Therapists in Saint Martinville, LA

I provide an accepting, non-judgmental environment for those seeking help and understanding for the struggles that life brings us. I provide forensic counseling services in the form of child custody evaluations, parenting coordination, court ordered counseling, and divorce counseling. I also work with adults and children who have concerns regarding severe mental illness and dual diagnosis (addiction and a mental illness). Those with anxiety conditions, depression, and adjustment disorders are also welcome in my practice.

As a mostly Adlerian therapist, I will help clients to explore their behavior patterns which may be interfering with attaining their goals. In order to do this, together we will examine each individual's readiness for change, how fear/anxiety plays a role in keeping them from changing behaviors and explore interpersonal/family relationships. To facilitate the most insight and emotional growth as possible for clients, my goal is to create a comfortable, non-judgemental and confidential environment. Through this environment and exploration clients will be better able to set and attain healthy goals and lifestyles.

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. I now offer EMDR via Telehealth.

I'm Courtney Copell, founder of Compass Counseling Services of South Louisiana. It is my mission to provide the best and most thorough care to my clients and their families. I work from an integrated perspective which includes a wide-range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques. I founded my practice on the belief that each client is unique and deserves comprehensive and individualized care. I believe that in order to experience optimal health, every component of the individual must be considered. Therefore, I operate from a holistic and client-centered approach where each client will have their own personalized program.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with years of expertise and passion in my field. I believe that healing take place from within and will work to facilitate that through a variety of approaches. At the Integrated Wellness Clinic, we feel that each person needs support and freedom to choose their own path. Healing from the suffering caused by addiction, mental health, trauma, eating disorders, obsessive sexual behavior, and other co-occurring conditions is not simply about managing life; it is about transforming it. At IWC, we support this trans formative work with approaches that strengthen and nurture mind, body and spirit.

Creative Family Solutions empowers individuals to make good choices, reclaim self esteem, trust others and achieve goals in the home and in the educational and judicial systems.

When I think of myself as a Counselor, I envision providing unconditional positive regard and "Good Old Fashion" Southern Louisiana Hospitality to clients. Based on the client's individualized needs, I practice the eclectic approach to guide them through the healing process.
