Treatment Approach

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
  • Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) Helps clients heal by working with different ‘parts’ of themselves, like inner critics or wounded children. It fosters harmony within the self.
  • Narrative Therapy Encourages people to view problems as separate from themselves and reframe their life story. It helps build resilience and self-identity.
  • Transpersonal Therapy Integrates spirituality and higher states of consciousness with psychology. It encourages growth beyond the individual self.
Approach Description: My sessions start with a standard intake and "getting to know you" interview.

Reuben Burke Practice Description
I am a pre-licensed Marriage and Family Therapist supervised by Dr. Richard Leary Lic. # 24294. Most of my work is with clients who experience distress, depression, and anxiety. I focus on those issues because of my early life experiences. It took me decades to understand and overcome those obstacles. I offer my experiential knowledge and my clinical training in the hope of helping others. I work from the Narrative perspective and I employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. These are evidenced based tools for depressive mental conditions. Diagnosis, although critical for some disorders, is not my priority. Coping strategies and relief from negative thoughts and behaviors are what I suggest at first. I offer brief therapies as well as more in-depth clinical work which may require more time. I co-create, with my clients, a strategic treatment plan with specific achievable goals and ways to assess if progress is being made.
