The NWSL regular season is due to end on 1 November, with the play-offs to come later that month.
There is a break in the season in June as a result of the men’s World Cup being co-hosted by the USA.
Harvey says Fishlock could return to action faster than many players would having “watched her recover from many injuries”.
“I know Jess very well. Her body reacts differently than most human beings, in a positive way, to injury and her recoveries are often quicker than most just because of who she is,” Harvey said in an interview posted on social media by Reign.
“But with this one we obviously want to make sure we do it right, we get her back safely. I think the summer break is probably a blessing in disguise in regards to timelines, so we’ll see.
“I think overall from how I felt when I saw it [happen] and what the initial fears were, I think everything has been positive after that.”
