Hey there! I'm Penni :) I'm a licensed clinical therapist in Louisiana with over a decade of experience supporting clients through life's most challenging transitions. I work with clients of all backgrounds and ages, from middle school to older adults, with a particular focus on helping older adults navigate the complexities of aging, grief, and life purpose. My approach is grounded in understanding the interconnected nature of emotional wellbeing. I specialize in supporting individuals working through depression, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem concerns, as well as the deeper issues that often underlie these experiences—including trauma, guilt, shame, and feelings of abandonment. I'm particularly skilled at helping clients examine relationship patterns, communication challenges, and the impact of codependency and narcissistic dynamics on their lives. I believe you're the expert of your story and your life experiences, and that we all have strengths inside that can and will assist us in overcoming challenges and the ways that life ... life's. As long as we don't give up. I'm a believer that we all have the answers we’re looking for inside of us; sometimes we need just somebody to help us dig deep enough to find them. Not everyone believes they can, some just don't subscribe to that notion. And that’s okay. My goal is to help guide you through those things. Without judgment. Without deciding for you. It takes a lot of courage to admit a need, seek out and accept help from a stranger. I'm proud of you for getting started! It's an honor to be able to walk alongside you.

Do you feel stuck in the same patterns no matter how hard you try to change? Maybe anxiety is keeping you on edge, your inner critic is constantly running, or you're carrying stress, guilt, or self-doubt that feels impossible to put down. On the outside, you may look like you're managing everything just fine, but internally you're exhausted from holding it all together. You don't have to navigate that alone. I believe healing happens when we begin to understand the patterns that are keeping us stuck and learn new ways to respond to life's challenges. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can process what you're carrying, gain practical tools, and move toward lasting change. I believe you are the expert on your own story and already possess many strengths that can support your healing journey. Taking the first step toward counseling takes courage, and I would be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward greater peace, confidence, and emotional well-being. For clients who desire it, I also offer Christian faith integration as part of the counseling process.

If you have found yourself in need of help outside of yourself, you are human. If you are at a loss for answers, you are not alone. If you feel stuck in a rut, lacking hope for the future, or unsure of where to go from here, I'd love to hear your story! I am equipped to help clients find a sense of hope for a better future, while also learning to practice acceptance now.
