I provide a safe, supportive space for individuals. We negotiate together how to optimize your experience of living life, your relationships, your work, and we continue to build on that. I believe that we all have the capacity to heal and build the life that we want to live.
I also train and supervise associate level counselors in the states of Washington and Louisiana.
When I started undergrad at LSU, I always knew I wanted to pursue a private practice in therapy. I completed my MSW at LSU to later achieve my license in clinical social work. I was fortunate to serve in many different settings (healthcare, schools, families, etc.) where I found a common concern in all of them- the need for therapy.
Now that I am in this position working with individuals in therapy, I don't take for granted the unique opportunity I have with each client I get to work with.
I am a lifelong resident of South Louisiana. I received a BA in Anthropology from Northwestern State University in Natchitoches and Master’s in Social Work from LSU in 2010. I spent two years in England working in child protection before returning home. Though I consider my background in working with children and families, I currently enjoy helping clients of all ages facilitate the change that they desire to better their own lives. In 2016, I received my LCSW and began working in clinical practice.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Metairie
Searching for therapists in Metairie starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which specialties match your needs. Some people look for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that align with what you want to work on. A therapist’s bio can also show their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.
Metairie has local counseling options, but the number of nearby therapists may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual appointments can expand your options across Louisiana while still connecting you with a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect.
Therapy in Metairie can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see your estimated cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Metairie, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
