You're not crazy. You're doing the best you can under crazy circumstances. I offer compassionate, open-minded teletherapy in Louisiana and California. Shame, guilt and stigma are not a part of my practice. My focus is to understand things from your perspective and work as a team to identify and meet your goals for growth. Finding a therapist can be overwhelming- especially when you need one. I get it. I've been there, but just being here means you're on the right track. To get you started, I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation, so reach out. Even if we aren't the right fit, I'll try to refer you to someone who might be.
I can help. To name a few, I have experience with clients recovering from trauma; in toxic or abusive relationships; feeling anxious or depressed; feeling stuck and in need of change; struggling with boundaries in family, friend or romantic relationships; coping with life transitions; building a stronger sense of self and increasing self-esteem.
Whatever it is, I want to help you get through it. My job is not to judge or give advice. My job is to listen and help you find your way back to yourself. I'm ready to meet you where you are, without judgment and with an open mind. Email or call me. I try to respond to all phone calls and emails within 24 hrs.

Our first sessions are an opportunity for us to talk about what brings you in to therapy and for me to learn about your history and how it might relate to what's going on in your life right now. After that, we'll begin identifying goals and developing a plan together to help you start living the life you want. My job is to meet you where you are, listen empathically and reflect what I hear.
