Anne (Devon) Burnore, LPC

Anne (Devon) Burnore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of experience in mental health. She practices in North Carolina and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship and family issues, grief, and mood disorders. Her tone is open and accepting, aiming to help people make practical changes in their lives.

She describes her style as client-centered. Sessions focus on what the person wants to work on and move toward. She uses short, pragmatic tools from cognitive-behavioral methods and techniques from dialectical behavior therapy to help manage intense emotions and negative thinking.

Anne also draws from existential ideas and relationship work to address meaning, connection, and communication patterns. Conversations can include skill building, checking assumptions, and practicing new ways of relating. The pace is set by the client, and goals are revisited together as progress unfolds.

In-session work may include coping strategies for stress, steps to address addictive behaviors, grief processing, and communication exercises for partners. She also supports people handling chronic health issues, caregiver strain, and career or parenting challenges. Practical problem solving and small experiments between sessions are common parts of the process.

Clients can expect straightforward language and a nonjudgmental approach. The aim is steady progress toward clearer goals and healthier routines, even when change feels difficult. Anne invites people to take the first steps and figure out what will actually help in day-to-day life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting each person’s goals. It helps people clarify what matters to them and move at a pace that fits their needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises and homework to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage intense feelings and reduce conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose techniques that match goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, blending skills training, meaning-focused conversation, and relationship work when useful.

Confirm the available session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins, appointments that avoid travel time, and the ability to join from different locations are common conveniences. These practical benefits help people maintain momentum between sessions and try new strategies where they live and work.
