About Nadirah

Nadirah Burris is an LPC with a decade of clinical experience who encourages clients to prioritize mental health as an essential part of everyday life.

Background and approach

She draws on ten years working across schools, rehabilitation settings, and agency environments to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction concerns, ADHD, relationship and family challenges, and life transitions. Her perspective emphasizes practical self-care and setting realistic goals so clients can rebuild a sense of control and well-being.

In sessions she centers a collaborative, goal-focused process that helps clients define attainable objectives and develop sustainable coping strategies. Nadirah blends evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and acceptance-based work with a client-centered stance that honors each person’s values and experience.

She invites clients to consider mental health as an ongoing priority and supports them in translating insight into everyday changes that fit their lives and responsibilities.

Integrating evidence-based approaches into online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and take small committed actions toward a meaningful life while learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to change behaviors and reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist offers empathy and respect to help clients explore their own solutions and strengths.

Choosing the most helpful approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be decided collaboratively. Nadirah will work with each client to consider goals, preferences, and presenting concerns to tailor an approach that fits their needs rather than imposing a single method.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for those balancing work, caregiving, or busy schedules. These formats make it possible to access licensed professionals from different locations, maintain momentum between sessions, and use a style of communication that best supports the client’s progress.
