I am a professional counselor licensed in Louisiana with over 15 years of experience working with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship issues, family problems, career and school challenges and substance use issues. As a therapist my goal is to help you uncover your true potential. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complimentary therapy approaches and techniques, we will find long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a different direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
