About
My passion is in helping individuals and families identify healthy solutions to life's challenges. Obstacles are a part of life and more often than not, it is just a matter of reframing the situations and strategizing to find an attainable path. Through sensitive and collaborative goal-setting, we will work to identify the most effective methods in reaching your goals. Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you may have.
Testimonial: For those looking for a great therapist, you must consider Dr. Burns. She is all things good therapists should be: compassionate, insightful, full of empathy and kind. She also has a good sense of humor, which can help relieve anxiety and stressful times.
I made more progress in my own self-journey with her in 18 months than I did in 10 years with my prior therapist. She helped dramatically with a tough situation. I highly recommend Dr. Burns. She rates "five stars" out of five stars. The best of the best. --RSH
