Depression Therapists in Mid-City, New Orleans, LA

Thank you for your interest! My practice is full right now, and I can't accept new clients. Are you living your best life? Being your best self? Therapy can help you overcome the limitations of the past, and support you in achieving your fullest potential. As a certified practitioner of mind-body medicine, I believe therapy is a collaborative process which can be used to promote self-care and self-healing. A famous quote says that even though our eyebrows are on our face, we can't see them without the help of a mirror. As a therapist, I strive to be the mirror that allows you to see your true self.

With offices on the northshore and southshore ​our counselors at Lakeshore understand that sometimes we find ourselves walking through life without direction or purpose. Through working with you to create a plan that addresses your needs and your desires we will help lead you to better relationships, improved health, and regaining personal connections in life. Through counseling, you can imagine a better life for yourself and those you love.

I work best with healthy people who want to take their life, relationships, goals etc to the next level. I prefer clients who are committed to honesty and enjoy exploring their fullest potential.I use many different types of therapy including Gestalt therapy. Gestalt therapists work on helping to reprogram self-sabotaging patterns and belief systems. This work can be applied to improving relationships, health, motivation, goal achievement, and self-actualization. It is a very gentle process and results are fast and dynamic! I am also trained in Psychedelic harm reduction and integration.

It is my belief that therapy is a collaborative effort between client and counselor. Therefore, during our sessions we will work together to define your goals, illuminate critical issues, and explore specific patterns of behavior, emotions, and feelings. Our work together begins as we sift through your past and present relationships, family dynamics, and important life themes. As a resource for processing, I can offer you insight, suggestions, and encouragement towards achieving your goals. I believe that if you understand the feelings behind your beliefs you will achieve clarity to make different choices. Together we will develop strategies to faciltate change.

At the Uptown Counseling Center, we provide expert treatment for Eating Disorders, Addictive and Substance Abuse Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Depressive Disorders, and Couples/Relational Therapy. Our staff is here to help you enjoy your better life.

I have 20 years experience working with adults, children, and families. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques, including cognitive/behavioral therapy, insight oriented treatment, and solution focused counseling. I am also trained in EMDR which helps clients to process trauma memories and often helps when a client feels "stuck" in a particular phase of therapy. I have worked as an Early Intervention Specialist in the school system for 19 years. I have extensive training in play therapy, using both directive and non-directive techniques

Recovery of any form is a part of the human condition. As a therapist, I look at recovery as a journey that I assist in. I work with folks who are wanting to learn more about themselves, and further a personal recovery identity. This includes (but is not exclusive too), eating disorders and substance use disorders.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I provide individual holistic psychotherapy and mind-body skills training (guided imagery, meditation, relaxation, mindfulness, etc). In addition to providing counseling using a wellness approach (rather than the medical model), I also use mind-body skills training to help clients move towards personal growth and stress reduction and to better cope with transition and developmental processes. My theoretical approach to counseling is somewhat eclectic, but largely humanistic, existential, and integrative. I work with clients on examining and building upon the whole person holistically.

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS - FACE TO FACE AND THELETHERAPY. The innovations of our modern world bring new forms of stress while intensifying those which already exist. Hours of the day are spent in grueling stop and go traffic, and to advance one's education or career often requires uprooting from what is known and setting up in a completely new place. People are working more hours than ever before, while cost of living, overpopulation, and globalization heighten the stress of just trying to get by. With change comes the pain of adapting to the way the world is now, often so different from just a few short years ago.

As a therapist, it is my belief that everyone deserves to have a safe empathic, non- judgmental environment to which they can begin to better understand themselves and others. Therapy provides the opportunity for growth and change and eventually, a better understanding of one's self. This process is a collaboration to discover the desired lifestyle and happiness we all want. I offer a non judgmental warm supportive environment to help my clients process and express themselves.

I am Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Louisiana. I obtained a Masters of Art degree from Our Lady of Holy Cross College in New Orleans. I believe that counseling is a tool that assist individuals and families with exploring solutions for life issues and developing a plan of action that will facilitate that change. Change is possible no matter what the situation if you are willing to do the work. I would like to assist by facilitating the process of change with you and your family.

You're tired of pretending to be someone that you're not. To stay closeted, to protect your family, to avoid the weird questions about your sex life... Because you were taught that it's not okay to be lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender, or queer. It feels like there is no place in this world for you. How could they accept you now? Religion depicts you as inferior or sinful. People in the family and at work say horrible things about LGBTQ people, and sometimes you feel ashamed, isolated, or guilty. Confusion and anxiety are dominating your life, but really- you just want to be accepted for who you are.

You are not alone. Sometimes we need someone else to see us, hear us, hold space for us, and help us find clarity or ease pain. Prioritizing yourself and your mental well being is one of the bravest things you can do. Therapy can help you regain your sense of self, adjust better to changes, and find the support needed to thrive. As an Adlerian practitioner I believe that, as unique individuals, people should be validated, feel connected, and made to feel significant. Therapy sessions focus on the entire individual, not just the parts that need improvement.
