About me

Byron Harris is the founder and head of Harris

I am the founder and head of Harris Plus Health Ltd, a company dedicated to providing trauma-informed, pluralistic counselling services. With my advanced diploma in psychotherapeutic counselling and a focus on trauma-informed practices, my approach to counselling is centred around the individual, not their problems.

At the same time, I am committed to ongoing personal and professional development and evidence-based practice. Pluralistic counselling, to me, is a multi-tool kit approach to therapy. Just like a handyman has a variety of tools at their disposal to tackle any task, I have a range of techniques and strategies to address my client's unique needs and concerns. Each client is unique and may require a different combination of tools to achieve their goals, so I use my expertise to select the most appropriate tools for each client, creating a tailored and personalized approach to therapy.

I work flexibly to meet the needs of each of my clients and I am committed to providing a warm and friendly environment where people can feel comfortable and safe. With my expertise and compassionate approach, I am dedicated to helping my clients achieve their goals and lead fulfilling lives.

To get started, all you have to do is send me a message or book a free initial consultation. During our free consultation, we'll chat about your needs and see how I can best help you. This will also give you a chance to get to know me and see if you feel comfortable working with me.

Based on our conversation, we'll work out the best way of working together and make sure you have all the information you need to get started. I believe in tailoring my approach to each individual client, so you can feel confident that the process will be customized to meet your specific needs.
