationship questions, and life direction. DBT offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication, which is useful for anxiety, mood swings, anger, and impulse-related concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Graham will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means checking in about what’s working, adjusting techniques, and making changes together as needs evolve.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for different types of check-ins such as shorter sessions or audio-only meetings when video is not preferred. Talk with the therapist during intake to match session length and style to your daily routine and goals.
