About Eugene

Eugene "Gene" Harvie uses straightforward, practical methods to help people facing stress and anxiety. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused techniques to help people find clearer thinking and workable steps. Gene is an LCSW - a licensed clinical social worker - with 32 years of experience in Texas.

He speaks English and works with people who want steady, down-to-earth help. He focuses on common concerns like relationship strain, parenting pressures, low self-esteem, and depression.

How Eugene works

He also helps people with communication problems, control issues, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. Panic attacks, social anxiety, and phobias are additional areas he addresses with structured approaches. In sessions he emphasizes openness and direct conversation.

He aims to create a calm space where people can say what they are feeling and thinking. The work often includes looking at unhelpful thoughts and trying small, practical changes between meetings. Gene pairs short-term goal work with tools people can use right away.

That can mean setting a small experiment, practicing a new way to talk to someone, or learning how to manage a panic signal. He balances immediate problem-solving with attention to underlying patterns. Clients who choose him will find a clinician who values clear plans, steady support, and real-world strategies.

Getting started is described as a straightforward step: complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule the first session according to availability.

Online support options

How CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online

CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. It helps people who struggle with anxiety, panic signals, and persistent low mood by teaching practical skills to change thinking and behavior. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on small, achievable goals and the steps that lead to them. It works well for people wanting quick, concrete changes in relationships, communication, or daily routines.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences and then recommend techniques that fit. That process is collaborative, with adjustments made as progress or needs change.

Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or text-based messaging can be better for brief check-ins, step-by-step problem solving, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life while keeping the focus on practical tools and measurable progress.
