I work in a multidisciplinary team (MDT) setting consisting of Law Enforcement, District Attorneys, mental health providers, medical professionals and child advocates to conduct neutral, developmentally appropriate and trauma-sensitive forensic interviews of children who are alleged to be victims of sexual, physical, and/or emotional abuse or who have been witnesses to violent crimes.

Worked on a multi-disciplinary team of clinical forensic specialists, social workers, Special Victims detectives, Assistant District Attorneys and medical personnel to serve children who had been abused or suspected of having been abused. Provided short-term counseling to children and their non-offending caregivers using the Child and Family Traumatic Stress Intervention developed by Yale University. Was trained as a forensic interviewer of children.

While pursuing a Master's degree in Forensic Psychology from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, Harner interned in the Litigation and Criminal departments of Mintz Group where she acquired technical and analytical investigative skills.
