About Dominique
Dominique Harwell is an Ohio-licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people handle strong emotions and rebuild balance in daily life. She creates a straightforward, calm space where clients can talk about stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, low self-esteem, anger, and motivation without feeling judged.
She uses clear, down-to-earth conversation to help clients name what’s going on and decide what to try next. Sessions are practical and collaborative, with small goals that fit into busy lives.
Background and approach
Dominique emphasizes building healthier connections and finding better work-life balance. With eight years of experience, Dominique draws on several therapeutic approaches to match individual needs. She often uses client-centered listening to follow what matters most to each person.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors. She may also use Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. Dominique has worked with people facing depression, ADHD, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, body image struggles, postpartum depression, and career or life-purpose concerns.
She also supports those dealing with blended family challenges, divorce, communication problems, and guilt or shame. Clients can expect a collaborative plan that reflects their goals. Dominique encourages steady progress through practical strategies and real-world skills.
Her approach is warm, patient, and focused on usable steps toward a more manageable day-to-day life.

How these approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on attentive listening and following what the client says matters most. Online sessions let the therapist reflect back concerns and priorities while clients steer the pace and topics. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In an online format CBT is useful for setting small practice tasks, tracking patterns between sessions, and reviewing progress together. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. Teaching and practicing these skills over video or messaging can make them easier to use in everyday moments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Dominique will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts plans as needed, combining listening, skills training, and targeted exercises based on what helps most in real life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people see facial cues and practice skills in conversation. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat or text is useful for brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, or when someone prefers typing their thoughts. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while adapting to daily routines.
