Tiesha Burnett, LPC

Hi, I’m Tiesha Burnett, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) at Compassionate Edge Counseling & Consulting in Naperville, Illinois. If you’ve found your way here, chances are you've been carrying something that feels heavy for too long, and you're ready for change. Trauma, anxiety, grief, or painful patterns may have left you feeling disconnected from yourself or others, and no matter how hard you try, it can feel difficult to break free.

First, I want you to know there’s nothing “wrong” with you. Your nervous system has been doing its best to protect you after too much too soon, too much for too long, or not enough for too long.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Christian therapist, I offer a safe, compassionate, judgment-free space where healing can begin. Clients often tell me they feel truly heard, supported, and encouraged without pressure. For those who desire it, I also provide faith-integrated counseling, weaving in prayer, Scripture, and spiritual resources.

In our work, I draw on evidence-based therapies that integrate mind and body. I primarily use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which allows your brain to process painful memories so they no longer carry the same weight or emotional intensity. I also incorporate DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) to strengthen emotion regulation and relationship skills, and ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) to help you reconnect with your values and take meaningful steps forward.

Clients who come to me for trauma recovery, anxiety, grief, stress, or relationship challenges often notice real changes: better sleep, fewer triggers, stronger relationships, less shame, and a renewed sense of self-compassion. Most importantly, they begin to feel like themselves again. They are living, not just surviving.

Trauma may be part of your story, but it doesn’t define your future. You’ve already shown resilience by making it this far. Together, we can help you reclaim your voice, restore your hope, and build a life you feel connected to.

I provide therapy for individuals and families throughout Naperville, Aurora, and across Illinois via telehealth.
