Therapist

Virtual • Metairie, LA


After 27 years as a social worker, I still believe good therapy starts with really listening. I work with adults and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, and the stress that comes with big life transitions. My years in community mental health taught me that care should feel accessible, not intimidating. I'd love to help you find steadier ground.

Therapist

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, anger, impulse control, stress, and the specific pressures that come with being a woman today. Many of my clients arrive feeling like they are holding everything together for everyone else and running out of room for themselves. My job is to help you get that room back.

Outside of work, you will usually find me drawing, out on a hike, or at the gym. I bring that same steady, practical energy into session.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lake Charles

Searching for therapists in Lake Charles starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists may help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship stress, life transitions, and trauma. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Bios can show whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

In a smaller city like Lake Charles, the number of nearby in-person options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Louisiana. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what sessions may look like.

Therapy in Lake Charles can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences and offer in-person or virtual appointments, and you can check which insurance coverage is available for your plan before booking. You can review bios, compare availability, see estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
