I am located in New Orleans, Louisiana and I believe you are deserving of the healing and love you seek. You are worthy of support and having space held for you to be safe and open.
My goal is to hold space for you, nurture your inner healer and empower you to grow in the way you always knew was possible. My encouragement to you is to allow yourself the space and time to heal through therapy.
Give yourself the permission to be gentle and begin your introspective journey in a safe and calming therapeutic environment. You are the curator for what works best for you. My hope is to be the support you need.
I provide a safe, supportive space for individuals. We negotiate together how to optimize your experience of living life, your relationships, your work, and we continue to build on that. I believe that we all have the capacity to heal and build the life that we want to live.
I also train and supervise associate level counselors in the states of Washington and Louisiana.
I have over years of counseling experience, specializing in grief, bereavement, trauma, and PTSD. My journey in this field has given me a deep understanding of the complexities involved in processing loss and trauma. I am passionate about providing compassionate support to individuals navigating their unique experiences, and I approach each client with empathy and respect.
I believe in creating a safe space where you can share your thoughts and feelings openly. My goal is to empower you to explore your emotions, gain insights, and develop coping strategies tailored to your needs. Together, we can work through the challenges you face and support your healing journey.
Hi, I'm Dr. Vera Triplett. I have been a practicing therapist for over 20 years. I enjoy the work and respect the importance of building a trusting relationship with my clients. I have a Masters degree in mental health counseling, a PhD in counselor education and am a Licensed Professional Counselor.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's of Science in Social Work from The University of Tennessee, Knoxville. I have over 13 years of experience helping adults, teens, children and families in the midst of significant life transitions. I have worked within child welfare, family homelessness, psychiatric hospital care, school, and tele-heath settings. In my practice, I help adolescents and adults overcome challenges related to anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and other life issues.
I help adolescents and adults who feel weighed down by trauma, anxiety, or depression—whether that comes from childhood abuse, military experiences, or the impact of a narcissistic parent, ex, or partner. I know how isolating that can be. In our work together, my priority is helping you feel truly seen, heard, and understood in a safe, confidential space where you can show up exactly as you are.
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.
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.

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.
