Helene Burke

Helene Burke is a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 23 years of clinical experience, having worked with individuals, families, and communities since 1997. She works with clients navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, work stress, coping skill development, and co-occurring disorders, and brings particular experience supporting military members and their families, children and parents involved in the foster care system, and families in community settings. Her work spans individual, group, telephonic, and online counseling formats across a wide range of practice environments.

Helene's approach is integrative, drawing from Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness practices. She applies these frameworks fluidly, guided by each client's unique needs and goals. Her work with families and young people emphasizes coping, communication, and social skills, with particular attention to reducing risk factors for drug and alcohol abuse in those navigating significant stress and instability at home.

With more than two decades of experience across diverse populations and settings, Helene brings a depth of perspective that is rare in clinical practice. Whether working with someone managing the pressures of military life, the complexities of the foster care system, or the everyday weight of anxiety and work stress, she approaches each person with the same commitment: to help them build skills, find meaning, and move toward a life they actually want to be living.
