About Susan
Dr. Susan Harris is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years of experience in addiction and mental health work. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem concerns. Her practice also addresses addictions, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, and relationship and communication struggles.
She blends practical skill teaching with a person-centered style. Sessions focus on what a person needs now, whether that means learning coping skills, managing cravings, or talking through a recent loss. She aims to help people build better day-to-day routines and healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
Her background includes long experience in addiction services alongside broader mental health care. That experience shaped a view that emotional and behavioral concerns are connected, and are best addressed together. She uses straightforward, goal-oriented methods rather than long theoretical talks.
Approaches used include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing. These are applied in concrete ways, like identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing emotion-regulation skills, and building motivation for change.
Dr. Harris practices in Arizona and works in English. People looking for support with self-esteem, process addictions, social anxiety, or caregiver stress will find an emphasis on skill-building and practical steps to improve everyday life.
