Therapists in Edison, NJ

I am a licensed professional counselor that has been working in behavioral health for over 20 years. I am a lifelong resident of South Jersey and obtained my Bachelors and Masters degrees from La Salle University in Philadelphia.

Are you tired of experiencing the same patterns and want to heal at the root of your symptoms? I specialize in treating trauma, addictions, and self esteem issues - in particularly with women and teenagers. When my clients first come in, their lives are overrun by fear and insecurities. They carry around deep shame about who they are and never feel quite “good enough”. They want to be confident and heal the patterns that are holding them back but do not know where to start.

Hello! I'm Shannon Burdick, LCSW, and I appreciate your interest in therapy with me. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I obtained my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Social Work from Rutgers University. Throughout my career, I've served in numerous roles, including individual and group therapy, adult and adolescent PHP, substance use disorder treatment programs, and hospital and primary care settings. I have extensive experience working with diverse populations of all ages and cultural backgrounds. My objective is to offer a secure environment where you can freely express yourself and receive compassionate understanding.

Life, at times, can feel heavy and you don’t need to carry the burden of your struggles or experiences alone. It can be challenging to find a space to open up about all the different areas of your life that make you who you are, past and present, and your hope for the future. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, symptoms of trauma, 1st gen family or cultural conflicts, coping with life transitions, relationship issues, identifying & setting healthy boundaries, or the myriad challenges that can arise, I am here to support you in finding your peace.

I have over 30 years of experience working with children, adolescents and their families, as well as individual adults, in independent practice, school and hospital settings. While I work with patients presenting with a wide range of issues and concerns I specialize in working with neurologically or developmentally 'atypical' children and adolescents - ADHD, learning disabilities, autism spectrum, etc. I often work with those neurodevelopmentally atypical children, adolescent and young adults who don't easily fit into these kinds of standard diagnostic categories. I look for and develop strengths, resiliencies and resources.

I pursue a therapeutic framework that supports setting goals and strategies for productive therapeutic work. I enjoy counseling individuals, couples, and families. I am committed to compassionately working with clients who may experience depression, anxiety, mood disorders, marital and relational issues, and difficult family dynamics. I also help clients who need assistance in life coaching, communication, and conflict resolution. I create a safe haven that encompasses transparency, non-judgment, and acceptance, while empowering you to achieve goals with desirable results.

With over 10 years in the field, I strongly advocate for prioritizing mental health as a cornerstone for happiness and stability in life. My specialization lies in working with individuals, families, and couples seeking to cultivate positive communication, connection with others, and establish healthy boundaries. Throughout my practice, I've assisted clients with a diverse array of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, social anxiety, and mood disorders. As your counselor, you can count on me to provide a nonjudgmental, compassionate, and empathetic approach.

Our therapy sessions offer personalized support, tailored to each client's needs and goals, in a safe and confidential environment. Our experienced therapists use evidence-based techniques to promote self-awareness and empowerment.

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 believe in creating a safe place for you to share your frustrations, fears and goals. I want you to feel heard and confident about moving forward.

I have been in practice for over 30 years, working with couples, individuals, children and families. I use many therapeutic tools depending on my clients' individual needs. These include: helping clients look at the negative things they tell themselves; discover how their problem(s) arose, which often ends a cycle of shame and self-blame; learn the interpersonal skills they lack and then devise homework assignments to practice new skills. I often use hypnosis to address issues on a deeper level than our conscious will. Finally I help my couples and families to understand and change destructive patterns of interaction.
