About Harout
Harout "Harry" Ohannessian is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who focuses on helping people rebuild self-esteem and steady their lives after hard experiences. He writes in a calm, direct way and aims to create space where clients can talk through anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and trauma. Harry is based in California and uses a blend of approaches to match each person's needs.
Harry began practicing psychotherapy in 2014 and brings 11 years of experience to sessions. He often uses psychodynamic ideas to help clients uncover patterns that keep them stuck. That work is paired with practical skills from cognitive and behavioral approaches to manage overwhelming feelings in day-to-day life.
Sessions emphasize empathy and exploration. Conversations look at past experiences that shape current beliefs about self and relationships. The goal is clearer self-understanding and more useful ways of responding to stress and conflict.
Harry also draws on attachment-based perspectives and techniques from dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing. These tools can help with emotion regulation, healthier connections with others, and making changes that feel doable. He works with adults on concerns that include anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship issues, eating concerns, bipolar, and compassion fatigue.
Education includes a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from California State University, Los Angeles. He offers sessions in English, Arabic, and Armenian and does not take international clients.
