Hi there!
My name is De’Andra LeMalle, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) that takes on a creative and expressive approach to therapy. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. In addition to my clinical training, I am certified in Expressive Arts Therapy, Mandala Assessment Research Instrument (MARI), and Vibroacoustic Therapy (VAT).
These modalities allow me to incorporate creative and body-centered techniques that help clients explore emotions, experiences, and patterns that may be difficult to express through words alone. My practice focuses on helping individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and identity exploration better understand themselves and process their experiences.
I work with clients who may feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next steps. Together, we develop meaningful strategies for healing, emotional regulation, and personal growth in a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment.
Therapy doesn't have to be intimidating-it's simply a space to talk, reflect, and grow. If you're ready to start that process, I'm here to help you take the next step. I work with adults and adolescents facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, end of life, and relationship issues.
I received my master's degree in social work from Louisiana State University, and I am clinically licensed to practice in Louisiana and Texas. I am an Advanced Certified Hospice and Palliative Social Worker with an extensive background in medical social work. I also, have inpatient adult psychiatric experience. Currently, I provide therapeutic interventions to adolescents in a high school-based health center.
I utilize practical, evidence-based tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), problem solving/solution-focused techniques, and strength-based approaches to help manage negative symptoms.
If anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship stress, or the challenges of living with a health disability have been weighing on you, you do not have to sort through it alone. Therapy can be a space to feel understood, gain clarity, and move forward with more confidence. I work to create a warm, respectful environment where you can be yourself, feel heard, and build on your strengths. Together, we can work toward meaningful change in a way that feels supportive, personalized, and realistic for your life.
Brittney Ball has been a licensed professional counselor, in Louisiana and Texas, for10 years with experience working with various ages with mild-to-moderate mental illnesses. Brittney is also an author of a mental health journal.

If you’re here, you might be feeling weighed down by stress, sadness, or worry that seems hard to shake. On the outside you show up, get things done, and care for the people around you...but inside, it can feel heavy and exhausting. I want you to know you don’t have to carry that alone.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana with over 15 years of experience. My background includes helping adults work through anxiety, depression, and the lingering effects of past hurts. My approach is supportive and down-to-earth: we’ll move at your pace, focusing on practical tools and new ways of thinking that can help you find balance, clarity, and peace.
I believe therapy should feel like a safe place where you are truly heard and understood. Together, we’ll work to uncover what’s been holding you back, strengthen your confidence, and build the life you want to live.
