Anne (Devon) Burnore , LPC

Anne (Devon) Burnore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of experience in mental health. She practices from North Carolina and helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, and depression. Her work also addresses parenting struggles, sleep and eating problems, anger, and attention-related issues like ADHD.

Devon’s style centers on the person in front of her. Sessions are shaped around what the client wants to work on and move toward. She uses straightforward conversation, reflective listening, and practical tools so people can try new ways of coping between sessions.

Many clients come with trauma, abuse, or complicated grief. Devon brings approaches that focus on current problems and skills-building to manage intense emotions. She also draws on methods aimed at relationships and communication when couples or partners want to improve connection.

People who prefer a calm, nonjudgmental space may find her approach helpful. She supports those dealing with caregiving stress, chronic illness, body image, codependency, and life transitions. Sessions may include problem-solving, behavior-focused techniques, and exploring personal values.

Devon meets people where they are and moves at a pace they set. Her practice includes coaching-style work for career or life changes, and attention to compassion fatigue for helpers. She offers therapy by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting the client’s own goals. Online sessions using this approach prioritize reflective conversation and building trust so clients can choose what to tackle next.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In an online setting CBT often includes short exercises, thought logs, and homework to practice between video or messaging sessions, which helps with anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Online DBT work can include skills coaching, practicing grounding techniques over video or phone, and using text check-ins to reinforce new coping strategies during stressful moments.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the problems you want to solve, then recommend methods to try. Clients and the therapist can adjust methods over time based on what is helping.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or travel is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skills practice, or when clients prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, and caregiving schedules.
