Alzheimer's Therapists in Louisiana

I enjoy working with a wide range of clients who have unique needs and diverse backgrounds. My clients often struggle with depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and substance abuse. I am especially familiar with opioid abuse and the use of medication-assisted treatment (MAT). I also have experience working with the elderly and their family. My work includes educating their families and caregivers about dementia and how to use various interventions to ease the pain of this disease. I remind their caregivers how to take care of themselves as well.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, and a licensed addiction counselor with over 20 years experience. Life can present many challenges, and how we handle these adversities is the key to who we become and our success. Seeking professional help is the first step to change. Through the years, I have worked with both male and female clients ranging in age from 16 to 85. I have extensive training in substance abuse and co-dependency and over the last ten years enjoyed working with the elderly and their families addressing end of life issues along with dementia.

Clients of all ages beginning at age 4 thru adult enjoy the personal experience of working in a customized cognitive exercise program with a personal brain trainer to experience gains in cognitive function whether it has been lost due to dementia, TBI, learning disabilities, disease, cancer treatments or simply aging. Some clients attend our center weekly just for a tune up to stay sharp and focused. Whatever the need in cognitive function, we will customize a program for you or refer you to a valid resource in our community.

With over 10 years' experience in the mental health field, I have a plethora of experience treating adults, adolescents, and children through a wide variety of life challenges. I have a straightforward, solution-based approach to issues like mood swings, anxiety, and insomnia. I can help you identify negative thought patterns and repetitive behavioral patterns that cause you to struggle. I work with clients to achieve these ends through realistic thinking and effective action. I feel that successful therapy starts with a strong relationship so building good rapport is essential. Our time together is fun, warm, and challenging.

If you are old enough to have received an invitation to join AARP in the mail - a milestone, definitely! - you may find yourself facing issues that are, directly or indirectly, related to aging. Some examples might be preparing for or adjusting to retirement, changing family dynamics, physical declines that can come with or be exacerbated by age, grief over deaths of our peers or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), to name a few. You may well be wanting a robust response to these challenges. After all, quality of life throughout our senior years is what it is all about.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor committed to helping individuals learn how to build healthier relationships with themselves, specializing in grief therapy as well as trauma related issues. My work focuses on as a process in which you, and I, the Counselor, having come to trust one another, work as a team to explore and define present problem issues. I believe in this collaborative approach, realizing future goals that can be developed for improved life in a systematic fashion.

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.

We all feel pressured by the weight of this world; the pain of losing loved ones, aging, the scars of past traumas, low self-esteem, depression and anxiety. The pain resulting from these aspects of the human condition can be mitigated. Would you like to transform into the highest version of yourself, thriving in the face of life's stressors? If so, I would be honored to hold space for you, using evidence-based methods to assist you in gaining inner peace and self-acceptance.

Hi, my name is Nisha Talwar. A brief intro is that I love to challenge my clients, give them a different perspective and help them to see things differently. I would want the clients to empower themselves, make the ability to take responsibility for their actions. I enjoy working with multicultural population and I know we are each unique in some ways whereas share the some commonalities among us. I have worked in the field of mental health for several years with a cross section of the population. I firmly believe that capitalizing on strengths and hidden potentials will facilitate healing and boost confidence

It can be hard to recognize your own dignity and worth when you've experienced things such as trauma, abuse, grief, and life transitions. I've found that identifying the root cause of our problems is vital in our healing journey.

I believe therapy is a collective effort. Together, we will work towards your goals while developing necessary skills to navigate life’s stressors.

Greetings! The hardest thing to do in this world is to live in it. Reaching out for help can feel risky or daunting, especially as life changes around you. Days of seeing what feels "normal" change from moment to moment, experiencing losses and transitions (both welcome and unwelcome), and trying to figure out where you fit in your own story brings on all sorts of Big Emotions. You might feel anxious about navigating another hardship, or depressed at how things have changed. You may be feeling guilt or relief at a big life shift in an unexpected way. How do you process it all and keep going?
