About Evan

Evan Burton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with six years of clinical experience. He works with adults concerned about stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, grief, and related struggles such as body image and codependency.

Evan uses a few practical approaches to help people notice how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together. He often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods to explore patterns that keep someone stuck. He also uses solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing to support change when people are ready.

Sessions begin with a conversation about what the person wants to work on and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Evan checks in about how an approach feels for the client and shifts methods if something isn’t working. He emphasizes straightforward tools and exercises people can try between sessions.

He has experience leading groups that teach coping skills and running family-oriented groups connected to substance use and eating disorder support. Those group experiences inform his practical, skills-based work with individuals.

Evan aims to make therapy a collaborative process. He helps people clarify goals, practice new responses, and notice small changes over time. For someone worn down by pleasing others, struggling to set boundaries, or living with another person’s drinking or mood swings, Evan offers structured conversations and concrete skills to try.

How sessions work

Approaches that translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting led by them, then taking steps toward what matters. This can help with anxiety, low mood, and life direction by clarifying values and small behavioral steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to break unhelpful cycles. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and many forms of addictive behavior. Client-Centered Therapy centers on a person’s experience and preferences, letting goals and pacing come from the client while the therapist reflects and clarifies what the person says.

Finding the right approach tends to be collaborative. Evan will discuss what you want to change, try approaches that fit your goals, and change methods if something does not feel helpful. The work is paced to what the person prefers and to the goals you set together.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It can also allow work to continue from different locations and make it simpler to try out skills between meetings.
