About Harriet
Harriet Frank welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, or struggles with eating and self-worth. She is introduced as Harriet in conversation and offers a calm, listening presence to help people talk through what matters to them. Her style is straightforward and kind, aimed at making it easier to take the first steps towards feeling better.
Her work draws on person-centred counselling, which focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own answers.
Background and approach
She pays attention to how attachments, body image and relationships affect day-to-day wellbeing. Conversations cover practical concerns like communication problems, caregiver strain and managing chronic illness as well as emotional topics such as guilt, shame and isolation. Harriet has three years of experience and is BACP registered, which means she is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
She uses that background to keep sessions grounded and client-led. People meet to talk, reflect and try small changes that fit their life. Sessions explore issues including divorce and separation, young adult worries, social anxiety and phobias.
She aims to create an atmosphere where people feel heard and can explore self-love and identity at their own pace. To begin, readers should follow the site’s Start Therapy steps and complete the short matching questionnaire. That process helps match needs to available scheduling and subscription options.

How Harriet works online
Other evidence-based techniques often used alongside person-centred work include methods that focus on managing anxiety and mood. These involve practical steps such as noticing unhelpful thinking patterns, developing small coping routines, and practising new ways of responding to stressful situations. Such techniques can help with problems like social anxiety, low mood and stress-related symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and decide together what fits best based on needs, goals and preferences. That means trying things slowly and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, please confirm which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, save travel time and allow check-ins during short breaks. They also let some people choose less intensive ways of connecting, such as a shorter conversation when time or bandwidth is limited.
