About Harrison

Harrison Burdo is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with five years of experience. He works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, family issues, and people coping with life changes, including questions about life purpose. He sees adults who are navigating major transitions or feeling stuck and unsure what comes next.

Harrison uses a person-centered, integrative approach. He pulls from multiple evidence-based therapeutic techniques rather than relying on a single method. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and on understanding patterns that get in the way of progress. Conversations move between current problems and the personal history that shapes them.

In the room he aims for a direct and collaborative relationship. Clients can expect to be asked about their goals, their daily habits, and what they want to change. He helps people name patterns such as control issues, attachment concerns, or difficulties with communication and then tries concrete ways to alter them.

Harrison has worked with trauma, mood concerns, compulsive behaviors, and struggles with identity and belonging. He also supports people coping with divorce or separation, abandonment, guilt, and shame. His approach combines attention to emotional experience with straightforward techniques to manage symptoms and improve decision making.

Sessions are in English and based in New York. Harrison does not accept international clients. If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the booking flow.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Harrison describes his work as person-centered and integrative. A person-centered approach focuses on listening closely to the whole person and following what matters most to them. It helps when someone needs space to name their feelings, sort priorities, and feel respected while making decisions.

An integrative approach means he draws from several evidence-based techniques as needed. That can include short-term strategies to reduce anxiety or mood symptoms, alongside deeper work on attachment, shame, or life purpose. Those tools are used to address issues like trauma, compulsive behaviors, or difficulty with relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Harrison will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He typically checks in about what is helping, what feels hard, and adjusts the plan together so progress is practical and realistic.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people connect from different locations within the same state and schedule care around work or family commitments.
