Therapists in Monroe, LA

I have over 13 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families, and I teach the practice and research of marriage and family therapy at a local university as an associate professor. I firmly believe that you are doing the best you can and your struggles do not define who you are, and my focus is on helping you pinpoint what is keeping you from having satisfying relationships and achieving your full potential. In close consultation with you, I aim to help you devise strategies to improve your life quality and satisfaction.

I work with those suffering from alcoholism and addiction who seek to be free from the personal hell created from it. The goal is to be free from that addictive relationship and form new healthy relationships. Professional literature demonstrates most successful results in treating addiction/alcoholism comes from working in groups with other alcoholics/addicts. However, many struggle with anxiety in group settings and need individual attention before feeling comfortable in a group. I can help.

I have experience working with depression and anxiety, including those who worry constantly and those with phobias. I have worked with various types of trauma. Some examples are those with a history of abuse (sexual, physical, emotional) childhood, adult relational, and bullying victims.

I am an individual, couple, and family therapist with more than 30 years experience helping people find solutions to problems in living. I teach people how to be effective therapists at a local university graduate program as well as conducting workshops around the world and publishing extensively on how to help therapists be effective in helping people improve their marital, family, and business relationships. My private practice is intentionally small and individualized - My personal ethics are such that first interviews are designed for the client to have an opportunity to meet with me and decide if they think I can help them, and equally important, for me to decide if I think I can be of help. If I cannot help I will fire myself and recommend an appropriate referral. I do not accept insurance.

Utilizing a collaborative approach, I’m passionate about helping Individuals develop and embrace a strong sense of autonomy. I firmly believe that only you can give yourself permission to live the life you desire. I work in a transformational manner to restructure negative thoughts and behaviors in effort to increase confidence, self-awareness, and control over one's own life. Throughout the therapeutic process, I maintain that the client is the expert of themselves. I promote open dialogue and demonstrate unconditional positive regards towards all. ​
