About Harouna

Harouna Soumah is a licensed therapist in Florida with 12 years of clinical experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and relationship or intimacy issues. He also supports those dealing with grief, parenting strain, workplace stress, and questions about life purpose.

He uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people build coping skills and manage strong emotions. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, realistic steps. Harouna pays attention to culture and identity when he talks through challenges with clients.

His work often centers on improving communication and repairing relationship patterns. He helps people handle trauma-related reactions, anger, impulsivity, or feelings of shame and abandonment. He also addresses concerns like sleep and eating difficulties, self-esteem, and career pressure.

Harouna describes his style as compassionate and collaborative. He listens for what matters most to each person, then adapts tools to match their needs. Over time clients learn ways to reduce reactivity, set boundaries, and make more deliberate choices.

He holds the LMHC credential, which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and the LMFT credential, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Harouna accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches adapt to online work

Harouna draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and recovery. One common approach he uses teaches concrete coping skills for anxiety, depression, and addictive urges, helping people recognize triggers and practice new responses. Another frequent element emphasizes interpersonal skill-building to improve communication, set boundaries, and repair patterns that cause repeated conflict.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit the person's situation. That collaborative process means techniques are adjusted over time if something is not helping.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and help people meet with a licensed professional from a different location. Confirm the session formats offered before booking so you know what will be available for scheduling.
