Therapy is a space to feel seen and supported while you work toward goals without judgement or pressure. My goal is to create that space for you. Therapy works best when we build a relationship based on trust, honesty, and mutual respect. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on in your life, identify patterns or challenges, and work toward goals that help you feel more grounded and connected to the life you want. I primarily work with teens and adults who may be struggling with self-esteem, anxiety, depression, identity, or life transitions.

I believe every person develops an internal story about themselves that tends to dictate the way they live, how they interpret experiences, and how they respond to life stressors. For various reasons, we can begin to see ourselves as characters in our life stories rather than active agents who are in control of the way our life unfolds. This in turn affects our outlook, thoughts, mood, choices, and relationships.

Trying to manage the stress in our relationships can be overwhelming, frustrating, and painful. Are you questioning the commitment you made, and wondering if things can get any better? Did an event happen causing your relationship to change? Do you want to take the next step in your commitment, but would like to identify strengths and examine potential roadblocks before moving forward? Maybe you're doing well, but could strengthen intimacy, communication, or understanding within your relationship.

I am available for face-to-face sessions as well as through telehealth (i.e. video chat).
Are you the strong one for everyone else but inside you're overwhelmed, anxious, and/or exhausted? Maybe you have ADD/ADHD, struggle to regulate emotions, or feel stuck in similar relationship patterns.
I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Every brain and story is different. Together we tailor tools and support that actually fit you.

We have all faced mounting moments of adversity, trauma, and tragedy. Those moments can cause one to feel rejected, overwhelmed, and hopeless. The stressors of life can cause you to feel like it is too difficult to continue. However, difficult does not mean impossible.

We are wired for connection—and when that connection feels broken, everything can feel off balance. When hurt or disconnection takes hold, it can feel hard to reach yourself or those you love. Anxiety, grief, or conflict may take over, leaving closeness out of reach. In our work together, we’ll explore the roots of these patterns, and build a path back to deeper connection—with yourself and others. Through clinically grounded, emotionally focused therapy, you'll find in our work together that healing isn’t the end point—it’s just the beginning of new ways to live and love.

Designed To Be Free Counseling
Provisional Licensed Professional Counselor, PLPC
Baton Rouge, LA 70809
I offer therapy sessions in-person & via telehealth.
Designed To Be Free Counseling LLC was inspired by a reflection I wrote in 2010: “You cannot cage a bird that is designed to be free.” It came from my own experiences of feeling confined, misunderstood and unable to fully express my authentic self. Over time, I found my voice and embraced being unapologetically me.
This journey shaped the foundation of my practice. I understand self-doubt, feeling undervalued and navigating life alone. This space was created to offer support, empowerment and growth helping individuals rediscover their voice, build strength and break free from what holds them back.

"I don't know what's wrong with me, but I don't feel like myself." Many things can happen in our lives that cause us to feel, "off," or not like we used to be. We may think that we aren't enjoying life as much as we used to, we may find that we are too caught up in our own head to enjoy things we used to enjoy. If you are feeling sad, overwhelmed, anxious, worried, nervous, or having a hard time dealing with changes, therapy can help. Most of us want a life worth living: good relationships with ourselves and others, happiness, and motivation to do things that we want to do. If you're ready to make some changes and start feeling better, call me for a free ten minute consultation to see how I can help you get back on track to feeling better.

In addition to providing clinical supervision and guiding other counselors, I have chosen to return to direct client care because I value the personal connection and healing that happens in therapy. I am trained in EMDR therapy and I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are seeking relief from trauma, anxiety, or overwhelming stress. My approach is trauma-informed, supportive, and practical. I strive to create a safe space where you feel understood and equipped with tools to move forward. EMDR is an evidence-based method that helps clients process difficult experiences in a way that talk therapy alone sometimes cannot.

I offer therapy sessions in-person, off of Bluebonnet, or online via Simple Practice video.
Hi, I’m Kirsten. I work with teens and adults (14+) who are feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in painful patterns, or disconnected from themselves and their relationships. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside while silently struggling with anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, identity concerns, grief, or major life transitions like new parenthood and changing roles. Some come to therapy feeling frustrated because they’ve “tried everything” but still don’t feel better.

You’ve always been the strong one, but lately something feels off. You might not have the words for it yet—just a sense that you’re tired of holding it all together alone.
I work with teens and adults who are carrying a lot, often quietly. Many of my clients seem like they have it together on the outside, but feel anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected underneath—and don’t fully understand why.
In our work, we slow things down, get curious, and start making sense of what’s underneath the pressure, people-pleasing, or emotional numbness.
