Notice Regarding Waitlist

Due to an exceptionally high demand for services, our current waitlists are longer than usual. As a training clinic, we have limited capacity to take on new cases. While we aim to see patients in the order they join the waitlist, patient assignments are also based on matching needs with therapist and supervisor expertise and availability. This process may result in some patients waiting longer than others, and waitlist times can vary widely, from a few weeks to a year or more in some cases. We appreciate your understanding as we balance providing quality care with the educational goals of our training program. If you need immediate assistance or alternative resources, please consider reaching out to other local providers for support during this time.

Important Information About Our Services
While we strive to offer accessible and effective care to as many patients as possible, our clinic may not be suitable for everyone seeking services. Some therapy needs may fall outside our scope of practice or may not align with our training model, which focuses on time-limited, skills-based mental health services. Similarly, certain assessments may exceed our clinic’s capabilities. If we determine that our clinic appears to be an appropriate fit for your needs, you will be added to the waitlist and notified when an opening becomes available. If we find that our clinic is not a suitable option for your care, we will provide referrals to appropriate community resources. Relatedly, if your needs or our clinic’s capacity change while you are on the waitlist and we can no longer meet your needs within our training clinic’s scope, we will make every effort to connect you with alternative providers as soon as possible.

The Harris Center offers psychotherapy for adults, children, and adolescents. These services are offered on a sliding-fee scale based on household size and yearly income, and ranges from $10 to $50 per session. Patients' fees are set during their initial intake.

Therapy at the Harris Center is typically problem-focused and short-term (usually around 16 weekly sessions). Early sessions are dedicated to goal setting; then, your therapist will teach you skills to better manage your emotions/symptoms. We will also track your progress using weekly questionnaires. You can expect to have "therapy homework" each week to practice your new skills where you need them most - in your life.
