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.

One of the most essential things in life is for a person to know themselves deeply. This is not exclusive to either the so-called “good” or “bad” parts of ourselves, but rather involves taking inventory of all parts to be able to see the whole picture accurately. Whether it be learning to trust others, processing trauma, setting stronger boundaries, or gaining more self-compassion, we will work together to develop an individualized treatment plan that targets your needs. My approach is straightforward yet warm, inviting you to join a non-judgmental environment where you are encouraged to deeply explore your inner world.
