Bianca McManus-Harris is a Supervisee in Clinical Social Work dedicated to creating a therapeutic space defined by authenticity, compassion, and empowerment. With a calm and grounded presence, Bianca is often described by clients as easy to talk to and deeply supportive. She believes that therapy is not about "fixing" a person, but rather walking alongside them as they gain insight, resilience, and confidence in their own abilities. As a "DC Idol" winner and a lover of music, Bianca understands the power of voice—both in song and in self-advocacy. She brings this unique creativity and warmth into her practice, ensuring that every client feels comfortable enough to be their true self.
A Note from Bianca
I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, relationship challenges, and personal growth. I provide a supportive space for those seeking to build self-esteem, manage stress, or explore faith-based growth. My goal is to help you find your steady ground, turning life's challenges into opportunities for resilience and deeper self-understanding. My practice is rooted in Person-Centered and Strengths-Based approaches. I work collaboratively with you to foster engagement and insight. Our sessions will be a safe, non-judgmental space where we explore your inner experiences. You can expect a therapist who is reflective, intentional, and genuinely invested in your well-being. I offer therapy sessions with flexible scheduling to meet your needs. Please contact me to discuss current availability.
“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” — Carl Rogers
