Steve has been great! From working with me on things that felt hugely important to little nuances of life, he always listened first and offered great advice second. I highly recommend him for young professionals working to sort out their lives or anyone who is at a crossroads and could use someone in their corner.

More about Stephen

  • 20 years' experience
  • Male
  • LICSW

Hi, I am Stephen, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both New Hampshire and Massachusetts with over 20 years of experience working with people who struggle with their relationships (including alternative relationships), parenting problems, career challenges, or have experienced trauma (physical or emotional), that you would like help working through. Helping people through therapy and coaching, improve their quality of life is my goal. I have significant experience working with issues related to adoption as well.

My approach is interactive, trauma informed, non-judgmental, and thoughtful. I believe in a client centered approach (you determine your goals and what you want to work on). Our sessions will be solution focused as we identify and build upon your strengths. We will work together to develop a plan that meets your needs.

Deciding to meet with a therapist is a big step. Let me be part of your journey and see what we can accomplish together.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I’ve only had a couple of sessions but I do feel Mr Burke understands and can help me address my issues and achieve the goals set.

K.A.·Apr 2022

Steven has been a great resource for the meetings I’ve had with him. He asks questions that prompt lots of thought, listens carefully, and provides helpful connections and stories when reflecting. He cares a lot about the people he works with, and does everything with genuine interest. He’s been a great person to work with. I would highly recommend!
