About Memendra
Memendra Harris is a licensed professional counselor with 13 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She meets clients with a calm, straightforward manner and aims to make starting therapy feel manageable.
Harris believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths to the work. In sessions she helps clients identify those strengths and build practical steps forward. Conversations are aimed at clearer thinking, better coping skills, and small changes that add up over time.
Her background includes long-term clinical work supporting people through addiction challenges, relationship problems, parenting pressures, and transitions like separation or moves. She also offers focused help around abandonment issues, caregiver stress, control and codependency concerns, and fertility or fatherhood questions. Adoption and foster care are listed among areas she addresses when relevant to a client's situation.
Her approach is pragmatic and collaborative. She listens for what matters most to the client and then works with them to try out strategies that fit their life. That may include practicing new ways to communicate, managing urges and cravings, or building routines that reduce anxiety.
Memendra holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC. She practices in Alabama and carries experience across community and clinical settings. If someone is ready to begin, she supports the initial steps and ongoing planning toward clearer goals.
How evidence-based approaches guide online work
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on what a person can do day to day to feel better. One common approach helps people learn practical coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breathing, grounding, and planning manageable steps. These techniques aim to reduce overwhelm and increase a sense of control.Another frequently used approach works on behaviors and patterns tied to addiction and relationship problems. It involves identifying triggers, practicing alternative responses, and building routines that support recovery or clearer interactions with others. This kind of work often includes planning for setbacks and reinforcing small successes.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will listen to goals, preferences, and what has or hasnt helped in the past. Together the client and therapist decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
If you are thinking about online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking because the profile does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for faster check-ins during a lunch break or between errands. It can also let people use quieter surroundings or phone-only options when they need less bandwidth or a shorter session.
