You've lived with fear, emotional pain, and/or loss for a long time. Maybe it feels like all of your life. Maybe this is a relatively new experience.

It doesn't have to feel this way. I would like to help you find the way to make things better. To feel better! Talking to the right therapist can help you not only feel better but ultimately become the best version of you that you can be.

I'm Zayna, originally from Arkansas and currently residing in New Jersey. I've served as an outpatient counselor for 9 years, specializing in trauma therapy. I earned my Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling from Southern Arkansas University. While I address a range of diagnoses, my true passion lies in trauma-focused treatment. I've undergone training and certification in three distinct trauma techniques, including EMDR. In therapy, I strive to empower my clients to take control of their emotions. I customize my approach to each individual, recognizing that no two people are alike.

I strongly believe you should feel comfortable with the therapist you choose and hopeful about the therapy. I view therapy as a partnership that is collaborative and supportive.

We are a team working together to reach your goals.

Life holds challenges. Sometimes we can get through them on our own; sometimes we need a little help and someone to talk to.

Just by reading this, you have taken the first step, I commend you.

Many of us find ourselves on a difficult path of self growth, realization, and identity. That road firmly establishes who we are; but, like anything worthwhile, is full of trials, missteps, and challenges. Nowhere, though, in our experience to build our lives does it say that our journey must be alone and without support, care, and the commitment of a dedicated collaborator. I believe everyone deserves an approach to therapy that is as unique as their own experiences, is affirmative, and consensual.
