Therapists in Sabine Parish, LA

Have you been struggling to make the progress you have been wanting? Are you dealing with barriers that seem to keep coming up? Perhaps it is time to stop facing these challenges alone. I see the therapeutic relationship as one that should grow and develop along healthy lines, where effort and intentionality are important and mistakes are learning opportunities to work on those life areas that are so often neglected, covered up or avoided all together. Maybe then some of those issues don't have to be so daunting.

I have learned throughout life some people are placed in situations without the power to choose and some choose situations because they lack skills and knowledge of the effects of their decisions. Many individuals practice learned behaviors and the cycle continues for generations. Change is sometimes difficult to see with closed eyes. If you have been struggling with emotional, mental or even physical difficulties and want your life to change, now is the time to seek that change. Counseling can be the change you need to improve situations that hinder your progress.

Therapy should be a space where you can talk and gain insight into what’s going on in your life and how you want to proceed. In therapy I draw on styles and techniques that are the helpful for your individual situation, providing a space where you have the authority and ability to grow in the direction you choose.
