Brett Burlone is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 13 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and issues related to identity and relationships. Brett uses straightforward talk and respectful listening to help people move forward.

He describes his style as genuine and direct. Sessions focus on clear goals the person and therapist agree on. Brett uses motivational interviewing to encourage change and build motivation for healthier choices.

He has experience supporting people from LGBTQ communities and others coping with grief, trauma, parenting strain, career stress, and compassion fatigue. Brett adapts sessions to each person's situation and priorities rather than following a single fixed method.

In the room he aims to bring awareness to patterns and choices that keep someone stuck. He helps people break problems into smaller steps and practices that can fit into everyday life. Conversations are practical and focused on the next right step.

Many people come for help with relationship strain, intimacy questions, or recurring low mood. Brett emphasizes honest conversation, respect, and working together toward goals. He invites prospective clients to consider whether his direct, goal-focused approach fits their needs.

How motivational approaches translate to online care

Motivational interviewing focuses on listening for a person's own reasons to change and helping them build confidence to take next steps. Online or remote conversations still center on reflective questions, weighing pros and cons, and setting small achievable goals that fit daily life.

That approach pairs well with practical goal-setting. In a session the therapist helps break a larger problem into short, concrete steps and checks in on progress. This is useful for issues like addiction, stress management, or improving mood because goals can be adjusted as progress happens.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to decide how motivational interviewing and other strategies might help. They will shape the work based on what the person wants, their pace, and what feels most useful.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions into workdays, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people meet from different locations while keeping therapy consistent with their life.
