Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Mandeville, LA

Welcome to my page! I enjoy working with people to help them live happier, more fulfilling lives. I’ve worked in a variety of settings with a diverse range of clients and welcome people from all walks of life. I promise to give my best to each individual, starting with a thorough assessment and creating a detailed treatment plan guided by their needs. My counseling mantra is 'Nobody cares what you know until they know that you care."

I am a licensed clinical social worker based in New Orleans with over 20 years of experience who enjoys working with people from a variety of backgrounds and cultures. I am also a certified trauma-informed yoga teacher and artist, as well a nature and music lover. I incorporate mindfulness and art therapy into the therapy process.

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.

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.

Hello. My name is Arcell Bodden. I received my Bachelor’s of Arts in psychology from the University of New Orleans and my Master’s of Education with a focus in counseling from Texas Southern University. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Louisiana and I am also board certified by The National Board for Certified Counselors (NCC). I have 15 years of experience working with clients dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self esteem, substance abuse, and anger.

I work well with young adults and adults, particularly women, navigating complex emotions and experiences. Together we'll explore how your thoughts, emotions, body, environment, relationships, and past shape how you feel and act today. Using evidence-based approaches, I help clients build insight and practical tools. We might shift unhelpful thought patterns, develop coping strategies, learn to regulate emotions, and explore your inner world to better understand your relationship to the outside world. I bring in mindfulness techniques to help you connect with yourself as you work through challenges, heal, and grow.

I help people navigating anxiety, ADHD, women’s issues, trauma, alcohol or substance use, depression, family issues, and stress.
