About Kristen
LCMHC Kristen Burroughs is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina with six years of professional counseling experience and additional years as a K-12 school counselor. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Her practice also addresses communication problems, family concerns, guilt and shame, impulsivity, panic attacks, and developing self-love.
She uses solution-focused techniques and cognitive behavioral strategies in short-term work. Sessions often include client-centered conversation that pays attention to what matters most to the individual. Kristen also draws on psychoeducation to help clients learn skills they can use between meetings.
Her background includes work with transient and immigrant populations and with LGBTQIA+ people. She has experience supporting individuals who have engaged in self-harm or suicidal ideation and has led group programs in mindfulness and grief. School counseling experience informs her approach to motivation and developmental concerns.
Kristen integrates positive behavioral interventions and elements of play when appropriate. She has training in trauma-focused interventions and uses that knowledge to guide pacing and safety in sessions. Group and individual formats are part of her practice history.
In sessions she focuses on clear goals, practical strategies, and steady skill-building. She prefers short-term, solution-oriented work when that fits the person's needs, and will adapt the plan as progress and challenges arise.

How her approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experience. In practice that means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to identify what matters most and what to address first.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sessions teach simple exercises and practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage panic, or change unhelpful thinking patterns.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and clear goals. It is useful when someone wants quicker progress or a short series of sessions focused on specific problems like stress management or improving communication.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit the person's needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can be adjusted as the work progresses.
Confirm the current session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into daily life - for example, allowing shorter check-ins, saving travel time, or avoiding the need to be on camera during every meeting. These practical benefits help integrate therapy into a busy schedule without promising a particular service.
