- LCSW
As a licensed therapist in Louisiana, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My professional approach centers on helping clients develop deeper self-understanding and resilience, particularly when addressing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and workplace stress.
I am passionate about creating a compassionate, non-judgmental therapeutic environment where individuals can explore personal growth, improve communication skills, and work through feelings of guilt, shame, and self-doubt. My practice focuses on empowering clients to cultivate self-love, discover their life purpose, and develop healthier emotional patterns.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I collaborate closely with clients to develop personalized strategies that promote healing, self-acceptance, and meaningful personal transformation. Whether you're struggling with mood disorders, relationship conflicts, or seeking greater self-esteem, I'm committed to supporting your unique journey toward emotional wellness.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
