Therapists in Louisiana

Life can be crazy right now, huh? We are facing immense unexpected life stressors that our brain and body are constantly trying to resolve. Do you find yourself having negative ruminating thoughts? Are you feeling tense, irritable, or anxious and wonder why do I feel this way? Are you experiencing conflict in your relationships but not sure why this keeps happening or how to solve it? I can help. I believe each client has the strength and capacity for change and awareness within themselves. My role is to provide insight, encouragement, education, evidence-based practices, and a little laughter to help each client reach their goals.

Hey, you! Yes, You! If you’re feeling stressed out, can’t slow down, just lost a family member or pet, trying to understand “neurodivergence”, wanting to kick a bad habit, or feel overstimulated all the time, I would love to join your journey.

Hey there, I'm Maddy! I work with clients experiencing a range of struggles and goals, primarily with those who are experiencing anxiety, depression, adjustment, relationship concerns, and social skills. I incorporate mindfulness techniques into session and believe in the importance of client homework. I meet clients where they are, and help them create goals that bring them closer to their values. I want you to create and reach goals that align with your values, gain insight into your life, and process emotions openly and freely.

We commend you for making the right choice for you, to create the life that you desire by working through whatever concerns or challenges that you may be experiencing. We know that sharing intimate details about your life may be challenging, but it will be our pleasure to help you navigate your way through this process. We have over 30 years of combined experience. We have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, couples counseling, life skills development, parenting issues, career planning and coaching, ADHD, substance abuse, Military issues/concerns, sexual assault & PTSD.

Do you feel overwhelmed by your work or family life? Do you find yourself lost in the shuffle and wanting to find better balance? Do you feel "stuck" and unsure of what your next move should be? Entering therapy is a courageous step you can take to begin living a healthier and more fulfilling life. My areas of specialization and interest include working with individuals and couples as they navigate life and career transitions, relationship concerns, anxiety and depression, self-esteem, and multifaceted work/family responsibilities.

Are overwhelm, overthinking, rigidity, & avoidance shaping your daily life? Is irritability, low self worth, fatigue, and procrastination keeping you in a cycle you want to break? Integrative mental health care can help you overcome these challenges and live a fuller, more authentic life. I work best with clients who want to unearth and correct the contributing factors keeping them stuck, from limiting thoughts and beliefs to self-sabotaging habits and behaviors.

Many individuals have struggled, currently struggle, or will struggle with a mental health-related issue. I strive to reduce the stigma in society that often appears when discussing mental health concerns and seeking services. Sometimes just asking for help is the hardest part. Each client deserves a collaborative, accepting environment to discuss goals, growth, empowerment, change, and overall satisfaction with their day-to-day lives. I welcome the opportunity to help others forge a fulfilling future.

Hello and welcome! As a therapist, I can help you manage your everyday challenges in a warm and supportive environment. By working together, my goal will be to help you feel better as quickly as possible.

I easily connect with and help those struggling with depression, trauma, anxiety, suicidal ideation, and addiction. Mindfulness-based techniques like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy are very useful in the therapy room. I also enjoy learning about and sharing information on neuroscience and the findings that benefit our every day mental health. I love using meditation with my clients because the benefits are too many to count! I also teach my clients how to use cognitive defusion (looking AT thoughts rather than FROM them), present moment awareness, and acceptance.

There are so many reasons to engage in therapy. In my practice I will provide you with a collaborative relationship so that you can learn to treat yourself with kindness, do the same for those you love, develop tools to tolerate difficult emotions, and gain skills to get what you need from your relationships. We will learn about your strengths and develop coping skills to overcome difficulties so that you are better able to overcome addictions, negative relationships, trauma, depression, anxiety and others.

I see counseling as a process in which the Client and I, the PLPC, will build a therapeutic relationship based on understanding and trust. Seeking counseling is the first step in the right direction towards happiness and personal freedom. I would love to assist and guide you through the next steps towards positive changes. Whether you are experiencing difficulties in your relationship, struggling to cope with a loss, hoping to manage symptoms of anxiety or depression more effectively or just needing guidance managing what life throws at you, I can help.

Scared, anxious, depressed, frustrated, stuck? Looking to deepen your relationships and resolve ongoing conflicts? Experiencing painful loss, a difficult transition, or trauma? I help shed light on unconscious motives, patterns and beliefs that are no longer serving you in order to allow healing and positive changes. Just as importantly, I focus on utilizing your strengths so they better support you in this process. I listen deeply and compassionately in a safe, relaxing setting, and always with positive regard.

You deserve a life of peace, meaning, and wellness. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience. Through telehealth or in-person sessions, my goal is to help you tap into your strengths to discover your best self. Together, we can develop strong coping skills when life gets challenging. I frequently utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and a solution-focused approach. I have a special interest in exploring the intersection of physical and mental wellness.

I began practicing therapy in Louisiana in 2007 upon my graduation from Southern University of New Orleans with a masters degree in social work. My undergraduate degree is in psychology from Southeastern Louisiana University. My ideal client is someone who wants to work through the issues troubling them in life so they can live their best life! My job is to help you set and accomplish goals that you want to work on and achieve not only in therapy but also in life. I offer both in person and teletherapy sessions in Mandeville Louisiana.

Whether you have previously seen other therapists or if this is your first time seeking help, I am an active and curious therapist which tends to make it a little easier to engage in this process. I believe that every one of us deserves to live the fullest life we can, even with the very real obstacles that stand in our way. I also believe that struggling is an inherent part of being human. The way we interact with our past, current situation, and dreams and goals can actually lead to increased suffering instead of moving closer to what we want.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Board Approved Clinical Supervisor with 21 years of mental health experience, and have a law degree. I treat a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression and bi-polar depression, relationship issues and couple's counseling, and family mediation.

As a counselor, I am deeply committed to providing person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, and existential therapy approaches tailored to your unique needs and preferences. Your journey is paramount, and I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

Being vulnerable and reaching out for help takes strength. I aspire to work with you to set attainable goals to improve not only your mental wellbeing but your life overall! Creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship will make all the difference in our work together. Are you struggling or stuck? Navigating life’s challenges and changes can be difficult to do alone. I support my clients with setting attainable goals while fostering a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship. We will work together to uncover ways to reach your goals and work toward them at a pace that feels safe and supportive.

Does life seem overwhelming at times? Sometimes we struggle with trying to find the right balance. I want to help you build on skills that you have in order to help you live a happy, balanced life. My focus is working with adolescents and young adults. However, all age groups are welcomed. I help with ADHD, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and difficult transitions.
