Therapists in New Orleans, LA

Most of my clients are ordinary people who have been sexually abused as children or adults, or are from alcoholic families, or are struggling with alcoholism in their current life. They may be having difficulty adjusting to changing circumstaaances in their lives due to divorce or loss of a family member or friend. Many of my clients are experiencing depression or anxiety or chronic worry.

I provide empathy & compassion to create a safe space for people to heal. Together we create a therapeutic relationship that allows for creativity & reflection. The human psyche can be a rather dark place. I shine light on areas that need attention. Ultimately, this helps us learn what is needed for you to grow & thrive. I have worked in shelters for unhoused teenagers & families, correctional facilities, organizations for survivors of domestic violence & sexual assault & on the behavioral health unit at a hospital for children & teenagers. I focus on psycho-somatic practices to bring balance into the lives of my clients.

These last few years have presented many challenges for everyone. Depression, anxiety, addiction, grief and other issues are on a rise. It is not always easy to make the decision to reach out for therapy. However, therapy can help and support a person through what they are experiencing. Change is not easy; it takes courage to change and you do not have to face it alone. I have worked in acute care for many years with adults, elderly, children and adolescents. I feel confident to work with many mental health issues.

I am steadfast in the belief that there is always hope, and that there are no paths taken that can’t be redirected. Please join me as we discover your process of healing together. A native of New Orleans, I hold a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling from Holy Cross University. I am currently a PLPC working under the supervision of April Ivy, LPC-S. After taking some personal time to focus on family and motherhood, I am thrilled to be back seeing clients again.

You may be finding it difficult to self-regulate your emotions, behaviors, and/or attention, which is negatively impacting your relationships, performance at work or school, and overall health and well-being. You may struggle with people pleasing, perfectionism, procrastination/avoidance, or isolation. These behaviors were developed to protect yourself from internalized shame and guilt, but ultimately you feel burned out, exhausted, and unfulfilled. This is not how you want to live. You want to understand and accept yourself, create more balance, and feel more empowered in your daily life.

Since 2009, I have worked with college age and older adults to confront and manage struggles surrounding depression, anxiety, identity confusion, and trauma. We work collaboratively often using dreams and creative projects to gain deeper understanding of the unconscious. All of our work is approached with the presumption that there is an intelligence within that ultimately knows what is best for you, but this wisdom is often concealed by overwhelming emotions, grief, toxic relationships, self-defeating behaviors and thought patterns.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Board Approved Clinical Supervisor with 21 years of mental health experience, and have a law degree. I treat a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression and bi-polar depression, relationship issues and couple's counseling, and family mediation.

Hi! I am a Licensed Psychologist from Lafayette, LA based in New Orleans. I offer evidence-based, affirming, and trauma-informed therapy and psychological assessment services for individuals (18+) and relationships.

You have felt disconnected from your partner from a while now. Maybe you keep having the same old arguments with no resolution. Maybe you have drifted and have not had a real conversation because everything feels bigger than you can handle by yourselves. Maybe you feel stuck or lost or even unable to identify what is wrong with your relationship or how it really started. It can be so painful and disheartening to find that the person you loved is unreachable and the more you want to reconnect, the more difficult it seems.

Are you suffering or having a hard time coping? Do your feelings or behaviors feel out of control? Has your relationship lost that spark or is tension increasing? Often, our attempts to manage our stress and pain can end up creating more pain for us. In therapy, I will provide a space that is safe and free of judgment, so we can work together to explore the changes you envision for yourself and your relationships. Change can be scary but we will build off the strengths and resources you already have that make change feel possible.

Are overwhelm, overthinking, rigidity, & avoidance shaping your daily life? Is irritability, low self worth, fatigue, and procrastination keeping you in a cycle you want to break? Integrative mental health care can help you overcome these challenges and live a fuller, more authentic life. I work best with clients who want to unearth and correct the contributing factors keeping them stuck, from limiting thoughts and beliefs to self-sabotaging habits and behaviors.

Clients who work best with me are curious and open. They're ready for a deep dive in self-discovery in order to ditch the old patterns that hold them back. Many of my clients are currently (or prepping for) exploring ethical non-monogamy. Others may be navigating big life changes, like pregnancy, graduating college, or a big move. My clients are eager to feel confident, fulfilled, and fully alive. Together, we will navigate towards stability, confidence, and excitement in your life and relationships!

Have you found yourself feeling just plain stuck? Are you curious about building a deeper sense of self awareness, perhaps an ability to connect more thoughtfully in your relationships? Life can get busy and it's easy for self care and the care of our relationships to fall by the wayside. Our work together may look like processing past trauma, exploring dysfunctional patterns or navigating life transitions. Clients I work with can benefit not only from gaining understanding as to why they get stuck in unproductive patterns but also by identifying tangible ways they can practice healthier alternatives moving forward.

I am a Jungian-informed, credentialed music therapist who has been working in the mental health field for 10 years. I believe that the most effective therapist serves as a guide to help participants connect to their innermost thoughts, feelings, and values. I am interested in empowering participants to discover and understand their unique qualities so that they may lead lives of meaning. I utilize the therapeutic relationship to explore attachment patterns in order to help participants understand their own relational adaptations and needs.
