I provide individual counseling to kids (as young as 4 years old), teens, and adults.
After being a Mental Health Provider (MHP) in St. Tammany Parish Public Schools from 2011 to 2025, I made the decision to leave the school system and to expand my private practice services to a full-time basis. While working in the school setting, I often realized that there is a lacking for certain referral areas of expertise that would be so helpful to our community. Because of that, I decided to be the referral that I wanted to give others, especially when it comes to: ADHD treatment w/ strategy formation and executive functioning skill building; socio-emotional management of type 1 diabetes; parent training of behavior functions

I work with children, teens, and adults, and for those who wish, I can thoughtfully integrate Christian perspectives and practices into therapy.
Many people recognize that they feel stuck in “survival mode,” but few understand why. Even after months or years of traditional talk therapy, some still feel like their internal alarm system is constantly on guard. For many, it can even feel scary to imagine life any other way. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. When your brain and body have developed strategies to protect you in the past, they may still detect threat in the present. Brain-based strategies can help communicate to both mind and body that you are safe now - and you deserve to feel safe again.

FAQ - About Child Therapy
When does a child need to see a therapist?
Children naturally experience emotional ups and downs. Sometimes, though, they need support from a professional. A child may benefit from therapy if their emotions or behaviors change significantly within a short period of time. For example, if a child usually spends time with friends after school but begins isolating in their room, further inquiry is warranted. Other areas for concern include altered sleep patterns, lack of appetite, intense anger, irritability, or hopelessness, or developmental regression in young children (bedwetting, thumb-sucking).
What can a child therapist help with?
A therapist can help with any difficult experience a child may encounter growing up, including learning problems or anxiety related to school, relationship challenges with friends or parents, bullying, intense emotions or phobias, divorce and family dynamics, or the death of a pet or loved one. A therapist can help children process their experience and develop coping skills in an age-appropriate way
What therapy types are most suitable for children?
Children can benefit from different forms of therapy, including family therapy, parent-child interaction therapy, play therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and exposure therapy, depending on their condition. Play therapy is a great option for younger children who may not be able to fully articulate their feelings. In this approach, kids play with toys and games while a therapist observes and helps the child express their emotions and develop coping skills.
Do I need to attend therapy with my child?
Parents are an integral part of a child’s therapy, but the specifics of their involvement vary. If your child is young, you may attend most or all sessions; if your child is older, you may attend a few sessions or none; sometimes a therapist may ask you to have a session on your own. Whatever the arrangement, you should expect to work collaboratively with the therapist, your child, and your family members to take steps to help support your child.
How can I tell if a therapist is a good fit for my child?
A child needs to feel comfortable opening up about their thoughts and feelings, so if your child feels a sense of comfort, ease, and trust with their therapist, that’s a great sign. In addition, a therapist is a good fit for your child if the two can communicate well together; a clinician should be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and in an age-appropriate manner.
