Hi, I'm Mary Claire. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing virtually in both Florida and Louisiana. For the the past 25 years I've supported individuals in reclaiming their joy.
I’m a therapist who supports individuals and couples through pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition into parenthood. As a mom myself, I understand that this season can bring incredible joy, but also stress, anxiety, overwhelm, relationship changes, and emotions that can be difficult to talk about.
I work with women, men, and couples to better understand what they’re experiencing, strengthen communication, and navigate this life transition together. Whether you’re struggling personally, trying to support your partner, or feeling disconnected as a couple, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.
My goal is to provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can feel heard, supported, and understood

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Shreveport
Searching for addiction therapists in Shreveport starts with finding care that matches the specific support you want. Addiction care can include support for substance use, alcohol use, behavioral concerns, relapse prevention, and related concerns like anxiety, trauma, or relationship stress. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with approaches such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with a prescriber when that is part of your care team.
In a mid-sized city like Shreveport, your options may include local offices, virtual appointments, or a mix of both. Virtual care can expand access if local appointment times are limited or if you prefer to meet from a familiar setting. When narrowing your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers scheduling that fits your routine, and has experience with non-judgmental, harm reduction-informed care. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they describe their approach and whether their style fits what you are looking for.
Addiction counseling in Shreveport 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 compare therapists who match your needs, confirm your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse Shreveport therapists, review bios, and book directly when you are ready.
