Let's Connect (504) 414-5934

Curiosity is at the heart of the talk therapy process. It invites us to approach our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with a willingness to explore rather than judge. An antidote to shame, curiosity allows us to sit with uncertainty, develop new insights, and heal wounded parts of ourselves with loving attention. I help adults from all backgrounds who feel stuck in painful patterns with self-sabotage, drugs and alcohol, codependent relationships, or broken records of negative thoughts. I have specialized experience with recovery and LGBTQ communities. In-person available in New Orleans, teletherapy available to LA and WA residents.

I offer a trauma-informed approach and years of experience working with acute co-occurring disorders. My therapeutic style blends calm presence, curiosity, and empathy with a willingness to gently challenge you. I work to earn your trust and encourage you to step outside your comfort zone and engage with difficult emotions in the secure space of therapy.

Our sessions won't look like a rote rehashing of your week; they're personally adapted to move you toward your goals (or help you figure out what those are). Leave our time together with increased insight, greater self-agency, and a path forward. Email or call me today to start the process with a 15-minute phone consultation.

We all have parts of ourselves that protect us during stress or trauma (e.g. using, dissociating), but we also have parts that can be rigid and self-critical, creating a tug-of-war of painful patterns. I use interventions to help you get curious about, and provide compassion to, your parts in conflict. I'll help you learn to lead your parts with love and a greater sense of agency.
