It is with great enthusiasm that we announce Greg Burnham, MS, LMFT as the newest member of the Outback Therapeutic Expeditions Team. Greg officially assumed the role of Clinical Director at Outback on Monday, February 13, 2017, and will be an active member of our senior management team. He will be working with a group of adolescent boys and currently accepting referrals into his group.
Greg received his master's degree from Harding University in Arkansas and has been working as a licensed marriage and family therapist for 18 years. Prior to joining Outback, he served as the Clinical Director for Wingate Wilderness Therapy where he sharpened his clinical acumen for differential diagnoses between cognitive rigidity and oppositionality. His strategic approach creates space for students to access their motivation and hope, understand themselves from a neurodevelopmental, social and emotional perspective, and expand their capacity to empathize and change. Much of what Greg does is driven by his fundamental philosophy of utilizing skills-based interventions vs control/motivation based interventions.
We are truly excited and fueled with ingenuity as we move forward in 2017 as an integrated team. To state that this union between Outback and Greg is a good match would be a gross understatement and we look forward to blending his contributions into the existing foundational pillars of Outback: Identity, Resilience, Family Dynamics, and Future Vision.
Please join us in welcoming Greg Burnham, MS, LMFT as our Clinical Director at Outback. Greg can be reached directly at greg@outbacktreatment.com.
