Female Therapists in New Orleans, LA

I am a Clinical Hypnotist & Reiki Master/Teacher. These modalities are a little bit different than traditional talk therapy. Prior to each session, I encourage an open dialogue. We will pinpoint your exact goals & needs and make a plan. I will also address any questions or concerns you may have before our actual session. Hypnosis is a targeted approach to create long lasting positive change. And Reiki (a form of energy healing) can help restore balance & heal the entire energetic system. My clients typically notice a desirable shift even after just one session.

Hi my name is Carey and I am a LPC in Louisiana. I have extensive knowledge with issues such as : depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, daily stress and ways to cope such as loss of a job, relationship issues, as well as many other common stressors we face today. In this world where we all feel a bit scared at times I believe we ALL could use someone to talk to and my goal is to be that person. My counseling style is person centered. I will let you lead the way on your personal path to self awareness and self growth and help you navigate around any road blocks. Simply put I'd love the opportunity to walk with you on your journey!

I am a self-advocate and activist with over ten years personal and professional social work and community organizing experience. As a Coach and Counselor in Queer and Disability communities I understand the specific structural barriers people with diverse identities face. My approach is an alternative to ABA, Positive Behavior Therapies and other Conversion Therapies because I values you for who you are. I bring a Neurodiversity and Disability pride perspective to coaching and counseling by sharing knowledge of history, theory, and social models.

To paraphrase artist and author Tori Press- I’m here to help hold your balloon until you feel ready to hold it again yourself. No one should have to navigate life's challenges alone (even superheroes have sidekicks). My approach to therapy is solution-focused, person-centered, and holistic. While evidence-based practices and theories have their merit, ultimately you are the expert on your own life. I aim to create a supportive and non-judgmental place where we can discuss your challenges, talk through the hard questions, and work collaboratively to find solutions.

Greetings! My name is Nadra DeMagnus and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from New Orleans, Louisiana. I have been providing psychotherapy and relationship coaching for more than ten years. I have worked with large groups, military families, indigenous people of Alaska, youth and young adults in schools, agency, and private settings, adults, and geriatrics from across these United States of America. Approaches utilized: Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution and Trauma-Focused Therapy.

While using traditional talk therapy, I also incorporate teaching and interactive cognitive restructuring into sessions. I commonly utilize breathe work and other non traditional techniques into therapy. I allow the client to guide the session and their own work, but do not hold back observations about client's thought patterns and potential for growth. I treat all clients with unconditional positive regard and allow them to adapt within their own limits and social dynamics. Clients should always feel as though they have learned skills relevant to daily life.

Hi, I am Laura Whites. I am a licensed clinical social worker helping individuals through grief and loss, disordered eating, body image and self esteem concerns and the challenges that come alongside these issues. I am here to listen to your story and support you on your path towards the behaviors you want and the quality of life you seek.

Do you believe in the power of the mind-body connection and your own innate ability to overcome your health and emotional challenges? Are you looking for balance in your moods, life, nutrition and total happiness? Want to optimize your complete health and wellness? It's uncommon these days to discuss mental health, nutrition and health with a trained professional. Sadly, the common approach to health and wellness is to medicate our ailments, not to create and sustain wellness. As a LMSW, a Certified Integrative Health Coach, and soon to be 200hr RYT, I can support you to achieve of ALL of your health goals.

I approach therapy as a way of making sense of past events, understanding how they inform patterns and behaviors in the present, and using fresh interpretations to facilitate change. This might mean rewiring the brain somewhat by building new narratives around painful memories and negative beliefs, or by nurturing the parts of you that have been wounded by difficult experiences. Growth looks different for everyone, and together we will build a therapeutic plan that acknowledges the complexity of your personal ecosystem.

You’re having a hard time sleeping, your mind is racing, and you’re turning down plans because you can’t handle the anxiety of going somewhere you’ve never been before. You spend way too much time comparing your life to everyone else’s- on social media and IRL. And your relationship? Not going so well. You either have one foot out the door or are panicking that your partner wants to leave you. You’re asking everyone around you for their opinion, but it’s never enough. You've got a stack of self-help books that aren't helping. You can’t figure out why you feel like this and it’s driving you crazy.

*Currently accepting new clients and all appointments will be done via telehealth.* It is possible to have a more peaceful, meaningful life. Together, we can work through your stress, trauma, fears, low self-esteem, and/or relationship challenges. I work with individual adults and older adolescents who want to get more out of their life, their relationships, and/or their work. I approach my work with passion, empathy, and a respect. I excel with clients who are going through transitions or rethinking their path (moving, starting college, graduate school, new career/unfulfilling work, break ups, new parents, and more).

I have years of experience working with young adults, parents/families, and educators to navigate the unique challenges each of these experiences can bring. I support clients in navigating life transitions, identity development, values clarity, emotion regulation, and shame resilience.

By connecting in a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space, clients are able to explore their internal worlds and gain clarity as well as a renewed sense of empowerment in their lives.

I work with my clients on issues related to anxiety, depression, relationship issues and disruptions caused by life changes.
