Openings for in-office & teleheath in March! What do you do? It’s the first thing we ask when we meet someone and a huge part of how we carve out our sense of self. Burnout and dissatisfaction have major impacts on our relationships, mental wellness and physical health. If your work situation is negatively impacting you, or you find yourself wanting more from your life as a whole, counseling is a great way to explore your path.

I have a heart for serving adults, adolescents, couples and families dealing with significant life issues such as the death of a loved one, chronic illness or pain, issues stemming from past trauma, parenting children with special needs, or managing chronic mental health conditions such as ADHD, anxiety and depression. I believe that it is helpful when a therapist has a personal understanding of the areas in which they specialize. I have personal experience with all of these circumstances, allowing me a level of empathy and insight that may not be possible otherwise.

My ideal client is an individual who is struggling or feels overwhelmed by life’s challenges. They need support in navigating their emotions and developing coping strategies to improve their mental well-being.

They want to break free from the cycle of negative thoughts and behaviors, and they’re seeking a compassionate and understanding counselor who can provide a safe space for healing and growth.

The past few years have been difficult for so many of us... It seems like any issues we had prior to the pandemic were put on hold and we were then faced with a brand new set of overwhelming issues to cope with! Now that it seems we are beginning to return to some sense of normalcy, there's finally time to focus on personal growth and healing. We have all had unique journeys. Why did we experience certain things, what was their significance in our lives, and how can we process and use our experiences to continue to grow? My goal for all of my clients is that they feel heard, validated, and empowered to make necessary changes.

Hi. I'm Joe Burke, and I help stressed and anxious professionals feel confident and in control. I tend to work with people in high-pressure environments like business owners, entrepreneurs, professionals, and working moms: people who on the outside are doing everything right, but inside feel stressed, anxious, and unsure of themselves. By strengthening your self-awareness and developing effective coping strategies, we'll work together to take away the authority anxiety has over your life so you can act with courage and confidence.

In this world, money matters. If you don’t have a good grip on your money, or if you feel very anxious when you try to plan your financial future, that’s going to take a huge toll on your life. Your health may suffer, your relationships may suffer, and you might even make worse financial decisions and lose a lot of your money as a result. In my work as a therapist, I’ve seen how our money issues can affect our whole life, which is why I decided to become a financial therapist for people in South Carolina and North Carolina.

Do you feel like you're holding yourself back? I work with people who want to get out of their own way. They identify as over-thinkers, high achievers, and perfectionists and may experience anxiety and/or depression from feeling like they’re not reaching their full potential. They might be musicians, singers, dancers, actors, cheerleaders, athletes, or working professionals. They feel frustrated that their own self-talk and perfectionism gets in the way of their ability to perform to their highest level.

Are you experiencing issues with anxiety, setting boundaries, or having trouble being assertive in your daily life? Has social anxiety or people pleasing affected your self confidence?

I provide a safe and nurturing environment where clients can be heard and empowered to explore, discover, understand, resolve, and transform their lives. I am committed and passionate about my work with clients. I offer therapeutic services to adolescents, adults, families, and couples in English or Spanish.

I offer individual therapy with adults and older teens (16+). I enjoy working with topics of anxiety, depression, stress, perfectionism & OCD, trauma & PTSD, eating & body image concerns, relationships, identity, young adulthood (including parents of young adults), and various spiritual/religious concerns which might include religious trauma, faith deconstruction, or scrupulosity. I often find that we - or the world around us - can put such pressure on ourselves to "keep it all together" or even be "perfect" whether in work or school, family or relationships, diet or exercise, or otherwise. But that can be a heavy load to carry.

You have an intuitive, spiritual, or metaphysical perspective. You're pursuing an inspired life, yet there's too much tension inside. Anxiety, heaviness, or history of trauma can weigh on your heart, and make it feel impossible to manifest your dreams. Perhaps your empathy or sensitivity creates its own challenges. With an experienced counselor drawing from a variety of approaches, you can grow in clarity and empowerment. With time, you'll be surprised at the peace and joy you develop about your path.
