Therapists in New Orleans, LA

Feeling overwhelmed? Do you ever feel stress and anxiety are so paralyzing, that everyday tasks feel almost impossible? While stress and anxiety are natural emotions, that doesn’t mean you have to face them alone. Mary Grace Wagner, LMSW has experience helping individuals cope and live with anxiety, depression, and stress of any magnitude. She possesses the necessary skills to help clients develop healthy coping mechanisms to manage stressful emotions and life events that are constructive as well as therapeutic.

A Jungian approach to psychotherapy and analysis helps you understand the hidden influences affecting your everyday life. Working together, we will uncover patterns and dynamics which may be self-sabotaging or limiting you from being your full self. As you learn to connect with the unconscious, unrecognized aspects of your self can be integrated into your overall personality contributing to a greater sense of wholeness. Throughout a Jungian process, imagination awakens, as well as your innate creative potential, leading to a more meaningful life.

Thank you for looking at my profile. Therapy can help you to get relief from a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, and sexual topics. The gains from this process can continue to be beneficial even after therapy has ended.

If you are currently going through struggles in life or hitting some obstacles, know that it's normal and it happens to all of us at various times. Anxiety and depressive symptoms often arise as a result. The question is, how are you coping? Sometimes without being aware of it, we develop destructive coping mechanisms by masking or shoving things down. With over 20 years of experience I help guide clients towards healthier tools to live a more functional and fulfilling life, and improve relationships along the way. Above all else the key component centers around self care, learning to take care of you.

In a marble carving class my professor once explained “You don’t get to tell the marble what to do. If you embrace it in its natural state the marble will reveal its form to you.” Meaning, no matter how hard one tries with a chisel and hammer the natural properties of the material itself will determine how it can be formed. This is my approach to therapy. To accept each client exactly as they are and allow them the space to choose and direct their own growth.

You Ready? Ready to work? Because therapy is work. It's a commitment, not only to yourself, but to the ones you love. Our team of Elite therapists embrace the unconventional. In a world where individuality is often subdued, we stand out by celebrating our uniqueness. Our practice goes beyond traditional therapy; it's an exploration of SELF-discovery, integrating elements of creativity, mindfulness, and holistic well-being. We go deep! I have seen miracles in real life I cannot say enough about the power of therapy. IF you're ready, we're ready to see you through this. Let's get to work. Congratulations in advance on your new life.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Telluride, Colorado. I provide individual psychotherapy to adult and late adolescent patients. I also provide teletherapy to patients in Colorado and Louisiana. My approach to psychotherapy is grounded in the belief that change takes practice and that our early relationships and past experiences influence our current circumstances. I believe that through our work together in therapy, you can learn to better use the resources you have, develop new coping skills, gain insight into patterns of behavior and relationships, and discover an emotional freedom and healing.

I offer a holistic, integrative approach to psychotherapy and tailor it to the emotional, physical, and creative needs of each client. I bring a wealth of life experience to my practice to complement my clinical expertise. I am an active and empathetic listener and understand that developing a strong therapeutic relationship depends on establishing safety and trust. I try to respond to each person in a curious, collaborative, and direct way. Together we try to find a common language, in words and through the body, that opens the path for each person to express what they need to express.

Unresolved childhood trauma has a lingering impact. You may look back on certain events or relationships and feel overwhelmed by painful emotions, hurtful memories, and confusion. You might struggle to set boundaries, honor your values, express your needs, or be kind to yourself. Childhood trauma might also be a reason you feel stuck in relationship patterns, manage stress in unhealthy ways, feel disconnected from your body or emotions, or struggle with perfectionism and shame. If this is you, I'm so glad you are here. You deserve to heal, to feel safe, to be the one who decides how your life goes moving forward.

If you are looking to understand yourself better and develop an honest, open relationship with your (human) therapist, I might be a good fit for you. I have helped people survive and heal from trauma, loss, and disappointment to find a greater sense of agency in their lives. My practice is informed by research and theory, but I try to use everyday, non-technical language in my work. If you have avoided therapy (or returning to therapy) because you are afraid of being judged, my harm-reduction, collaborative approach may be a good fit for you.

Oftentimes we find ourselves struggling to break from long-standing patterns that force us to be rigid in the ways we relate to the world around us and the world within in us. These patterns, which seek consistent expression in our daily lives inhibit us from experiencing true presence during the most precious moments of our existence while hindering our pursuit of success. I work with individuals, couples, and families who seek to free themselves from these damaging patterns so that a more flexible, authentic way of relating to the world can emerge.

Are you currently finding it difficult exploring your emotions? Anger? Fear? Shame? Sadness? Does it seem that wondering about these emotions cause some anxiety and stress? Depression even? Do you feel family and friends don't understand? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you likely can benefit from addressing those thoughts through therapy where there is Confidentiality, Support, Empathy and No Judgement.

Everyone, including me, goes through tough seasons! From feelings of fear & sadness to an overall dissatisfaction with life, we’ve all been there. Whether you're a young person trying to overcome social stressors or prepping to transition to or from college or the workforce, our care and coaching can help you achieve success from the inside-out. In addition, I can also help the entire family navigate through teen years, and strengthen family bond. Lastly, I can help to bring couples closer than ever before. Couples gain skills that garner success from the dating & pre-marital stages to the "empty-nest” stage.

Life can be filled with challenges that often feel overwhelming and sometimes appear as unsolvable. Finding the individualized support, you need to collaborate on conceptualizing and implementing solutions is paramount to maximizing outcomes. I aim to assist you on your emotional growth journey by providing a judgement free space oriented towards gaining deeper insights that lead to a healthier and happier life. I utilize an eclectic approach to counseling, exploring which theoretical interventions are the best fit for the problem and person.

Thank you for taking the time to review my profile! Since 2006, I have been helping adults address a variety of concerns, including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, self-esteem, and trauma. The relationship you have with a counselor is one of the most unique relationships you will ever have. I believe this is a collaborative relationship where we work together to help you make the changes you want to make in your life. I also believe in bringing creativity and the arts into sessions to help you look at your struggles and obstacles in a different way. I am a member of the New Orleans Jung Seminar.

Academic burnout: where your motivation is not just on vacation – it's taken an indefinite leave of absence. Maybe you are way past the point of even humor. Are you a student, doctor, lawyer or professor working in academia or the field who is just DONE? I specialize in helping academics, intellectuals, and high-net worth individuals get their spark back. I truly understand how demotivating the systems that you operate in can be, because I have lived them myself, and because I hear stories every day that most people wouldn’t even think about sharing with anybody. Or, maybe something in your personal life is dominating your focus.
