About me

 

Hi. I'm Sally Harney, Ph.D., LPC, and the owner of Neutral Ground Counseling Group, LLC. My pronouns are she/her/hers. My ethnic heritage is half Irish and half Egyptian. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the Commonwealth of Virginia and provide telehealth services in the state of Colorado and in Washington D.C. as well. In my off-hours, you'll likely find me outdoors doing gardening, reading, or hiking with family and friends.

 

What I do and who I work with

 

As a mental health counselor, I provide psychotherapy and work most often with teen (12+) and adult individuals on a variety of personal struggles. The typical issues that I work with clients on are the following: anxiety, depression, social anxiety, self-esteem, self-assertiveness, domestic and interpersonal abuse, trauma, gender questioning/dysphoria and life transitions. I am a strong ally with the LGBTQIA+ community.

For my Autistic clients, I provide help in navigating the neurotypical world from a social model perspective, not a medical model.

 

How I work with my clients

 

As a trauma-trained, WPATH Certified member, and Autism informed therapist, I will tailor psychotherapy tools and sessions to support the needs of my clients. My counseling orientation is person-centered coupled with sociology - a broad perspective of how society, families, communities, and personal experience have shaped a person's ability to cope with their lived experiences.

I aim to provide a safe space for my clients to do the therapeutic work they need to do to live on their terms. I seek to empower my clients to feel positive about who they are and help them move through their issue(s) by providing tools and insights to draw upon.

Therapy available online and in-person.
