Thank you so much for looking at my profile. I'm a Social Worker with over 20 years experience treatment children, adolescents, young adults, parents/caregivers, and adults. I have honored to help my clients travel their individual paths in order to feel better about their worlds. Helping people identity what is stopping them from reaching their goals and breaking down these barriers drives my work.

I've been trained in various treatment options but I know it all comes back to the relationship we build together. As your therapist, I hope to provide you with support, strategies and gentle though direct, feedback and reflection. And most likely there will be some humor thrown in because sometimes the work we will do together needs it!

Dr. Kirk Burke-Hamilton

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


I explore a patient's need for external validation and identify old, negative motivators used to inspire achievement-based goals. I teach self-care and self-regulating practices while modeling healthy attunement. Together, we explore conflict-avoidant behaviors and healthy dependency. Being a highly sensitive person is not a weakness but an empathic strength. I explore the guilt, shame, and fear that cause "analysis paralysis." I analyze unhealthy habits and teach clients to build trust and reconnect with a traumatic body that no longer trusts. You are the expert and I am your guide.
