Harriette has been so genuine and in tuned to my needs. She’s done a great job at circling back around at times to things in my life I don’t necessarily want to bring up but need to. But she never is persistent and allows me to share what I want rather than making me share. I really appreciate letting me open up on my own time. I’ve now have been speaking with her for several months and look forward to continuing.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes even the strongest people among us need a little help to work through some of life ‘s most challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. My focal point is providing a safe, supportive, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space for adults, couples, and families to share their experiences and to help navigate through some of the most difficult life changes [positive or negative]; to create more balance in your life. I enjoy working with individuals who are motivated to make changes to improve their lives, find purpose, and meaningful fulfillment. I would love the opportunity to help you create a personalized treatment plan that will be supported from evidence-based methodologies that will allow you to work with and through your current experiences.
I received a master’s in professional counseling in 2012 from Grand Canyon University. I have more than nearly 20 years of experience in the helping professions. I have had the pleasure of working with a range of people experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, family conflict, and symptoms of severe, persistent mental illness (SPMI). Over the past 7 years I have worked in mental rehabilitation centers as well as intensive outpatient programs. I believe in fostering the skills needed for effective coping mechanisms for overall wellness. I have ongoing collaborative initiatives with psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, primary care, social service agencies.
Deciding to engage in therapy can be overwhelming. Finding a therapist whose personality and style is a quintessential component in the therapeutic alliance. I view the member/client as the expert in their life experiences with unique values and needs. I look forward to helping those to effectively pursue their values and explore what keeps them from being the best version of themselves.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Harriette is caring, thoughtful, engaging, and motivates me to reach a level of vulnerability and introspection I didn’t think was possible.
Harriette Wade is above all kind, patient, and an incredible listener. She gave me a space that was so necessary for things that were just too much for me to handle alone. I feel equipped now but am grateful for her and for BetterHelp for providing this wonderful, flexible service. Thank you
Harriette has done wonders! She helps me work things out and also holds me accountable for things that I might be too close to see. I’m working with her I have had the courage to face many challenges that could otherwise be detrimental. She nudges me in the right direction without pushing me outside of my comfort zone. 10 out of 10 recommend

I appreciate your understanding presence and your questions that reassure me you are listening to me and that you want to learn more in order to help me.
Harriette is an amazing therapist to work with and reaches out just to check on me throughout the week and often provides feedback on journal entries.
Harriette is wonderful. For the first time in all my experience with therapy, I feel like I am being listened to and like I am being helped. And I am extremely grateful.
She is amazing!

It was first session and she was awesome. Looking forward to my next visit when I introduce my husband. Can’t wait to get some feedback on uncertain situations
So far I’ve had one appointment with her and I really enjoy talking to her. She listens to me and gives me quick and thorough responses. I look forward to my next chat with her!

She is amazing
I've referred three people, two of which have signed up for Betterhelp now. We love this platform!
Harriette has become an essential person in my life. I truly believe she remembers everything I tell her and cares deeply about my mental health and well-being. My life has improved knowing I have her to talk to.
Harriette has an amazing energy. She has made me feel extremely comfortable and safe. First sessions for me are usually not the most comfortable and Harriette flipped that right on its head. Making me feel som comfortable to open up and be vulnerable right off the bat. Im grateful I got matched with someone who really listened to my specific situation and who immediately responded acknowledging my situation and working together to find a way forward.
Harriette Wade created a safe space for me to feel comfortable to open up and talk about what I've been through. I trust her expertise and am looking forward to many more sessions with her.
Harriette Is very knowledgeable, professional, patient and kind. She understands me and helps me to understand myself. She keeps track and helps me to reach my goals. I am very appreciative of her time and expertise.
Harriette is a kind and understanding therapist who provides salient advice and thoughtful questions. As a trans person, it can sometimes be scary to talk to new people; however, Harriette created a safe and open environment free of judgement. Highly recommend.
Ms. Wade was very professional, knowledgeable and attention to details were superb. Ms. Wade understood my situation and provided me with the tools to help me grow in this process. Ms. Wade was the perfect match. Thank you, Simone
She has great energy and she’s fun to talk to
Harriette has been the light through some dark woods. I have been through a couple other therapist before I found her. I felt like a number or just another appointment for previous therapist the experience was not genuine and it seemed very textbook like. Harriette's unique approach on therapy is genuine and truly personalized per person. She listens to understand and not to reply. She has given me hope that times when I haven't felt there was none for me. I would recommend her and her approach on mental health. With 20 years of wisdom in this industry should somebody grateful to have on your side. Definitely has given me hope!
I knew within minutes of our first meeting Harriette was the perfect match for me. She lets me speak and guides me in finding my own answers. Her warmth and empathy are felt even via video calls. I appreciate the tools Harriette gives me so I can continue the work between our scheduled sessions. I am so grateful for Harriette and look forward to working with her more!
Harriette is kind and understanding. She makes you feel heard and feel comfortable. She gave me feedback and things to work on. I appreciate the knowledge she shared. Thank you Harriette for listening and for the help on my journey to be the best version of myself!
Harriette is truly a godsend to my life. I was so nervous to start therapy for years and once my life hit rock bottom, betterhelp was my only solution. Being paired w Harriette has given me tools and someone to talk to, to become the woman I want to be. Cannot wait to see where we are at in 6 months. Thank you H! A GEM!
I am a first time member of any type of adult counseling/therapy program and I didn't know what to expect. I booked a session with Harriette and I felt I had a better understanding of the program. It felt good to vocalize my inner feelings and accept my current being.
Harriette has been wonderful. She says a lot of realistic things and even though theyre things I kind of had an idea on, she helps me connect the dots. Shes given me ideas and advice on how to be better for myself. I have enjoyed every session with her.
Harriette displays excellent listening skills and is extremely personable. In addition, she is very knowledgeable and her experience is evident from the word go. She listens and tailors her advice and knowledge to your situation in a very perceptive and kind way. She doesn’t recite a textbook to you, she uses her knowledge to communicate with you in a very non-judgmental manner and her understanding of my unique and non-conventional lifestyle is very helpful.
