Dr. Doug Burford

Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor | DMin, LCPC, LPC

Licensed in Kansas and Missouri, my practice focuses on couples therapy, from premarital to later stages of marriage. I take great joy in helping couples apply new tools and insights to foster a more satisfying relationship.

The approach I bring to counseling is informed by past professional roles in social work (BSW), ministry (MDiv, DMin, CSD), and counseling (MAC).

Theoretically, I am grounded in Attachment Theory, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Christian theology and Gottman Method Couples therapy (Level 3-trained, with Advanced Specialty Training in Treating Affairs and Trauma in Couples Therapy).

As an EMDR therapist, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing may be utilized to address past experiences, negative self-talk, or trauma that is affecting the relationship.

As a certified Enneagram Coach, I find that some thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can be normalized by temperament, rather than pathologized; and the maladaptive expressions of temperament redirected.

My application of all of these counseling methodologies is conducted in a way that is consistent with scripture, as all truth is God’s truth, and thus there exists much overlap in what brings healing and harmony to relationships.

More information, including rates, can be found on my website, linked on this page.
