I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience working with adults. I approach therapy as a relational process, not a place where you come to be fixed. You’re not a problem to solve; you’re a person with a history, patterns that make sense, and a way of being in the world that developed for a reason.
Greetings,
My name is Bridget Suire. I am a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years experience in behavioral health. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for all clients, including the LGBTQ+ community. Together we will explore the choices that clients can make to live their best life. The client is the driver, and I am the navigator. We will work together to improve your mental wellness and address anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma.
When I tell you I love what I do, I love what I do! I am not hear to manage symptoms, I'm here to heal. As a current doctoral student, I value continued education to maintain the highest form of evidence-based care for my clients. I walk the walk of healing and believe every therapist should do the same.

I have been a LPC for over 10 years and have worked with a very diverse group of clients. They range in age from 6 to 60. I specialize in adolescents and trauma. I have also worked with depression, anxiety, personal relationships, parenting problems, addictions, emotional abuse, and physical trauma.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Shreveport, LA
Searching for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Shreveport starts with finding identity-affirming care. A therapist’s training, language, and listed experience can matter as much as their clinical specialty. You may want support related to identity, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for signals like affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or direct experience working with LGBTQIA+ people.
In a smaller market like Shreveport, the number of local LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still letting you choose care that fits your schedule and preferences. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work for you, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe their approach, communication style, and experience with LGBTQIA+ communities before you book.
Therapy in Shreveport can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready.
