Therapists in Hammond, LA
Hi there! I'm Kristen, and my interest is people. I love getting to know about other's passions, feelings, attitudes, and ideas. And that's exactly what brought me to therapy! I get excited when others are looking to explore their own lives for ways to improve, no matter how small. I work well with clients who ruminate and tend to get caught in the vicious cycles of depression and anxiety by examining daily behaviors and thoughts. I like to be direct to maximize productivity in our time together, but will always treat you with the respect and compassion we all deserve. I'm always open to collaboration, feedback, and creativity.

For women that are searching for deeper healing and holistic approaches, I'm here for you! Whether you've experienced therapy before or are starting new, I applaud you for taking this significant step into your healing. Over the years I've worked with many women of all ages struggling from trauma, stress, depression, and anxiety. By utilizing different interventions informed by neuroscience and spiritual/energy practices, we will not only surpass the "thinking" part of the brain that holds the key to true healing but also gain access to your creativity and intuition!

Welcome — I’m glad you’re here.
I believe healing happens when we feel safe, seen, and supported. My approach to therapy is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all solution — instead, I work with you to understand what you’re going through and how we can help you move toward lasting change. I’m trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Level 1 trained in IFS (Internal Family Systems) therapy. These powerful methods help us gently explore past experiences, emotional patterns, and parts of ourselves that may be stuck or hurting, without judgment or pressure.

When was the last time you smiled, laughed, lived without fear or felt confident and beautiful? Have you remained at the starting line because of fear and distractions? Many are in a constant state of comparison to others and those insecurities prevent the process of moving forward. If you are single, widowed, separated, divorced, and feel depressed, give yourself permission to gain clarity and healing. Allow yourself to live the life you are destined to live! Failing marriages, fear of loving someone again and living with the loss of a loved one are experiences that no one should navigate alone.

We offer counseling, meditation, and fitness training. What sets us apart is a mechanism and results-driven approach that utilizes tactics backed by biology and performance research. All of the validation, empathy, challenging, and investigation of classical counseling is still in play, but there is a drive to conduct action steps framed by scientific understanding, measure for effect, and iterate with feedback from your real-world results.
