Background and approach
Client-Centered Therapy creates space for people to speak and be heard while they work toward their goals. She also draws on mindfulness practices to reduce worry and increase present-moment awareness. Motivational Interviewing can help people find their own reasons to make changes.
Psychodynamic ideas are used when patterns from the past seem connected to current problems. Dr. Burton has experience with adults adjusting to college life and with older adults facing aging and caregiver stress.
She supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, bipolar concerns, and social anxiety among other issues. Additional focuses include codependency, communication problems, impulsivity, and workplace stress. Her practice includes video, phone, chat, and text-based messaging, and she has worked with virtual therapy formats before.
She welcomes people who are ready to commit to change and to work collaboratively on practical strategies and clearer goals.
How her approach fits online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy starts with attentive listening and respects each person as the expert on their life. In an online setting this approach helps people speak openly about anxiety, relationships, or career stress while the therapist follows their pace and goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and then trying specific exercises to change them. Online sessions can include guided practice, homework tasks, and short skills coaching between visits to address worry, mood, or attention problems.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce habitual worrying and increase calm. These practices translate well to video or phone formats and can be used in brief live chat or text check-ins to reinforce practice during the week.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and style. That may mean trying a few tools and adjusting over time based on what helps.
Online formats offer flexibility for people balancing work, school, caregiving, or mobility needs. Video calls are useful for longer sessions and face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins, progress notes, or brief coaching between sessions.
