Josh Burke is a licensed clinical social worker who offers practical, person-centered psychotherapy. He brings seven years of clinical experience working with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, addictions, trauma, and relationship and family issues.
He earned a Master of Social Work with a mental health concentration from Roberts Wesleyan College in 2013. For six years he delivered individual therapy in Rochester, New York, through primary care settings before transitioning to independent practice.
Currently based in Vermont, Josh provides therapy through telehealth as well as in-person consultations. He is licensed to practice clinical social work in New York and holds an independent clinical social work license in Vermont.
His approach is goal-oriented and person-centered, drawing primarily on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). These methods emphasize practical, action-focused strategies: ACT helps people accept difficult internal experiences while committing to values-driven action, and SFBT focuses on identifying solutions and building on existing strengths to address day-to-day stressors.
Josh recognizes that seeking help can feel vulnerable and believes the foundation of effective work is a trusting, supportive relationship. He aims to help people navigate change and move toward meaningful improvements in their lives.
Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes, online therapy has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions for most people.
A major benefit is convenience - clients can meet with their therapist in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to schedule care and integrate sessions into a busy life.
Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they want a different fit. For many people seeking help with everyday mental health concerns, online therapy offers an accessible and effective route to support and progress.
