About
As a member of the lgbtqia+ community, with long term health conditions, I understand how important it is to have someone to talk to and work through life's challenges.
I am a licensed professional counselor with 9 years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, depression, addiction, lgbtqia+ concerns, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges. I take an open-minded and eclectic approach to treatment, drawing from cbt, motivational interviewing, and person-centered strategies to help clients feel safe, understood, and empowered to explore their experiences without judgment.
I hold a master’s degree in rehabilitation counseling from the University of South Carolina. My background includes adlerian theory and a range of evidence-based interventions that help clients examine where unhelpful thoughts originate and how to replace them with healthier beliefs and choices.
I am here to support you with compassion and collaboration. Wherever you are starting from, whatever you have experienced, and whatever goals you’re working toward, we can walk through it together. I would be honored to be part of your growth and help you move toward a more grounded, hopeful version of yourself.

15 years ago, I struggled with anxiety & depression. For a long time, I lacked the courage to acknowledge that I needed help. My life was on "auto-pilot." My best friend saw what I was going through, and he recommended I speak with a therapist. I am forever grateful that I listened to him, because my experience in therapy changed my life forever.
Jeff Burgdorfer is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 10 years of experience helping individuals and families. He specializes in anxiety, depression, addiction, bipolar disorder, ADHD, grief/loss, and men's issues. Jeff has spent the last 10 years working in many of the major treatment settings, providing therapy to clients in hospitals, residential rehab programs, and outpatient facilities. Through this work, he has cultivated and strengthened a unique skill set to help clients, using a person-centered approach to therapy.
Jeff's person-centered approach to therapy is rooted in the therapeutic relationship. When you meet Jeff, the focus will be on building trust, discussing what brought you to therapy, and why you decided to start now. These are important to Jeff's approach because your life & experiences are unique. For therapy to be effective, it can’t be one-size-fits-all.
Jeff is often asked about what contributes to client success in therapy. Although Jeff has learned a lot in his 10+ years as a therapist, his answer to this question has never changed: what matters most is how clients feel when they leave his office. It is truly the relationship that heals. He would love to meet you and discuss how he may be able to help.
