UnitedHealthcare UHC | UBH Therapists in Central Business District, New Orleans, LA

If you are at a place where you are experiencing some difficulties in life, you do not have to stay in that place. I am here to help you work through some of the demands life may throw at you. I create a judgment- free environment that is safe for you to learn and understand some of the changes that you are facing. I have always had a desire to help people since I was a small child. As a young adult my interest began to grow towards the helping profession. I utilize evidence-based practices that focus on exploring and understanding how you arrived at the place you are now, with the goal of achieving the changes you desire.

My work experience has allowed me to collaborate with several different types of clients, giving me a broader view of mental health and how many of the issues we face are intertwined. My main focus is helping people get through life's problems from childhood to present day. If you feel like life has not dealt you the best hand of cards, I want to work with you through those difficult and uncomfortable thoughts/emotions to make you the best version of yourself. Some specialty groups that I counsel are mothers, teachers, couples, students, and the LGBTQ community.

He who has a why to live can bear any how. Many of us are in some form of suffering, and this can derail us from a meaningful life. Learning how to live with our pain so as to gain purpose and meaning is a true endeavor. From a collaborative process, I help my clients to establish what purpose they seek and discover ways to validate our pain, learning to control rather than being controlled by our fears, depression, et cetera. Through therapeutic interventions, we can learn to accept how we think, feel, and act. Subsequently allowing us the opportunity to discover new areas for growth and healing.

Are you desiring a healthy life? Do your needs include coping skills, processing traumatic events, and moving beyond depression, anxiety, and fear? Is your goal living a life unaffected by mental health challenges? Is your desire to improve your life? If so, you're in the right place!

Hello, thank you for visiting my page. Therapy is a very intimate yet necessary process in order to change negative dynamics in life. I approach therapy through engagement and fostering relationships. My approach is conversational, positive, and process based. I cater to individuals struggling with the realities of their life. Whether its stress from work or relationships, bullying at school, trauma from assault, or anxiety from your environment; I will assist you with processing those issues while strengthening your esteem and perspective.

Are you concerned with your child’s communication skills? Are you fearful of the transitions your child is going through? Those concerns and fears are common. It takes strength and patience to be a parent of a child with behavioral issues. I create a safe environment to address the behavioral challenges life presents as your child evolves through the developmental stages of life. When working with you and your child, I will develop a unique treatment plan with emphasis placed on your child’s strengths.

Struggling is not shameful, and it takes courage to acknowledge and attend to those needs. When you are ready, I'm here to help you clarify, understand, process, and connect the pieces of the unique puzzle that is your life. I look forward to working collaboratively to build an individualized treatment plan to move toward your established goals. I'm experienced working with diverse clients in residential and community settings. I approach counseling from an integrative, holistic perspective leaning upon existential principles. I am currently accepting new clients, providing teletherapy only.
