About Brett

LMHC in Florida with 13 years of experience, Brett Burlone works with adults on a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, parenting stress, and challenges faced by LGBTQ people. He uses a client-centered approach and draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people consider change and set practical goals. Brett describes his style as direct and genuine and focuses on respect and sensitivity in sessions.

People come to him for help managing stress, coping with life changes, and addressing patterns that interfere with daily life. He talks through current problems and helps clients make specific, achievable plans. Sessions emphasize clear goals and steady steps rather than vague promises of quick fixes.

Brett often uses Motivational Interviewing to explore a person’s reasons for change and to increase willingness to try new behaviors. He adapts his approach to each person’s situation and preferences, working at a pace that fits the client. Conversations are straightforward and focused on practical next steps.

With experience across a wide set of concerns, Brett aims to increase awareness of patterns and to support clients as they try different strategies. He works with people to identify strengths and barriers, then develops small, measurable objectives. Progress is reviewed and adjusted as needed.

Sessions are offered in English and operate through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Readers should complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin the intake process.

How Motivational Interviewing informs online work

Motivational Interviewing focuses on understanding a person’s own reasons for change and strengthening their motivation. It uses reflective listening, open questions, and collaborative planning to help someone move from uncertainty to small concrete actions. This approach is often useful for addictions, ambivalence about change, and lifestyle shifts.

Brett also practices a client-centered stance that prioritizes agreed-upon goals and practical steps. That means the therapist and client decide together which methods to try, check what is working, and adjust plans as needed. This collaborative process helps match techniques to each person’s needs and preferences.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule and allow for more frequent check-ins when that helps maintain momentum. Because the exact session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. The subscription model used for sessions can be canceled at any time, which may help people manage ongoing commitment while trying therapy.
