Hey, I'm Ronny with Conscious Alliance Counseling. I'm a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in providing neurodiversity-affirming, culturally responsive, and queer-affirming therapy for LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, Autistic, and ADHD individuals.
Hello, my name is Joelle Charpentier, APRN, PMHNP-BC. I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner who believes everyone deserves to feel heard, supported, and understood. I work with children, adolescents, and adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, life transitions, and women’s mental health concerns. My goal is to provide a welcoming, judgment-free space where we can work together toward lasting wellness.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 20 years experience in perinatal nursing. I specialize in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, however you do not have to be a parent to make an appointment with me! That said, I currently only treat adults.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.
I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.
Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Shreveport
Finding postpartum therapists in Shreveport starts with looking for care that matches your specific needs after pregnancy or birth. Postpartum concerns can include depression, anxiety, birth-related stress, identity changes, and relationship strain. Some therapists also support concerns during pregnancy and the broader perinatal period. As you compare options, look for therapists who list postpartum, perinatal mental health, or maternal mental health in their specialties. A PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health care.
In a mid-size city like Shreveport, you may find a mix of local therapists and virtual options across the area. For new parents, practical details often matter as much as specialty. An unpredictable schedule, infant care, physical recovery, or returning to work can shape which therapist is a usable fit. Virtual appointments can make it easier to access postpartum support from home, while in-person sessions may work well if you prefer a dedicated office setting. Review therapist bios for details about scheduling, approach, and experience with postpartum concerns 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. Headway helps you compare postpartum therapists who are accepting new patients, review their bios, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. Many therapists on Headway accept insurance, and coverage depends on your plan and location. You can browse therapists, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
