She also addresses the ways medical illness and chronic pain affect mood and functioning. Work in sessions centers on recognizing patterns, reducing distressing symptoms, and improving day-to-day coping.
Her approach combines talk-based work with skill practice and targeted interventions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and change reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy supplies emotion regulation and distress tolerance techniques. EMDR is listed among her methods for processing traumatic memories.
She attends to relationship effects of trauma and helps people navigate communication and attachment issues. She will also address parenting strain, caregiver stress, grief, and transition-related difficulties. Clinical work can include substance-related concerns and compulsive behaviors.
Dr. Harel has worked across diverse settings including conflict zones and urban centers. That background informs her focus on severe and complex trauma presentations. To begin, prospective clients are asked to use the site matching flow to schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of connection and communication. Online sessions can be used to identify attachment patterns, practice new interaction skills, and work on relationship-related concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new responses. In remote sessions this often means setting clear homework, practicing coping strategies between meetings, and reviewing progress together.The therapist will work collaboratively to find the right approach. She will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend which methods to try first. That choice can change over time as progress and needs are reviewed in ongoing sessions.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, have shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals commonly use video for face-to-face interaction or phone for simpler check-ins; ask about the available options and what works best for scheduling and focus.
