About Dominique
Dominique Harwell is an Ohio-licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and self-esteem concerns. She uses straightforward conversation and steady support to help people sort through painful feelings and make practical changes. Dominique aims to create a calm space where clients can talk without judgment and feel heard.
She blends approaches that center the client and teach skills. That can mean listening closely to understand what matters to a person, then offering concrete tools for managing emotions and changing unhelpful thoughts.
Background and approach
Sessions often include step-by-step strategies and short-term goals to try between meetings. Dominique has eight years of professional experience as an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. Her work has included a range of mood, relationship, and life-transition concerns.
She also focuses on issues like parenting stress, burnout, body image, and identity-related struggles. In practice she may use techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to help reframe thinking and from dialectical behavior therapy to teach coping skills. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing may be included for trauma-related symptoms when appropriate.
Existential and client-centered ideas guide how conversations unfold. Her approach is practical and collaborative. Dominique helps people set realistic steps, track progress, and adjust what they try if something does not fit.
She encourages small changes that add up to better day-to-day functioning.

How Dominique blends therapy approaches online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. It gives people space to describe what matters most while the therapist follows their pace to clarify goals and choices.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical techniques for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. It often includes simple exercises to try between sessions, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication. It emphasizes practical coping tools for moments of intense feeling and helps people build routines that reduce reactivity.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dominique collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan as progress is made so therapy stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy makes those approaches more flexible. Video calls let people keep face-to-face connection when that helps. Phone sessions can fit a short break between commitments or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, homework review, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy parenting and work routines.
