Female Therapists in Broussard, LA

Hi there! My name is Shaterrika and I’m excited that you’re here ready to start something great for yourself. If you're noticing that you resort to anger more often and faster, having difficulties finding enjoyment in your day to day life, or feeling disconnected from yourself and those around you, I can help you address all of these concerns. My role is to support you through all the ups, downs, triumphs, and challenges! I offer emotion and behavior based counseling that moves you towards feeling less overwhelmed by your feelings, more clear in how you process what you’re experiencing, and effectively expressing yourself.

As a mostly Adlerian therapist, I will help clients to explore their behavior patterns which may be interfering with attaining their goals. In order to do this, together we will examine each individual's readiness for change, how fear/anxiety plays a role in keeping them from changing behaviors and explore interpersonal/family relationships. To facilitate the most insight and emotional growth as possible for clients, my goal is to create a comfortable, non-judgemental and confidential environment. Through this environment and exploration clients will be better able to set and attain healthy goals and lifestyles.

Whatever challenges you may be facing, you don’t need to be alone in your journey. Together, we can work to help you develop the necessary tools and skills to make positive changes in your life. I’m a licensed psychologist with over 20 years’ experience helping people overcome their struggles, achieve their goals, and live a more fulfilling, meaningful, and authentic life. I believe in a collaborative and interactive approach to therapy, combining my years of training and experience with each patient’s unique strengths to work toward achieving therapy goals.

I believe that everyone who walks into my office comes with their own unique personality and life experiences; I don't believe that the same approach works for everyone.

In the end, my goal is to help my clients rely on their own strengths and successes to help them through personal challenges.

As an EMDR therapist, I use EMDR to work with clients who have experienced trauma. I sometimes use DBT with clients who struggle with emotion regulation and for whom EMDR is not a good fit.
