I have been practicing social work for 15 years with the last 3 in the field of counseling/therapy. I attended Southern University and A&M College and Tulane University's School of Social Work where I received my Bachelor’s and Master’s of Science in Social Work degrees respectively. I have worked in what is considered the trenches, community health, and now healthcare. Helping you reach your goal is my passion.
After spending a decade working with youth, I realized the best part of my work were the meaningful, life-changing conversations. Thus, I went back to school for a Masters in Counseling from LSU. Now, I spend most of my days helping people with anxiety, depression, trauma, and OCD to rebuild a better life.
Therapy and the journey to self-exploration can be hard. Together, we can navigate your path toward improved mental health and emotional well-being. My approach is solution-focused, centered on the immediate obstacles you are facing. While how you got here matters, what you choose to do next can have an even greater impact. As a clinical social worker with experience across private practice, hospital social work, parenting education, and community care, I bring a broad range of experience to support us in working through challenges together.
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.
What sets us apart from many other therapists is the fact we actually help you help yourself make the necessary changes in your life by giving you tools to achieve your goals. You’ll almost always walk out of a session with a new technique that you can go home and start using immediately.
I am a compassionate and dedicated nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatric mental health. I integrate evidence-based practice with a holistic approach to support patients in achieving emotional balance and overall wellness. With dual certification in family and psychiatric care, I bring a comprehensive perspective to treatment, addressing both physical and mental health needs. My professional focus includes promoting accessible, patient-centered care through telehealth and integrative health strategies.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Shreveport
Finding OCD therapists in Shreveport starts with identifying therapists who have specific experience with obsessive-compulsive disorder. OCD therapy may focus on intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, reassurance seeking, or related concerns. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use to support people with OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or OCD listed directly in their bios and specialties.
In a mid-sized city like Shreveport, you may find a mix of local in-person options and virtual therapists licensed in Louisiana. Virtual care can expand your choices if you want a therapist with deeper OCD experience, specific ERP training, or availability that fits your schedule. It also helps to compare whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers a free phone consultation, and explains their approach to OCD clearly. Reading bios can help you tell the difference between therapists who list OCD as an area of familiarity and those who describe focused training in ERP therapy for OCD.
OCD 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 and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway makes it easier to search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready. You can browse OCD therapists in Shreveport, review bios, and choose someone who matches your needs, schedule, and plan.
