Dr. Shauntee Slack

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Monroe, LA


With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I am deeply committed to helping individuals and families heal, grow, and reconnect with their strengths. My work is grounded in trauma-centered therapy, recognizing that many emotional and behavioral challenges are rooted in experiences that deserve compassion, understanding, and skilled support.

Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with children, adolescents, and families, helping them navigate life transitions, relationship challenges, and the impact of trauma. I believe therapy should be a safe space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to move forward with confidence.

Therapist

Virtual • Louisiana


Are you looking for a therapist who is encouraging, warm, empathetic, and affirming? If so, you may be in the right place. Hi, I’m Kayla Bellard, and I’m here to support you in your journey toward healing and growth.

As a fellow Louisianian, I value connection, authenticity, and meeting people where they are. I enjoy southern cuisine, Mardi Gras parades, and spending time outdoors - and I bring that same warmth and down-to-earth approach into my work with clients. I understand that starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life transitions. My goal is to create a comfortable, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and safe to explore your experiences.

My therapeutic approach is person-centered and focused on your goals, needs, and personal growth. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, and self-discovery. Together, we focus on collaboration, respect, and building insight so you can move forward with confidence and clarity.

Heather Howard

Therapist

Virtual • Shreveport, LA


Sometimes life feels overwhelming not because of one big moment, but because the stress, worry, and emotional weight have slowly built over time. Anxiety, depression, family conflict, trauma, or major life changes can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself and the people you care about most. You don't have to navigate those challenges alone. I partner with individuals and families experiencing anxiety, depression, family issues, LGBTQIA+ concerns, and trauma so they can strengthen relationships, build resilience, and create a greater sense of peace in their everyday lives. Working with children, adolescents, adults, and families, I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where every person feels safe, respected, and empowered to grow.

Jeremiah Henderson

Therapist

Virtual • Louisiana


Hello, my name is Jeremiah Henderson. I am a licensed clinical social worker practicing in the state of Texas. I have experience working with depression, grief, anxiety, low self-esteem, low motivation, trauma, and anger. It is important to realize that we are all prone to experience life stressors and negative emotions that can knock us down; however, I want us to work to develop skills and coping mechanisms to assist in helping to pull ourselves back to a point of stability. Getting to a place of happiness and stability is not something we can stumble on by accident, it will take deliberate work to get there and even harder work to maintain it. Let me help you get to the finish line.

Jeana Balukonis

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Louisiana


My path to psychiatric care is a little different from most. I spent over a decade as an Obstetrics Nurse before transitioning into psychiatric mental health — and that background deeply shapes how I show up for my clients. I understand the weight of life transitions, the complexity of the mind-body connection, and the importance of feeling truly supported. Now, as a PMHNP, I bring that same compassionate, whole-person perspective to mental health care.
