Hello, I'm Dr. Ellinor Burke and I'm a psychologist licensed in the state of Georgia. I've been in practice for more than 20 years and I've struggled with some of the same issues many of you do. I have developed effective treatments for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder because I have dealt with this disorder myself. If you're looking for an effective treatment I have one. Many of us are worriers and have anxiety related to this. Anxiety can have a draining effect on your life but it is treatable. .I use cognitive and behavioral therapy combined with supportive therapy to help you get to that positive place in your life. If you're dealing with depression I'm also here to help by looking at how your thoughts feelings and behaviors influence each other and how we can work together to deal with these issues. I see patients with varying issues and from many age groups. All in all a diverse population. I was a school psychologist for more than ten years and I do educational assessments as well as therapy for adolescents. I find teenagers are some of the most challenging and rewarding to work with. My work is very emotionally rewarding which is why I've been in practice for so many years. I'm now considering expanding my practice to a hybrid practice which will include seeing clients both remotely and in my office. Therapy begins with me getting to know you and for you to feel comfortable with me. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment because therapy works when we have a positive connection which I hope we will have.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session is a getting to know you session. You’ll be sharing information that will help us design a treatment program that will address your goals in therapy. Hopefully it will also give you an opportunity to get comfortable with me as your therapist. This your opportunity to share what you feel will be important in the therapeutic process.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I feel my biggest strength is my genuine involvement and caring for my clients. When my client enters my office they are the most important person in my life during that time and my goal is to help them achieve their goal in the best possible way.

If you are experiencing anxiety it’s important to look at not just how you’re feeling but what you’re thinking. This treatment is helpful in looking at negative messages we give ourselves. I like to combine this with supportive therapy.
