My only goal is to help you and your family work through life's challenges — big and small. I am a Florida Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with an online therapy practice. I completed by M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 2000. I have a B.S. in Social Work from Muhlenberg College in Allentown, Pennsylvania. In the fifteen years since I began helping individuals and families as a therapist, I have focused my practice on brief therapy and solution-focused therapy. My goal is to make sure my clients reach a quick and effective solution to their varied challenges without dwelling on what brought them to therapy. I have worked with hundreds of clients from all walks of life in private practice and in multiple hospital settings in Florida, New York, and West Virginia. I taught other aspiring therapists as an Adjunct Professor of Marriage and Family Therapy at Marshall University in Charleston, West Virginia. My experience has provided me with a deep insight and a practical view of the problems people face in their personal and professional lives. I have worked with families on relationship issues, marriage problems, and chemical dependency. As a result, I can help address a variety of issues in your life.

Hi, my name is Harvey Norris. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Louisiana with over 30 years of experience in the mental health field. I have worked with a wide range of client concerns including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), trauma, and suicide. I specialize in dealing with Trauma, Veterans, and Active Duty service members. My counseling approach is person centered and I am warm and compassionate. I treat everybody with dignity and respect. I believe when I meet a new client my role is to “start where they are” and help them move forward along the path They want. I try very hard to avoid labels that stigmatize all humans. Change and tackling your issues takes courage and strength. Shaping your life to become more fulfilled and happy is very difficult. I appreciate you taking this opportunity to reach out to me and see if we can work together to help you be all that you can be. On a personal level, I have been married to the same wonderful woman since 1994 and we have a relationship that reaches back to 1989. We have five beautiful but stubborn children, trying to navigate forward in these chaotic times. I live in a nice house "owned" by my terrier (dog) named "Scruffy" or "Mr. Scruffles" who generously allows my family to live here with him.
