Talisah Harrison, LCSW, has always been passionate about helping others. Her interest in becoming a counselor was influenced by her work with adolescents in the foster care system. She saw firsthand how resilient adolescents and teens can be even when faced with some of life's most difficult challenges. She wanted not only to witness clients flourish but be a part of their journey and help in any way she could.

Ms. Harrison's area of expertise includes working with a varied population, including adolescents and adults with mood disorders, anger and stress management, self-esteem issues, interpersonal communication, and family issues. She believes in a patient-centered approach to care. She likes to say that if the client is the driver, she is the passenger and she goes where they go.

"What's most important to me during a visit is that patients feel that they are in a safe and protected environment where their needs come first. They can be confident that I am interested in helping them to achieve what they desire," she says. She enjoys most about her work is helping clients become better versions of themselves.

Outside of work, Ms. Harrison enjoys reading, working out, and cooking. She is passionate about reducing stigma and misinformation surrounding mental health issues, educating individuals and families on the challenges of living with or supporting someone with a psychiatric condition and how to manage stressors, and advocating for the needs of patients with mental health issues.
