FAQ

What makes Christine Harris Therapy different?

I work with clients to create a customised therapy approach addressing their problems and helping them achieve their goals.

I am skilled in various types of therapy:

Teletherapy

Jin Shin Jyutsu

I use the ‘Kitchen Sink Approach,’ meaning I use different methods and combinations to find out what works best for each client.

How does teletherapy work?

Send me an email with a little bit about yourself and what you are interested in working on in your life. From there we will find a time to meet on a HIPAA-compliant video or audio call, and I will send you rates based on a sliding scale. Or, fill out the form on my teletherapy page.

Why teleherapy?

There are various reasons for preferring teletherapy. The question should be: Is teletherapy right for you?
Some people simply do not have access to traditional therapy due to location factors, disabilities, busy schedules.
Privacy. Some clients prefer sessions from the comfort of their own home.
Convenience. Clients do not have time to come in for regular sessions, it’s a busy world, and it’s nice to have a little flexibility.
Teletherapy is a service that is especially beneficial to people who may not necessarily be capable of or feel up to going to traditional therapy regularly.

What is your cancellation policy?
