Jamie Harrison

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • San Marcos, TX


Hi, I’m Jamie Harrison, a Licensed Professional Counselor. I work with individuals ages 6 to 99, as well as couples and families, who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward but are ready for something to change.

You might be experiencing anxiety, depression, overthinking, emotional ups and downs, relationship stress, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others. Sometimes it’s not just one issue it’s a combination of life transitions, stress, or patterns that feel difficult to break.

When working with children and adolescents, I focus on helping them build tools to manage anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, anger, impulsive behaviors, and life changes in ways that feel supportive and age-appropriate.

With adults, I support clients in navigating life transitions, grief, anxiety, depression, negative thinking patterns, self-esteem struggles, and challenges with connection helping them develop practical skills to feel more grounded and in control.

When working with couples and families, I help improve communication, strengthen connection, and navigate conflict, life changes, and transitions in healthier, more effective ways.

In our work together, my goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported without judgment. I take a compassionate and practical approach, helping you not only process what you’re going through, but also build tools you can use in your everyday life.

I have experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, and therapy with me is collaborative—we move at your pace, focus on what matters most to you, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

Hello, my name is Veronica and helping my clients achieve their mental well-being goals is my passion. As a mother who lost her firstborn to bullying, and challenges with depression and anxiety, I know all too well the struggles and pain of mental illness.


I am a bilingual, licensed, and practicing counselor with a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling, certified in Reiki and Access BAR, with several years of experience providing individual, couples, family, and crisis counseling. I earned my Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at El Paso and have since worked in various clinical settings with children and adults with diverse diagnoses, such as MDD, GAD, schizophrenia, BPD, PTSD, and anger issues, to name a few. I am a passionate and empathetic therapist with strong counseling skills and a deep understanding of interpersonal and familial relationships. I have experience helping clients manage their distress by guiding them to become comfortable with vulnerability and assisting them in identifying, exploring, and processing their emotions. I pride myself on providing a safe and supportive space to work alongside you, helping you overcome traumas, crises, and barriers to gain control of your life.
