Dr. Harig is a kind and understanding therapist. His experience and skill in helping me identify and work through my thoughts and experiences that hold me back from being my best self are amazing. I have appreciated Dr. Harig's sessions.

Dr Harig created a space in which healing can happen and over the course of several months, I have experienced so much growth. At 48 years old, I wasn't sure what therapy could really do for me but Dr Harig has been amazing and I'm so grateful to have found him on BetterHelp.
