Therapists in New Orleans, LA

We all have problems, habits and "quirks" of personality and wonder sometimes when life gets rough, whether we need therapy or if it would be a good option. When life is getting on top of you, when you begin to feel strong emotions that you didn't know that you had, when you feel lost or hopeless or just want to reach your full potential, then give yourself a chance to seek a new solution. I can help. I believe that each individual is creative and unique and that there is no "one" way to be happy or live life. For New Orleans I offer virtual, telehealth appointments & EMDR and Gottman Relationship Counseling.

My 30 years of experience as a psychotherapist in New Orleans, along with my own life experience, has provided me with a solid knowledge base and depth which I bring to my work with young adults and adults.

When you examine your inner feelings, and can talk about them, life is less overwhelming. Therapy can be a powerful and rewarding journey.

My approach to therapy is based on the conviction that our current behaviors are a function of our system and relationships with others.

First, I honor your inquiry into the healing process! Welcome! I have a private practice specializing in trauma and welcome a variety of issues as specified under the "issues" heading. Along with formal education, I have 20 years of experiential learning and growth with professional colleagues and with the experts in the field, the people who have survived events all across the broad spectrum of "trauma" at some time in life. I see people holistically, recognizing the needs of body, mind, and spirit as the key to wellness. I welcome inquiries and consults without obligation--the "fit" is important.

I believe that therapy inspires change by supporting self-awareness, insight, and growth which then impacts and improves one's life. With new insight, clients become aware of better strategies and new solutions when responding to challenges in their life. Goals of therapy can include changing behaviors that are holding you back, healing pain from your past, managing depression and anxiety, building relationship skills, and handling strong emotions such as fear, anger, sadness, and grief, to name just a few.

My ideal clients are those who are seeking to be the best versions of themselves. They are looking for an empowering and inspiring partner to begin their transformative journey.

Clients often come to me feeling "stuck" or "stagnated, others may be grappling with career, relationship or health issues, while some are seeking a "shift" or a re-direction. No matter what their journey, I am supportive and nurturing without enabling and we will act together as a team.
