Reaching out for support can be a big step, and you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I believe therapy works best when we approach it as a collaboration. Your story is unique, and you are the expert in your own life.

I work with adolescents and adults who may be feeling overwhelmed by things like trauma, anxiety, stress, ADHD, or difficult life experiences. Together, we create a space where you can talk openly, feel heard, and begin exploring what healing and growth look like for you.

Clients often describe me as inquisitive, warm, and even a bit humorous, someone who helps them look at challenges from new perspectives while staying focused on solutions.

Louise Handley

Therapist

Virtual • Louisiana


Hello, thanks for stopping by. I’m here to offer a calm, compassionate space where you can finally start to feel understood. I know life can be complicated, especially when you're navigating Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, or Autism. My goal is to help you (or your child, age 5+) manage these challenges and discover a path toward feeling more at ease and confident.

What Makes Working With Me Different? My journey to becoming a counselor didn't start in an office; it started the day I was born. Growing up as one of eleven children, I was fortunate to have many siblings with special needs—including siblings with Autism, ADHD, Depression, Anxiety and Learning Disabilities. This taught me something invaluable: true, deep patience, kindness, and compassion.

For over 20 years, I honed this understanding as both a High School Counselor and Special Education teacher.

Since I offer teletherapy only, you can start your journey to feeling better from the comfort of your own home. Our first session together is simple: it’s all about getting to know each other. We’ll talk about what brought you here, your goals, and what a "good day" looks like for you. It’s a low-pressure conversation where you can feel safe and heard.

Ready to Connect?

I truly care about helping you feel your best, and I’ve got the patience and experience to see you through it. If you’re ready to start finding that inner calm, I encourage you to reach out.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Slidell

Searching for therapists in Slidell starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists, look at the specialties they list and how they describe their approach. Some may use cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or other methods. A therapist’s bio can help you understand what they focus on and what sessions may be like.

In a smaller city like Slidell, local in-person options may vary by specialty, schedule, and insurance. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Louisiana. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how their communication style comes across in their profile. These details can help you decide who may be a practical fit before you book.

Therapy in Slidell 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 search for therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer in-person or virtual care. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated session costs before booking, read therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
