Therapists in New Orleans, LA

How you see yourself might be deeply influenced by the emotional distress, negative thought patterns, or destructive and addictive behaviors you struggle with. As a Holistic Health Practitioner, I believe these conditions cover up, rather than define, who you truly are. My unique approach to holistic health and wellness encourages a balanced integration of the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of your wellbeing. I'd like to support you in creating optimal conditions for the safe, mindful, and deep exploration of your innate capacity for self-healing and radical transformation.

My approach to counseling is holistic and based on the client's needs. I use methodology from humanistic psychology, person-centered therapy, psychodynamic theory and cognitive behavioral therapy. I help clients identify hidden strengths and discover obstacles to a more meaningful life. I work with the client on building an authentic therapeutic relationship where the client is seen as the expert in her/his own life. I do this in a compassionate, safe, and nonjudgmental process. I am effective in working with people who seek short-term, solution-focused therapy as well as longer-term therapeutic goals.

Currently I am still exclusively practicing virtually. I work with my clients from a humanistic perspective and enjoy getting to know each client over time. The therapeutic relationship is sacred and I am honored to have so many long-term clients who utilize therapy sessions not only for deeper issues and stresses, but also for continual support. My clients appreciate my dedication to their overall mental and emotional health.

Currently in private practice in both Louisiana and Rhode Island, I offer individual therapy and psychological assessment to adults. Whether you have a problem to solve, goals to achieve or need emotional support, therapy can offer a safe space for an individual to disclose information and receive supportive, non-judgmental feedback, while learning skills to improve yourself. I am best suited to help you with mood difficulties, such as depression; self-esteem and identity problems; stress and anxiety; substance abuse problems; employment struggles; and relationship problems.

Often we seek therapy when our natural tools alone can't support us anymore. Maybe life has thrown something too big at us, or we have suffered silently for too long. I work collaboratively with clients to move towards personal growth, stress reduction and improved coping techniques. Through compassion and clinical tools I partner with clients to manage life transitions and navigate developmental processes. I work to create a safe, empowering space for my clients. It's an environment where I believe we are best positioned to access insight, strengthen our resilience, and build readiness for change.

Struggling is not shameful, and it takes courage to acknowledge and attend to those needs. When you are ready, I'm here to help you clarify, understand, process, and connect the pieces of the unique puzzle that is your life. I look forward to working collaboratively to build an individualized treatment plan to move toward your established goals. I'm experienced working with diverse clients in residential and community settings. I approach counseling from an integrative, holistic perspective leaning upon existential principles. I am currently accepting new clients, providing teletherapy only.

Welcome! I am here to help you work through life's tough transitions and emotional difficulties. I provide an approach based in acceptance, but I also find it important to be direct and give concrete solutions and responses to my clients. I use many different treatment modalities, dependent on what best fits you and your needs. I have specialized training in cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed care. I also recently obtained certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) as a specialist for women struggling with mood while pregnant through postpartum and beyond.

I enjoy working with people who are often considered outsiders, those challenge the established norms of our society, in their pursuit of a more holistic future for themselves and our world. This includes activists, educators, artists, fellow mental health professionals, writers, musicians, and those who live in ways unique to themselves. A throughline of my work revolves around the realm of disabilities, many of which remain unrecognized by others. I believe that disability advocacy requires working through issues of power, autonomy, social inequality, and environment.

If you are currently going through struggles in life or hitting some obstacles, know that it's normal and it happens to all of us at various times. Anxiety and depressive symptoms often arise as a result. The question is, how are you coping? Sometimes without being aware of it, we develop destructive coping mechanisms by masking or shoving things down. With over 20 years of experience I help guide clients towards healthier tools to live a more functional and fulfilling life, and improve relationships along the way. Above all else the key component centers around self care, learning to take care of you.

Mental clarity, emotional well-being, and inhabiting your body are birthrights. You claim them. Many of our struggles reflect external transgressions and neglect by others, society, life, or our trauma-clouded time. All readily unbalance us. I approach psychotherapy collaboratively, aiding you in fortifying the rigor and vitality of your overall health. Please invite me to serve you, creating the change you envision.

Life as Art Studio was conceived to help individuals, families, groups and organizations find their truth, find their voice. The mission is to work together to unearth talents and unblock creativity. To do so I use primarily action methods through my extensive training in psychodrama. The belief is that most of us need to increase our spontaneity in order become more authentic, true to who we really are. We may suffer because we have lost or never found who that true self is. Maybe we have been taught to think we must be some one else's idea of who and how we should be in the world.
