I am a dedicated and compassionate counselor with a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree from Concordia University Wisconsin. I have experience working in substance abuse treatment, as well as providing individual and group therapy in both mental health clinic settings and public schools.

I’m Velia R. Bradley, a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in Louisiana with over 10 years of experience supporting people through emotional and psychological challenges. I earned my master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Louisiana at Monroe and am currently pursuing a doctorate focused on Counseling Education, Supervision, Trauma, and Crisis Interventions.

Hi there!

My name is De’Andra LeMalle, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) that takes on a creative and expressive approach to therapy. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. In addition to my clinical training, I am certified in Expressive Arts Therapy, Mandala Assessment Research Instrument (MARI), and Vibroacoustic Therapy (VAT).

These modalities allow me to incorporate creative and body-centered techniques that help clients explore emotions, experiences, and patterns that may be difficult to express through words alone. My practice focuses on helping individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and identity exploration better understand themselves and process their experiences.

I work with clients who may feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next steps. Together, we develop meaningful strategies for healing, emotional regulation, and personal growth in a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment.

Mental health care should feel like a conversation, not an interrogation.

I believe the best outcomes happen when patient's feel heard, respected, and are actively involved in their treatment. My approach involves a team approach and is honest and hands on. I take the time to understand the whole person —not just a diagnosis— so we can create a treatment plan that fits your goals, values, and lifestyle.

You are the expert on your life. I’m the expert on mental health. The best care happens when we combine both.

Hello! I work with client's who struggle with anxiety, depression, substance use, stress, and etc. Over the past years I have developed my counseling skills to help others achieve their goals and needs they are wanting to accomplish in their counseling journey.

With over thirteen years of experience in the field, I bring a depth of knowledge and a steady, grounded presence to every session. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor (LPC-S), a National Certified Counselor (NCC), and one of only eight Certified DBT Specialists (C-DBT) in the state of Louisiana. I received my DBT training at a VA hospital, where I had the privilege of working closely with veterans and developing a strong foundation in trauma-informed care.

Throughout my career, I have worked across all levels of care, from crisis settings to outpatient therapy, and that range has made me a confident, compassionate guide for clients navigating emotionally intense situations. I am also a Certified Trauma Specialist, and my work spans adolescents, adults, couples, and families facing challenges like trauma and PTSD, borderline personality disorder, mood disorders, addiction, self-harm, and eating disorders. I believe deeply that recovery is possible and that renewed hope is always within reach.

I’m Thomas, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s most challenging transitions. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of your next step, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
