Her approach is holistic and client-centered, focusing on the whole person while meeting individuals exactly where they are in the present moment. She integrates person-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), helping clients explore their past, understand their present, and develop healthier thought patterns that lead to meaningful, lasting change.
Cali brings a unique background in sport and performance psychology, along with years of experience in education at the high school level. This diverse foundation allows her to effectively support individuals across a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, women’s issues, and performance-related stress. She works with athletes and high performers to overcome mental blocks, build confidence, and strengthen focus—both on and off the field.
Her work is deeply influenced by personal experiences witnessing mental health challenges within her own family, which fuels her empathy and passion for helping others. Cali believes that every individual has the capacity for growth and transformation, and she strives to foster resilience through empathy, acceptance, and evidence-based care.
She is also passionate about social justice and mental health advocacy, emphasizing inclusive, equitable care for individuals from all backgrounds. Cali’s goal is to ensure every client feels seen, respected, and supported throughout their healing journey.

What should a new client know about working with you?
New clients can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where they feel safe to be open and understood. Cali Burke takes a holistic, client-centered approach to therapy, focusing on who you are as a whole person while meeting you where you are in the present moment. She believes that each individual has the capacity for growth and change, and her goal is to help you feel empowered throughout that process.
Her style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both empathy and practical tools. Cali integrates person-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which means sessions often include space for you to share your experiences—past, present, and future—while also identifying patterns in thoughts and behaviors that may be keeping you stuck. Together, you will work to reframe those patterns and develop healthier, more effective ways of coping and responding.
Cali has a strong background in sport and performance psychology, which allows her to also support athletes and high performers in managing pressure, improving focus, and building confidence.

What is your typical process for working with clients?
Cali Burke’s process begins with creating a safe, confidential space where clients feel comfortable sharing openly. She prioritizes building trust from the very first session, clearly reviewing confidentiality and ensuring clients understand their privacy and the structure of therapy.
In the initial session, Cali focuses on getting to know you—your story, current concerns, and what brings you to therapy. A key part of this first visit is collaborative goal setting. Together, you will identify what you hope to gain from therapy, whether that’s reducing anxiety, improving relationships, enhancing performance, or building healthier coping strategies. This helps guide the direction of future sessions and ensures your care is personalized and purposeful.
Ongoing sessions are tailored to your individual needs and typically include a blend of open conversation and practical skill-building. Cali uses a person-centered approach to provide space for you to process experiences, while also incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to help identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop new, more effective behaviors. Sessions may involve exploring past experiences, addressing current challenges, and working toward future goals at a pace that feels right for you.
For athletes and high performers, sessions may also include strategies to improve focus, manage pressure, and build confidence both on and off the field. Throughout the process, Cali maintains a collaborative, supportive style—checking in on progress, adjusting goals as needed, and empowering you with tools you can apply outside of session.
Overall, clients can expect a structured yet flexible approach that emphasizes confidentiality, trust, goal-oriented growth, and meaningful, lasting change.

More information on payments and coverage
Before your first appointment, our team will gather and verify your commercial insurance benefits to help you clearly understand your financial responsibility. This process includes confirming your coverage, eligibility, copay, coinsurance, deductible status, and any authorization requirements. Once verified, we will provide you with an estimate of your expected cost per session so there are no surprises.
As a courtesy, we handle claim submission on your behalf and work directly with your insurance company. We follow your plan’s Explanation of Benefits (EOB) and will only collect what is determined to be your responsibility according to your coverage. If your insurance processes a claim differently than initially estimated, we will communicate any updates promptly and transparently.
We also accept many Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), which may offer a set number of sessions at little to no cost. Our team will verify your EAP benefits and help coordinate those services if applicable.
For clients seeking more affordable options, we offer low-cost counseling sessions with a Master’s level student counselor under the supervision of a licensed professional. This provides access to quality care at a reduced rate while still ensuring appropriate clinical oversight.
Our goal is to make the financial aspect of therapy as simple, transparent, and manageable as possible, so you can focus on your care.
