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.
I am Natalie, a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in stress management, life transitions, and relationship issues. I support clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of their next step and together we explore what you need to feel more grounded and confident. I also help couples work through conflict, rebuild emotional safety, and strengthen communication. Outside the office, I am a busy mom who loves thrifting.
At some point, many people find themselves asking the same frustrating question: "How did I end up right back here again?"
The same arguments. The same habits. The same anxiety. The same relationship patterns. The same promises to yourself that this time would be different.
Many of my clients come to therapy feeling exhausted from carrying the weight of unresolved stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship challenges, or major life transitions. Others feel stuck because they've gained insight into their struggles but haven't been able to create the lasting change they want.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience helping adults create meaningful, lasting change, my goal isn't just to help you understand yourself better. It's to help you recognize the patterns keeping you stuck, build practical skills that work in everyday life, and move toward the life you actually want to live.
Therapy can be a powerful place to recenter, build skills, and dive deeper - so congrats on taking that first step. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 7 years of experience supporting clients in a variety of settings, including schools and outpatient hospital clinics. Over the last 7 years, I have focused my work on adolescents and young adults ages 14–25 who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, school challenges, identity development, and the pressure of figuring out who they are and where they are headed. My goal is to provide a supportive and neuro-affirming space where you can better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, and build skills that help you feel more grounded and confident.
I know reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, so I work hard to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard. Clients describe me as warm, approachable, and easy to talk to, and my hope is that you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are.
I am an LPC in the state of LA. I have a history of working with children, teens, and adults. My strengths are working with those who could use help with finding healthy coping skills, boundary setting, and face challenges with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, and Anger Management. I facilitate therapy using a Strengths-Based and CBT approach.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Lafayette, LA
Searching for therapists in Lafayette starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Lafayette therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience match your needs. Bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller city like Lafayette, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger metro areas, so virtual therapy can expand your choices across Louisiana. Some people prefer a nearby office in Lafayette, Broussard, Duson, or Scott, while others choose virtual sessions that fit more easily into their schedule. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions and communicates with people they support.
Therapy in Lafayette can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. Headway connects you with licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, with many accepting a wide range of insurance plans. You can filter by location, insurance, specialty, availability, and virtual or in-person care, then review bios and book directly when you’re ready.
