As a licensed therapist in Louisiana, I bring 17 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, family conflicts, and personal growth. I specialize in addressing workplace challenges, communication barriers, and caregiver stress while fostering self-love and empowerment.
My approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each individual's unique journey. I understand the importance of creating a supportive, affirming space where clients can explore their experiences, develop resilience, and reconnect with their inner strengths. Whether you're struggling with self-esteem, seeking clarity in relationships, or working to understand your life's purpose, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional guidance.
As a Black woman therapist, I bring a nuanced, culturally informed perspective to our work together. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can authentically explore your challenges and potential for transformation.

This is my first experience of therapy, and in only 3 sessions, Darlene has helped me fill in gaps in my understanding of situations in my life and how to respond and function in a healthier way. I feel a sense of hope that growth is possible and that I will have more inner peace and confidence as I continue in working through things with her assistance. I have been amazed by her insights into things that I couldn't figure out on my own. I highly recommend Darlene as a gentle, insightful, and expert therapist.
