Let's face it, you're stressed. Second guessing yourself, perhaps? Dealing with imposer syndrome? Are you finding it hard to navigate what life is bringing you? Are your relationships suffering? Handling these issues on your own can make them seem impossible to conquer. You don’t have to do it alone. I see counseling as a process in which we come to understand and trust one another, and work as a team to explore and define problem situations, develop future goals for an improved life, and work in a systematic fashion towards achieving those goals.

Life often throws stressors at us at the most random times. We end up losing sight of ourselves within the stress and chaos. My goal is to assist you through such stressors, and eventually overcome them. Whether, this is going through a life-altering event, overcoming trauma, or just finding ways to manage your life, I am committed to helping you find that happiness at the end.

I strive to help my clients find peace, comfort, and self-love that will guide them in life.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or defeated by life’s challenges? Do relationships with toxic people leave you feeling anxious, emotionally drained, angry, or miserable? Maybe you feel unloved, sad, or lonely and unable to enjoy your life. You could be experiencing persistent worry or stuck in your emotions, and problems may seem unsolvable.

Greetings! Everyone faces adversity in life. The good news is that I can support as you navigate through grief, life transitions, and trauma. I would like to work with you as you learn how to display the overcomer that has been buried under the many stressors of life. In Louisiana, we have survived hurricanes and recovery/rebuilding, the effects of the pandemic, and so much more. These experiences teach you how strong and resilient you are yet it can be hard to maintain healthy thoughts, habits and emotions. Daily responsibilities can overwhelm you when there is so much to juggle.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
