My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that our behaviors and emotional patterns are shaped by the systems we’re part of and the relationships that have influenced us. I strive to deeply understand each client’s story how they came to see themselves and the world around them and how those perspectives impact their present-day experiences. I believe that, together, we can uncover and work through the obstacles that may be keeping you from living the life you want. I’ll bring my training in cognitive-behavioral and experiential approaches to support you in a way that feels collaborative, respectful, and attuned to your goals. I work with individuals navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, and difficulties in communication within their relationships or family dynamics. In our initial sessions, we'll take a thoughtful and in-depth look at the concerns bringing you in, and together we'll develop a personalized plan to help you regain a sense of balance and well-being I know that reaching out for support isn’t always easy, especially when you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain. In therapy, we’ll work together to explore what’s getting in the way and begin moving toward the life you want to live. You're not alone, and support is available.

I received my Master’s degree in Social Work in 1994. Since that time, I have had opportunities to work with adults, children, and families in a variety of settings. Though I have experience with many mental health issues, I would consider my specialties as mood disorders, trauma, relational issues and parenting. My experience has taught me the importance of flexibility when working with a client and their unique circumstances. Treatment techniques and strategies will vary depending on the needs presented. Through the years, my basic core philosophy towards therapy has been strengthened through successes I have witnessed. This philosophy is based on my strong belief that we, as humans, do the best that we can with the circumstances we are given, and that we have the ability to grow and make positive changes. As a therapist, I strive to provide a safe and caring environment, filled with acceptance and empathy, providing guidance and honest feedback to assist in the change process.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Louisiana with over 20 years of experience—and I’ll be upfront from the start: I’m not a “just nod and ask how that makes you feel” kind of therapist. If you want real change—not just talking in circles—I may be a good fit for you. I work with adults who are ready to take an honest look at their lives and do something different. If you’re dealing with relationship issues, trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, or feeling stuck, I help you cut through the noise and focus on what actually works. My style is direct, practical, and supportive. I will challenge patterns that aren’t serving you, hold you accountable, and help you build the skills to move forward. At the same time, you’ll have a space where you can be real without judgment. Therapy with me isn’t about staying comfortable—it’s about growth, clarity, and results. If you’re ready for that, let’s get to work.

Find a therapist near you in Rayne, Louisiana

Finding a therapist near you in Rayne, Louisiana starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Louisiana is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you. 

The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Louisiana, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Louisiana, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.

Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Louisiana

Online therapy and in-person therapy both connect you with a licensed professional, and the main difference is how you meet. In Louisiana, online therapy through BetterHelp lets you have sessions by phone, video, or in-app messaging, so you can meet from home or on a schedule that fits your life. In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows. Online therapy may be more accessible for people with busy schedules, limited transportation, or a preference for a more discreet setting. Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.

Finding a therapist that accepts insurance in Louisiana

BetterHelp accepts insurance through many major insurance plans. Insurance availability and coverage may vary by state, plan, provider network, and therapist availability, and deductible status. Eligible members' average copay is $23 per session. 

You can check your in-network status on the BetterHelp site through the sign up flow. If you prefer to pay without insurance, BetterHelp subscriptions range from $70 to $100 per week, billed as an alternative way to access the same care, and you can use HSA and FSA funds toward the cost. For a full breakdown of how BetterHelp works with insurance plans, see BetterHelp insurance coverage.

How BetterHelp helps you find the right therapist in Louisiana

BetterHelp helps you find the right therapist in Louisiana through personalized matching that considers your needs, preferences, and goals. After you answer a few questions during the sign up flow, you can be matched with a licensed therapist from a network of over 30,000 professionals, and 93% of user preferences are met during matching. The search and location matching cover common near-me needs, including anxiety, trauma, affordable or sliding-scale support, weekend or flexible scheduling, and virtual sessions. If your first match is not the right fit, you can switch therapists at no extra cost. When you are ready, you can get started and begin the process.
