About Donovan
Donovan Harmon, LPC, is licensed in Louisiana and has 16 years of practice experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, anger, career concerns, depression, ADHD, family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, parenting, self esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. He uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide sessions.
Donovan describes clients as the experts in their own stories. He looks for strengths to build on and helps people apply practical steps to manage emotions and daily problems. Sessions involve listening, identifying patterns, and trying small changes to see what helps.
His background includes work with children, adolescents, and adults in a range of settings. That variety informs his approach to common family and developmental concerns. He has experience addressing adoption and foster care issues, abandonment, communication problems, and isolation.
Donovan also has experience with more specific challenges such as bipolar symptoms, impulsivity, intellectual disability, autism spectrum features, and disruptive mood dysregulation. He uses CBT to target unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, client-centered methods to prioritize each person's goals, and solution-focused techniques for quick, goal-oriented work.
People who contact him usually begin by completing a brief questionnaire and scheduling a first session. He views the start of therapy as a practical step and helps clients set manageable goals early on.

How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's goals. Online sessions let the therapist and client talk through concerns and set goals together, with the therapist reflecting back what matters most to the client.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. In remote sessions CBT can include working on thought records, behavior experiments, and clear homework steps to try between meetings.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical changes and measurable goals. This approach is useful when a client wants brief, goal-directed work and concrete strategies to try right away.
Finding the best approach is part of the process. Donovan will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adjusts plans based on what is working and what clients prefer.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let clients try practical exercises and homework between meetings to see what helps in daily life.
