Life as Art Studio was conceived to help individuals, families, groups and organizations find their truth, find their voice. The mission is to work together to unearth talents and unblock creativity. To do so I use primarily action methods through my extensive training in psychodrama. The belief is that most of us need to increase our spontaneity in order become more authentic, true to who we really are. We may suffer because we have lost or never found who that true self is. Maybe we have been taught to think we must be some one else's idea of who and how we should be in the world.

As a therapist with 20+ years of experience, I am dedicated to helping you achieve a healthier state of mind. We provide telehealth sessions only, as telehealth has become an increasingly popular option for clients seeking counseling from the comfort of their own homes/offices. Embracing Life Counseling utilizes a holistic approach to treatment; addressing anxiety, depression, and stress management through evidence-based therapies which acknowledge the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. We believe true healing comes from addressing the root causes of mental health issues, rather than simply treating symptoms.

I believe that lasting, profound change in therapy relies on a relationship built on trust and respect. I listen to people without judgment and practice transparency about the therapeutic process. Together, we explore the shape of your distress - how it impacts you, how it came to be, and how to integrate it - so that you can remember your power, your tenderness, your joy.

*Be aware I am not currently taking any new patients due to my schedule being completely full for the foreseeable future. I believe that healing can happen through the process of empathic and supportive counseling. I work with mood issues, personality disorders, grief, substance use and much more. I utilize a culturally sensitive and holistic psychodynamic style of therapy. This approach encourages development in all areas of life (relationships, thoughts, behaviors, emotions, careers, etc.), and pays special attention to unconscious factors and cultural identity (race, religion, sexuality, gender, disability, etc).

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.
