We keep each session as comfortable and casual as possible. Soon, what feels like a regular conversation will, in fact, be therapeutic.
The Zen Den Counseling Center was created by Licensed Professional Counselor Matthew Zupko, LPC, NCC, CCATP, after many years in the mental health profession.
After spending some time engaged in other career pursuits, Matt found that listening to co-workers about their troubles was making a difference in their lives. This led to the idea that a career change may NCC, be worth exploring.
Following enrolling in a Masters program in Counseling at Seton Hall University, (where his BA was obtained), this new venture was underway. Matt began working in the mental health field in 2007 by working directly with adults whose mental illness prevents them from living independently. What many consider to have severe and persistent mental illnesses. Several years working with this population helped to develop an appreciation and respect for the unique challenges faced by those he worked with on a daily basis.
With licensing came the opportunity to counsel individuals, families, couples, and groups. This led to working with other therapists at a practice helping those in the community who are in need, with a population ranging from those who were homeless to those with a high income.
Several years later, Matt decided to leave this practice to form The Zen Den Counseling Center as a way to provide attention to the needs of those who prefer remote therapy to in person sessions. Matt has the most experience working with adults with anxiety and depression.
We may be adding additional therapists in the future. Currently the number of clients seen at one time is limited.
