About Vicky

Vicky Burgh-Harris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, depression, and relationship strain. She practices from New York and draws on two decades of clinical experience. Her approach is direct and collaborative, with a focus on practical steps people can use in daily life.

She uses a mix of problem-solving and skill-building techniques to help people manage strong emotions and recurring patterns.

Background and approach

Sessions are conversational and aim to identify small, achievable goals. Vicky often combines cognitive behavioral ideas with solution-focused work to make change feel manageable. Mindfulness is another tool she brings into sessions to help people notice reactions without acting on them.

Motivational interviewing techniques are used when clients are working through substance use or trying to make big life changes. The work often includes practicing new responses between sessions and checking what is or isn’t helping. Vicky describes her style as open and interactive.

She partners with each person to build a plan that fits their day-to-day life. That plan may include short-term coaching, coping strategies, or longer-term therapy depending on what the person wants. Her background includes extensive work across a range of concerns, from parenting and family issues to trauma, intimacy-related problems, and career transitions.

She brings practical experience and steady support to people facing change or feeling stuck.

How Vicky’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s experience and priorities. It helps clarify what matters most and guides choices in therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills for changing them. Both approaches are helpful for anxiety, anger, depression, and coping with life changes.

Vicky uses these methods together with mindfulness and motivational interviewing when relevant. She will work collaboratively to decide which approach or mix fits a person’s goals and preferences. That means the first sessions often involve setting clear, short-term goals and checking what feels useful as work progresses.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared worksheets. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can work well for focused check-ins. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for brief coaching, quick updates, or ongoing support between meetings. These options give flexibility for scheduling, pace, and how people prefer to communicate.
