About me

As a licensed therapist serving Louisiana, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on empowering young adults through transformative healing experiences, with a deep commitment to addressing challenges like depression, anxiety, social isolation, and personal identity exploration.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in cultural responsiveness and affirming care, particularly for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients develop resilience, self-understanding, and meaningful strategies for personal growth. Whether you're struggling with life transitions, relationship dynamics, or internal conflicts, I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore your unique journey.

My clinical expertise spans diverse areas including trauma recovery, family dynamics, stress management, and supporting individuals with neurodevelopmental differences. I'm dedicated to meeting each client exactly where they are, honoring their individual strengths and supporting their path toward holistic wellness.

Jira is extremely understanding, caring, friendly and helpful. Therapy with her is like talking to a friend who gives you guidance on how to move forward and I love that.

Jira is awesome! Young, but has an excellent understanding of how to navigate issues that life throws at you, and if you truky consider what Jira is saying, there are powerful points of deep wisdom.

Excellent communication, takes the time to let me rant about how I'm feeling but never cuts me off or interrupts until I'm done. Always has great insight and suggestions on how to proceed with my own feelings.

I can really express how I feel and be myself with Jira. She listens and is compassionate and has a good sense of humour too. She provides really good solutions to issues and provides homework which I really appreciate.
