About Cadyn
Cadyn Burnside is a licensed clinical social worker in South Carolina with 8 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, LGBT-related concerns, anger, and issues tied to parenting and family dynamics.
Cadyn describes his role as backing the person telling their story. He treats people as the experts on their own lives and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps and skills the client can use between meetings.
His approach draws on several evidence-based methods. He uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. He also applies cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Cadyn includes client-centered practices that prioritize the individual's perspective. Dialectical behavior strategies and mindfulness tools are used when emotional regulation and present-moment awareness are helpful. Together these approaches aim to improve coping, reduce reactivity, and support clearer communication.
He has worked with concerns such as addiction, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image, and blended family challenges. Cadyn also addresses attachment issues, adoption and foster care experiences, and complex coping patterns like dissociation and codependency.
People considering work with him are encouraged to review the online therapy options and complete the brief matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often involves setting clear goals, practicing new skills between sessions, and tracking progress to reduce anxiety, depression, or problematic habits.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current emotions and reactions. It can help people understand repeated conflicts, trust issues, or difficulties in close relationships by connecting past patterns to present behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cadyn collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He will adjust techniques over time based on what helps the client make practical changes.
