Teletherapy for Louisiana

Dr. Pete Cooper holds a Doctor of Philosophy in Counseling Studies and is a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor in the state of Louisiana and a Certified Life Coach. He has been practicing in the mental health profession for over 25 years and primarily works with individuals struggling with bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, stress management, relationship and marital issues and those in the midst of life transitions. Dr. Cooper takes an eclectic approach in helping others by effectively tailoring what each individual's struggles are, in tandem with what their personality type is and what goals they want to achieve.

"HELPING BUILD A BETTER YOU". . . . . a mental-behavioral-spiritual growth approach to counseling, looking to history and life span development in understanding one's personality (including family of origin, religious imagination and formation, body image, significant transitional periods, major changes in life, physical problems), helping plan one's future - utilizing one's inner resources and strengths - minimizing symptoms of mental disturbance and maximizing one's ability to flourish through mindfulness techniques and an observant objective posture toward life's choices and attitudes - hopefully leading to the enjoyment of spiritual, mental, physical and emotional balance.

How you see yourself might be deeply influenced by the emotional distress, negative thought patterns, or destructive and addictive behaviors you struggle with. As a Holistic Health Practitioner, I believe these conditions cover up, rather than define, who you truly are. My unique approach to holistic health and wellness encourages a balanced integration of the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of your wellbeing. I'd like to support you in creating optimal conditions for the safe, mindful, and deep exploration of your innate capacity for self-healing and radical transformation.

I will be a source of honest support, deep listening, understanding, change processes and, at times, direct advice. I have a passion for working with people to create joyful, more satisfying, balanced, and interesting lives. The purpose of therapy is to offer a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment to find perspective and solve problems. LGBTQA+ friendly, anyone is safe here. I have worked with clients with mild issues and those with lifelong patterns that require a deeper process. If you find the strength to bring yourself here, we will collaborate to help you live a better life.

My primary clinical focus is working with clients experiencing trauma (PTSD/C-PTSD), anxiety, and OCD, among a host of other issues. I have a special affinity with helping budding and established mental health professionals, but enjoy helping people from all backgrounds and walks of life. My primary goal in therapy is to extend a sense of unconditional positive regard to my clients - a space for them to safety explore and heal.

Counseling is about creating a safe environment for a client, both an actual comfortable "real space" and a place of trust in our hearts and heads. This needs to be a non-judgmental space where a person from any walk of life can feel at home and welcomed. The process is about compassionate listening, collaboration, and creating a place where healthy growth can happen over time. Most of my training focuses in on the use of cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based therapy techniques. After completing my graduate training at Tulane University, I received advanced training in trauma by Dr. Aaron Beck.

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 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.

As an experienced clinical psychologist, I have most enjoyed working with people having difficulty adjusting to the stressful events and demands in their lives. They find themselves reacting with anxiety, anger, depression or other disturbing feelings and behaviors that work on them rather than for them. They yearn to develop ways of coping and hope to develop a greater appreciation for what life has to offer.

I work with adults of all ages and backgrounds who are wishing to explore what it means to become the best version of themselves that they can be at this time. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, lifestyle changes, or problems with addiction, I can offer my unique perspectives with an open heart and mind. I enjoy working with individuals or couple that are struggling to make consistent changes, or are making limited progress and could use some support from a professional.

Hi, this is Art, I've been working in the mental health field for 28 years and as a licensed counselor since 2007. Have you ever had a problem or issue that you are concerned about? We all have. So, what do we do? We first try talking to our relatives or close friends. They are usually helpful and caring but they have their own thoughts about what we should do. It may involve another relative or friend whom they also know. Our issue may be very private and even embarrassing to speak about to someone we know. Counseling changed my life, please give it a try!

My approach to therapy is to keep the process straightforward so that my clients can experience positive change as quickly as possible. My use of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) blended with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and meditative practice provides clients with a solid foundation to achieve personal growth. My goal is to help my clients realize their best self and develop the skills necessary to live a rich, full, and meaningful life.

Hi, I’m Eric. I believe the foundation of helpful therapy is a trusting and supportive relationship. I provide a safe and compassionate space where clients are encouraged to gain self-awareness, while honoring the strengths and values each person brings with them. A process of exploration into your own experience - of thought, emotion, sensation, and behavior - can empower a greater ability to make conscious, creative choices toward personally meaningful change for a more fulfilling life. Gradually, this process can transform the way you relate to yourself, others, and the world.

Do you find yourself feeling anxious in relationships? Have you ever wondered why you keep repeating old behaviors? Are you battling internal voices that say you aren’t good enough? My practice focuses on adults dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, childhood trauma, and relationship issues - including dating and negotiating forms of consensual non-monogamy.

I think being human is hard. I believe on some level, most people know who they want to be, but it gets really hard to show up in our lives when the bad feelings-fear, guilt, shame, embarrassment, anxiety-are present. I think my role as a therapist is to help people learn how to show up in their lives and grow enough to have these bad feelings, and be people they can be proud of.

Hello, my name is Wesley Errington and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have been working professionally since 2017 and have worked with a vast and diverse population ranging from children, adults, families, and couples. I currently work as a Mental Health Counselor at Southeastern Louisiana University where I work with the college age population. My ideal client is one that is seeking mental health growth through healing, exploration, and learning more of themselves and the role mental health has on their lives.

I believe that humans, at their core, want the same thing: to know that they are not alone and that their voices matter. As a transgender, queer therapist, I am passionate about working with clients who are struggling with feeling silenced, processing and healing attachment wounds, and navigating difficult life transitions. I am dedicated to helping my clients feel empowered in themselves and supporting them as they discover their most authentic selves.

I have 30 years experience working with ages 18 and older. I believe in the wholistic approach, working with an individual's mind, body, and spirit. I like to teach practical ways of coping with the outside world and empower my client to assert themselves to get their needs met. I have worked with various diagnoses throughout the years, including mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and dual diagnosis. I also work with relationship issues, grief, codependency, and work issues.
