Karla Burgess

Hello and Welcome to Karla Burgess Counseling. I am so glad you've taken this step to seek support for whatever you are going through. My name is Karla Burgess. I am a licensed independent mental health practitioner (LIMHP, LPC) in the great state of Nebraska. My 20 years of experience have taken place in either a hospital setting or in my private practice in a rural community. Being the only mental health practitioner in my area has given me experience with various mental health concerns, such as anxiety/depression, behavioral concerns, parenting, relationship issues, and grief. My experience as a school counselor makes me very comfortable working with kids, teens, and adults. My treatment approach includes creating a strong relationship with the person I work with. I'm trained in many counseling theories but typically use ideas and techniques from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and a Client-Centered approach. I believe in goal-directed work and make sure that the steps we are taking together are getting you closer to your counseling goals. Former and current clients describe me as kind, compassionate, caring, supportive, and empathetic. Creating a genuine connection with my clients is key to our success. I consider this opportunity to insert myself into your life a privilege and a huge responsibility. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you through whatever is hindering your growth and happiness. *No refunds- sessions never expire*
