Start Your Healing Journey with Compassionate Counseling in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach County
It's time to thrive, not just survive. You are worthy of a fuller life.
Deciding to start counseling is a significant first step toward personal growth and reflects your readiness for change. To achieve a lasting transformation, it's essential to examine the limiting beliefs that may be preventing you from experiencing true happiness and fulfillment. With my support, you can discover new skills that will help you create a more balanced and meaningful life.
In our fast-paced world, getting the support you need should be straightforward and within reach. That’s why I exclusively offer telehealth services (video and audio) using a secure platform called SimplePractice. For many, online therapy offers a convenient and comfortable way to receive counseling. Connect with me from the sanctuary of your home using the electronic device of your choice. All telehealth appointments are hosted via a HIPAA-compliant platform, and all sessions are encrypted and remain confidential.

Shawnda Burns, LMHC & CAP: Your Partner with Over 20 Years of Transformative Counseling
Life is full of challenges, and sometimes we need help to navigate through the tough times. When things are not going well in your life or your relationships, you may be feeling discouraged, sad, or hopeless. Therapy can help. Deciding to ask for help can be the hardest step. Sometimes we need another person to listen to us, encourage us, and help us stay on the right track. Opening up can be painful, but it is also the first step toward healing the wounds hidden beneath the surface.
