Getting to know Chris Buro

The provider is a “Licensed Professional Counselor" and their license number is 37PC00805500. Chris Buro treats patients starting at 15 years old. I obtained my Master’s Degree in Counseling with a concentration in Mental Health Counseling from Montclair State University. I am a Licensed Associate Counselor in the State of New Jersey as well as a National Certified Counselor. My experience includes both individual and group treatment. I have worked in a variety of settings which include outpatient and residential programs, allowing me to have the opportunity to work with a wide range of disorders and clients. I completed my internship at a substance abuse clinic which gave me a wealth of knowledge and experience with that type of population. The approach I take in my treatment is building a working relationship with clients to enable trust between client and counselor. My theoretical orientation is a combination of Person-Centered/Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and am a strong believer in empowering people to make their own choices. I encourage people to look at their thoughts and feelings because a lot can be learned from how we think and perceive the world. Motivational interviewing is another tool that I rely on in my treatment. Building up a client's positive self image and pointing out discrepancies has many benefits to helping a client achieve their goals. In my free time I enjoy spending time with family and friends. During the summers, I love taking trips down the shore and relaxing by the beach. I also like hiking, trying new restaurants, and watching different kinds of shows. Clinical services in New Jersey are provided by New Jersey Behavioral Health PLLC.

Other than my inability to understand how to access telemedicine virtual conferencing the session itself was good. Chris was very patient and was able to collect a lot of information that we will use in next session.
