Anne (Devon) Burnore, LPC

Anne (Devon) Burnore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings 14 years of clinical experience to her practice in North Carolina. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and focuses on helping people make practical changes in their lives. Her style centers on listening, understanding, and working at a pace set by the client.

Clients meet with someone who uses a person-centered approach while also drawing on other methods. She often uses cognitive-behavioral ideas to tackle unhelpful thinking and DBT skills for managing strong emotions. Imago and existential ideas also inform conversations about relationships and meaning.

Sessions aim to address a range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, grief, sleep and eating concerns, parenting stress, and career matters. She has worked with people facing trauma, medical challenges, caregiver strain, and the effects of major life changes. The focus is on clear goals and steps that feel doable.

Her way of working is straightforward and accepting. She helps clients set their own goals and chooses interventions that match those goals. People who want a balance of empathic listening and practical tools often find this approach helpful.

Anne values steady progress over quick fixes. She explains what to expect and checks in about pace and comfort. The aim is to support growth, improve relationships, and help people cope better with everyday demands.

Approaches and how they translate to online work

Imago Relationship Therapy focuses on how patterns between partners form and keeps the conversation structured to improve understanding and connection. It is often useful for couples and for people wanting clearer communication in close relationships.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on empathic listening and following the client's pace, helping people clarify goals and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and offers concrete exercises to change unhelpful patterns - this is practical for anxiety, depression, and daily stressors.

Choosing the right approach usually happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust techniques if something does not feel helpful.

Confirm the exact online session options before booking since formats were not specified in the current profile. Many people find online work easier to fit into a busy schedule, since it can reduce travel time and allow sessions during a lunch break or between appointments. Online sessions also make it simple to bring in worksheets, skill-practice, or brief check-ins when needed, helping therapy connect more directly to everyday life.
