I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Louisiana with over seven years of experience in mental health counseling. I approach therapy from a person-centered lens but integrate other counseling styles based on each clients’ individual need. I employ a collaborative approach where I work with clients to explore and define their problems as each client provides invaluable insight into their own life. I am committed to assisting clients in pushing past their fears and gaining new perspectives that will enhance their life, bring new insights, hope, and meaning.

Are you wanting to work on yourself, but you have no idea where to really start? You have come to the right place! I have worked with clients who are struggling with a variety of issues, including: anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, stress, relationship issues, panic, life changes, anger, parenting, and body image struggles. I am passionate about working with grief, particularly survivors of suicide loss. There is nothing like seeing my clients make positive changes in their lives and reaching goals that they didn’t think were possible. My true wish is that you show up as yourself every session!

Hey there! My name is Shea D’Amico and I firmly believe counseling can empower you for the better and would love to help you navigate your journey. I approach counseling from a compassionate, understanding, and patient standpoint as it is very important to me that you feel understood and heard in a safe and trusting environment.

I have an interest in working with adult individuals who are faced with a variety of stressors and concerns. I draw upon several theories and treatment modalities in my work. Research suggests and professional experience highlights the centrality of the relationship between the patient/client and therapist in achieving the best results. Keeping this in mind, I see this journey as a partnership where we explore your concerns in a safe and accepting environment.

I believe we all have the ability to achieve the goals & desires we have for ourselves. We just need to be equipped with the right tools to do so. I work best with clients who are interested in exploring foundational pieces to foster understanding on the path to change.

Counseling is not just an educational endeavor for me, it is my true life’s passion. As my primary spiritual/natural gift, my purpose on earth is to utilize my counseling skills to serve others in any capacity that I can. We have all felt sad, angry, lonely, misunderstood, unforgiven, misused, abused, fed up, and so on and so forth. Our goal in therapy would be to examine your emotional well being and how it impacts your life. While you process through everything from past trauma to current conflicts, it is significant to know that your growth and healing is what is most important to me.

I want to help you. My name is Rick Jackson and I have 14 years of experience with a wide variety of issues and concerns. Many people struggle from time to time with a variety of mental and emotional issues. One of the best assets a therapist can have is listening. I will utilize that skill to help provide guidance as we begin to develop the goals you want to achieve in therapy.

I help adults who want breakthroughs in their individual lives or in their complicated family. Adulting requires problem-solving skills, including mastering emotions that may threaten to overwhelm us. I help individuals and couples who are ready to tolerate the anxiety of making changes in their own perspectives and behavior. Others may struggle with unwelcome changes (break-ups, losing a job, stepfamily issues) and need strategies to move forward with purpose and peace. I can help you, too. Although I highly value the intimacy of in-office sessions, I also offer Zoom sessions.

Now accepting new clients and referrals! It is my mission to provide clients with a safe, supportive, and confidential environment that promotes emotional, psychological and relational health.

It takes courage to ask for help, especially from someone you don't know.

Are you a mother feeling overwhelmed? Are you currently pregnant and navigating these intense emotions as you prepare to bring home baby? Are you a new mom and have met some difficult challenges? Was your birth experience not what you expected? Perhaps you are a new dad adjusting to life with a baby. Maybe you are looking for support through the journey of infertility and loss. If you can identify with any of these scenarios and have begun the search for counseling services, know how brave you already are. You will be met without judgement and limitless compassion as you embark on your journey into new parenthood wellness.

Let's face it, life can be stressful. That stress can become even more pronounced as you navigate new transitions like becoming an adult, moving to a new city, starting a new job, or leaving a relationship. Often times we have the answer but just need help sorting things out. Sometimes family and friends can be too close to help you identify your challenges. Sometimes THEY are the challenge. Working and trying to manage day-to-day responsibilities is no simple task. This is why I a firm believer in therapy.

With 10+ years of experience, I work with clients with a variety of mental health needs. I work with children as young as 3 in play-based therapy, addressing anxiety, behavioral issues, parenting needs and familial transitions. I also work with couples exploring pre-marital counseling, marriage counseling, separation/divorce or co-parenting. I work with teens struggling with anxiety or depression as they navigate the realms of social media and pressures of GenZ. I also see many adult clients 1:1 who just need extra support in this season of life: whether from work stressors or family conflict or just wanting better mental wellness.

Life can be difficult and complex, leaving us feeling stuck and alone. When these challenges affect our mental health it is difficult to make the decision to get the needed assistance, you do not have to deal with your struggles alone. Whether that looks like depression, anxiety, trauma, loss, or everyday life, my hope is to provide you with professional, competent, compassionate, and non-judgmental support to help you get through whatever life throws your way. All you need is the want to do it and we can work through this journey together.

I take an eclectic approach and use a blend of Cognitive Behavioral, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Solution Focused, Reality Based, and psycho-education to individuals age 5 and up. My theory is that when people have hope and can learn to challenge and replace irrational thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes, people are free to experience change.

I am a trauma informed Licensed Professional Counselor trained in EMDR to work with those whose lives have become difficult due to trauma, relationship distress, and self-worth issues. My approach to counseling is grounded in a interpersonal-neurobiological perspective (IPNB). Which means I strive to understand how the brain, mind, & spirit are all affected by past & current pain. I want to come to know who you really are, not who your pain has distorted you to be.
