For my patients, things often look pretty impressive on the outside, but in their heads it’s a different story. The overachievers, the perfectionists, the people pleasers — no one in their lives might even guess they’re struggling. They look like they’ve got it all together. Despite being intelligent, effective, ambitious women, life isn’t as perfect as it seems. They feel anxious, stressed, unfulfilled, and burnt out; they’re critical of themselves; they’re dealing with the very real ups and downs of this particular season of life. They doubt themselves more than most people who have achieved half of what they have.

I'm currently unable to take on new clients at this time. I see my job as helping people identify and develop their personal goals to living fuller, more satisfactory lives. Blending conventional and alternative approaches, I draw on a variety of styles and techniques to incorporate what will be most helpful for each client. I work with each client to help them build on their strengths to identify and achieve life goals.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Orleans. I strongly believe that a developmental perspective is important when working with clients in therapy. A young child practicing social skills and working to connect with peers, a child entering adolescence and exploring his identity, or a parent with a new baby all represent life transitions that are part of the normal developmental landscape.

Psychotherapy can be one of the most valuable life experiences a person can have. Yet finding the right therapist may seem like an overwhelming task. I believe that establishing trust in the therapeutic relationship is critical before any meaningful or lasting change can result from a particular "technique." It is important to feel confident in your therapist's competency, compassion and character in order to build a safe, trusting relationship in which growth and change can occur. I hope that the personal statements made by therapists in this directory will help you find a good match for your particular needs.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
