I am a Faith Based (Catholic/Christian) License Professional Counselor. Certified in Trauma, Grief and Loss that loves working with Adolescents, Couples, Families and Individuals since 2004. I strongly believe that through our life our experiences may leave deep wounds that stop us from being loved by others and giving love to others. Through Therapy, one can begin to process these wounds, as a heart surgeon unclogs the arteries of the heart, and begin to feel like the loving individual that God created us to be and wants us to be

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New Orleans
Finding the right therapist in New Orleans starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider the concerns you want to address — whether that's anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions — and look for a licensed provider who specializes in those areas. Common license types in Louisiana include LPCs, LCSWs, LMFTs, and psychologists, and each brings a different training background to their work.
New Orleans has a wide range of mental health providers practicing across neighborhoods like Uptown, Mid-City, the Garden District, Lakeview, and the French Quarter. Narrowing your options can feel like a lot, especially when you're also weighing logistics like scheduling, session format, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual visits. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.
Therapy in New Orleans can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to see estimated costs upfront, so you know what to expect before your first appointment.
