About Debbie Harris

Debbie Harris is co-owner of New Creation Counseling Center and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma, bringing 25 years of experience to her work. Her interest in counseling began during her college years after a formative experience working at a Christian sports camp, and she pursued formal training in psychology and counseling to follow that calling.

She earned an undergraduate degree in Psychology and Counseling from Southwest Baptist University and a master’s degree in Community Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy from John Brown University. In 2001 she co-founded New Creation Counseling Center, an agency that provided therapy to abused children and their families across Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri while partnering with children’s advocacy organizations to promote healing.

Harris has built an extensive practice treating trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and a range of other concerns. In 2012 she received certification in equine therapy with OK Corral, and in 2021 she began work with a local school system doing special needs testing and providing in-school therapy services. She continues to work with many young women who have been victims of sex trafficking and remains committed to a ministry-minded approach focused on bringing hope and practical help to individuals and families in need.

Clinical Approaches and How Online Therapy Works



Debbie Harris uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and develop practical skills for reducing anxiety, managing mood, and improving daily functioning. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns because it focuses on changing thinking and behavior to create measurable improvement.

She also applies Solution-Focused Therapy, a goal-oriented method that emphasizes clients' strengths and small, achievable steps toward change. Solution-Focused Therapy is useful for resolving immediate problems, improving relationships, and supporting people through life transitions by building on what is already working.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Debbie works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time to support progress and resilience.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by allowing sessions by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, or other commitments and can help maintain continuity of support when in-person visits are not practical.
