Therapists in New Orleans, LA

I have been practicing as a psychotherapist for 30 years and I very much enjoy my work. My goal is to help people with healing, and in so doing help them to live a more joyful and meaningful life. I have years of experience helping clients address and recover from many different issues. I work with emotional wounds that are often at the core of issues that clients bring to me, and with healing trauma including religious trauma. I have found that when these wounds can be addressed in a safe environment, healing can take place. I work with adults of all life stages, with adolescents, children, with individuals, families and groups.

Sarah Zoghbi is an internationally trained psychotherapist who provides a psychodynamic approach to therapy with ancient and holistic healing modalities for adults (individuals and groups) experiencing a range of personal and interpersonal issues including trauma & complex trauma, emotional instability, anxiety, depression, identity development, relationships & life transitions, and compulsive behaviors including substance dependence. Sarah works with her clients to cultivate a significant trusting relationship and safe space to welcome honesty with oneself, illuminate depths of consciousness, and explore new ways of being.

Therapy can be a powerful way to achieving happiness, acceptance and greater life satisfaction. As a trauma therapist, I approach each client and couple with compassion, empathy and value the unique life experience of my clients. Sessions honor each person's needs and comforts, helps the individual understand, gain insight and work through issues. I draw from psychodynamic, attachment, and somatic therapies. Coming from a strengths based perspective, fostering resilience is an important part of my practice. I hope clients can expand on what's already working and learn the skills and insight necessary to meet their goals.

You are not just your struggles! I believe anyone can achieve wellness with therapy acting as your guide along the way. My goal is to get to know the whole you while building a therapeutic relationship with mutual respect and collaboration. I acknowledge that life can be tough and believe that the beauty in humanity is that we are not perfect. So let's tailor your therapy just for the unique individual that you are! I find it intrinsically healing and revealing to use techniques that are interesting to you such as making art, listening to music, mindfulness meditation, clay works etc.

I tailor traditional therapies with the latest research and techniques to deliver individualized and effective treatment.

When life is distressing, overwhelming, or seemingly even impossible, you don't have to hold it on your own. Personal growth is rooted in relationships where we risk moving towards the discomfort that arises at our edges. Finding the right therapist to support you through this process can make all the difference.

We all have problems, habits and "quirks" of personality and wonder sometimes when life gets rough, whether we need therapy or if it would be a good option. When life is getting on top of you, when you begin to feel strong emotions that you didn't know that you had, when you feel lost or hopeless or just want to reach your full potential, then give yourself a chance to seek a new solution. I can help. I believe that each individual is creative and unique and that there is no "one" way to be happy or live life. For New Orleans I offer virtual, telehealth appointments & EMDR and Gottman Relationship Counseling.

Stress-related health issues ? Overworking to get ahead yet falling further behind in relationships ? My roots of many years in the medical field as a digestive disease and bariatric nutritionist taught me that mis-managed stress(food, drink, media ,substance, overwork) ravages our bodies and our relationships. But.... can be turned around! I have helped countless individuals and couples change problematic thoughts, destructive behavior patterns to improve relationships and health. Sharing your fears and story with someone who understands your medical health, genetics, and self-care will provide a holistic solution.

Academic burnout: where your motivation is not just on vacation – it's taken an indefinite leave of absence. Maybe you are way past the point of even humor. Are you a student, doctor, lawyer or professor working in academia or the field who is just DONE? I specialize in helping academics, intellectuals, and high-net worth individuals get their spark back. I truly understand how demotivating the systems that you operate in can be, because I have lived them myself, and because I hear stories every day that most people wouldn’t even think about sharing with anybody. Or, maybe something in your personal life is dominating your focus.

The past several years have been so difficult. It is important to recognize now more than ever that we possess the innate ability for inner peace and calm even in the face of fearing the unknown. Psychotherapy is an exploration of what is blocking people from fully realizing their fullest potential, genuine happiness and fulfillment. Anxiety, depression and other "mental health issues" are often rooted in a deeper desire to be understood, to be seen, and to accomplish one's life purpose. A strong psychotherapeutic alliance can help to unlock our natural abilities that are hidden beneath our fears and limiting beliefs.
