I’m Dee S. Freeman, LPC, LAC, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Addiction Counselor with over a decade of experience helping individuals and families heal, grow, and rebuild their lives. I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Southern University and a Master Certification in Adult Education and Training.
My background includes directing clinical programs, supervising counselors, and providing therapy for clients experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, and family conflict. I specialize in working with women, parents, and families—particularly those navigating pregnancy, postpartum challenges, or involvement with court and social service systems.
At HALO Therapeutic Group, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients can be heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives.
Therapy isn't about fixing who you are. It's about understanding what's getting in your way. I'm Scott, a Licensed Professional Counselor with nine years of experience helping people navigate anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma, and the challenges that come with different stages of life. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, struggling with self-confidence, or noticing the same patterns showing up in your relationships, my goal is to help you gain a better understanding of yourself and find a way forward.
I believe therapy should be a place where you feel comfortable being yourself while also making meaningful progress. My style is straightforward, collaborative, and practical. I enjoy helping people recognize their strengths, challenge perspectives that may be holding them back, and develop greater confidence in handling life's challenges. You don't have to have everything figured out to begin making positive changes.
I have over years of counseling experience, specializing in grief, bereavement, trauma, and PTSD. My journey in this field has given me a deep understanding of the complexities involved in processing loss and trauma. I am passionate about providing compassionate support to individuals navigating their unique experiences, and I approach each client with empathy and respect.
I believe in creating a safe space where you can share your thoughts and feelings openly. My goal is to empower you to explore your emotions, gain insights, and develop coping strategies tailored to your needs. Together, we can work through the challenges you face and support your healing journey.
Sometimes the weight you have been carrying has been there so long it just starts to feel normal. Whether you are working through anxiety, grief, depression, or the lasting effects of trauma, or you are a parent watching your child or teenager struggle and searching for someone who can really help, you deserve a therapist who takes the relationship seriously. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, and after more than 20 years in this field, I still believe that nothing meaningful happens without trust. Clients often describe me as a genuine thought partner, someone who listens carefully and meets them where they are.
I believe that therapy is a partnership built on trust, compassion, and respect. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and experiences. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, behavioral challenges, and life transitions. I understand that seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, and I strive to meet you where you are while helping you build the skills and confidence to create meaningful, lasting change.
Hi, I’m Dr. Darlene Brooks-Sanville, a Doctor of Social Work, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Board Approved Clinical Supervisor with more than nineteen years of experience. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, stress, substance-use concerns, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. My style is warm, compassionate, empathetic, and nonjudgmental. Using CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy, I provide personalized, practical support in a safe, collaborative space.
I take a warm, nonjudgmental approach to therapy where you can feel safe, seen, and accepted as you are. I bring a calm presence, gentle humor, and deep care for people into the room. My faith is important to me and shapes the way I love and honor others, while always respecting your beliefs and values. I am trained in trauma work and draw from CBT, person centered therapy, mindfulness, and I am actively learning EMDR to better support healing.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I hold a license with the Louisiana LPC Board of Examiners in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and work with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with men, women, and children of various ages experiencing difficulties that affect mood, thinking, and behavior.
