About Kelly

Kelly Burkett is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 16 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, career transitions, depression, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She approaches therapy with respect for each person's expertise about their own life, helping clients build on existing strengths to address obstacles and pursue more satisfying outcomes. Her work centers on collaborative, goal-oriented care that recognizes the courage it takes to seek change.

Using practical strategies grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, she helps clients identify unhelpful patterns, test new behaviors, and develop skills for managing mood and worry. Sessions emphasize clear, actionable steps combined with compassionate support so clients can make steady progress.

Kelly aims to be a steady guide during times of uncertainty, offering a thoughtful balance of structure and empathy. Prospective clients who value evidence-informed techniques and a partnership-focused approach will find a clinician experienced in helping people navigate emotional and practical life demands.

CBT-informed Care and Flexible Online Options

Kelly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT emphasizes practical skill-building such as restructuring thinking patterns and practicing new coping strategies, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

The choice of approach is treated as a collaborative process. She works with each client to determine which techniques best fit their goals, preferences, and life context, adjusting strategies over time as needs evolve. This cooperative planning helps clients feel invested in the direction of their work together.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase accessibility and convenience. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during transitions, and access consistent support from a licensed professional without travel. The varied formats also allow clients to select the communication style that feels most comfortable for different goals and moments.
