About Nadirah
Nadirah Burris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 10 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting pressures, relationship strain, addiction concerns, and family of origin issues. She also sees clients facing ADHD, depression, anger, and life changes. Her work draws on practical therapy methods aimed at everyday problems rather than jargon.
Nadirah writes plainly with a focus on mental health as a priority alongside the rest of life. She asks straightforward questions about goals and whether those goals are realistic. Sessions look at how patterns from the family someone grew up in or other past experiences continue to affect thoughts, feelings, and behavior now.
Her background includes work in schools, rehabilitation settings, and agencies. That variety means she has experience with different kinds of stressors and environments. In conversation she emphasizes making step-by-step plans and realistic expectations so progress is measurable.
In practice she uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. These approaches provide both skills for day-to-day coping and ways to consider larger life questions and values.
People meet her to talk through parenting concerns, manage anxiety, address addictive patterns, or to understand how family dynamics shape current relationships. She encourages taking proactive steps for mental health and building concrete goals that fit a client's life.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward them while accepting uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It can help when old family patterns or anxiety get in the way of pursuing what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns over time. That approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Conversations in early sessions typically include reviewing what matters most, what has been tried before, and which strategies feel realistic to use between meetings. The original profile does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, reduce time spent traveling, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people use remote sessions to work on parenting plans, manage daily stress, or practice CBT and ACT skills between meetings, and the therapist adapts tools to fit the way clients live.Areas of expertise
