About Vicky
Vicky Burgh-Harris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, relationship and parenting difficulties, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy.
Her style is direct and interactive. She works with clients to set clear goals and practical steps. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits and testing different ways of responding.
Vicky uses straightforward methods drawn from cognitive behavioral work, client-centered practice, solution-focused techniques, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness. That means sessions often mix thought-focused exercises, simple behavioral experiments, and steps to build motivation and clearer communication.
She also pays attention to family of origin issues, abandonment concerns, blended family and fatherhood issues, caregiver stress, codependency, and challenges that come with aging. Vicky addresses trauma and abuse, anger, career transitions, coping after disasters, and substance-related problems alongside relationship and intimacy concerns.
Practical planning is part of the work. She helps create short-term strategies people can try between sessions and reviews what works. For people who want a structured, problem-solving approach, she uses measurable steps and regular check-ins to track progress.
How Vicky uses CBT and related approaches online

CBT techniques here might include simple experiments, tracking reactions, and practicing alternative responses to reduce anxiety or low mood.She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person's perspective and pace, and mindfulness techniques to develop present-moment awareness and steadier attention.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Vicky collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as they learn what helps. That process includes setting concrete goals, trying short exercises between sessions, and reviewing progress together.
