Nadirah Burris, LPC

Nadirah Burris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, and life transitions. She draws on a decade of experience to support practical problem solving and clearer goals. Her style is straightforward and focused on what will help someone feel and function better in daily life.

She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thinking and change patterns that keep problems going. She also draws on acceptance and commitment strategies to help people identify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. Mindfulness and client-centered ideas guide how she listens and stays present in sessions.

Over ten years Nadirah has worked in schools, rehabilitation settings, and community agencies. Those varied roles shaped a practical approach that fits busy lives. She talks with people about realistic goals they can actually try between sessions rather than only discussing problems.

Nadirah helps with concerns such as depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, anger, ADHD, relationship and family issues, caregiver stress, and self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, attachment issues, autism spectrum concerns, body image, and blended family dynamics.

Sessions focus on clear steps, honest conversation, and tracking small changes. She encourages proactive care of mental health so it does not become an emergency later. The aim is to help people build a life that fits their needs and values.

How therapy methods work online

Nadirah commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. CBT helps people notice and change thinking and behavior patterns that increase anxiety or depression, which can be useful for stress, ADHD, anger, and mood concerns. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them, which helps when people feel stuck or face major life changes.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nadirah will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adjust methods over time. She focuses on small, practical steps agreed upon with the client so the work fits real life and goals remain achievable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, while phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit a work break. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when someone prefers shorter written exchanges. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around a busy schedule.
