Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Baton Rouge, LA

Hello, My name is Dr. Danielle Lefort! I am a licensed marriage, couples, and family counselor who specializes in relationships. I have spent the last 12 years studying what healthy relationships look like and ways to incorporate healthy experiences in ways that change lives for the better. I also work with people who are looking to address anxiety, depression, and increase an overall sense of well-being in their lives. Please see my website at drdaniellelefort.com for additional information.

I help adolescents and adults who feel weighed down by trauma, anxiety, or depression—whether that comes from childhood abuse, military experiences, or the impact of a narcissistic parent, ex, or partner. I know how isolating that can be. In our work together, my priority is helping you feel truly seen, heard, and understood in a safe, confidential space where you can show up exactly as you are.
