My name is Shanita Burgess and I’m a therapist and motivational ally. What that means is I help identify roadblocks in the way of your best self and keep you inspired every step of the way. I do that by offering individual and group therapy as well as speaking to groups to inform others about mental wellness and inspiring others towards positive change.

I love working with women to navigate complicated belief patterns, emotions, and behaviors. Some concerns I assist with include; depression, anxiety, obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, and thoughts and feelings related to trauma. I also enjoy assisting people work through LGBT topics, multicultural issues, low motivation, and thoughts of death. I would be more than happy to speak with you to answer any questions about what to expect from therapy, any insurance questions, and what I could offer you.

I'm so excited that you're here! Wanting change is really hard and finding a good fit can be even more difficult, not to mention scary. This is why I offer free consultations at no cost or risk to you in order for us to meet and figure out if I'm the best person to work with you. Call or email to see what Actualized Counseling and Community can do for you.
