D.J. Burr | Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia

Hi, I’m D.J. Burr,

a licensed therapist providing virtual therapy to Georgia residents. My focus is helping adults heal from trauma, sex addiction, codependency, and the compulsive patterns that often live alongside them.

I'm a Black therapist with deep roots in this state. I'm a graduate of Argosy University in Atlanta and Kennesaw State, which means I understand the cultural landscape of the South and the specific weight Georgia clients carry when seeking help for sensitive issues. Whether you're in Atlanta, Marietta, Decatur, Savannah, Gainesville, Augusta, or anywhere in between, virtual therapy makes high-quality care accessible without the drive, the waiting room, or the chance of running into someone you know.

As a person in long-term recovery myself, I bring something most Georgia therapists can't: lived experience alongside clinical expertise. I know what it costs to do this work, and I know it's worth it.

With over 16 years of clinical experience, I'm a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and trained in EMDR. I'm licensed in Georgia (LPC012344) and provide virtual therapy to adults across the state.

What I Treat

Sex Addiction & Compulsive Sexual Behavior

Recovery from compulsive sexual behavior, pornography use, and the patterns driving them. We address both the behavior and the trauma underneath it.

Codependency

Breaking free from people-pleasing, rescuing, and the dysfunctional relationship with yourself that fuels them. Building a secure sense of who you are.

Trauma & PTSD

EMDR and trauma-informed therapy for adults dealing with the trauma underneath addiction, anxiety, and depression. This includes complex PTSD, religious trauma, and betrayal trauma.

A Note on Private Pay

I don't take insurance, and I provide monthly superbills you can submit to your insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Private pay means we have the privacy and the time to do this work without an insurance company dictating diagnosis, session length, or how long your treatment lasts. For sensitive issues like the ones I treat, that protection matters.

Ready to Reach Out

I'm currently accepting new Georgia clients. New clients typically start with a 50-minute intake session to make sure we're a fit.
