Do you feel as though you are trying to climb out of a hole but the sides get steeper and steeper as you scratch at the sides? Or maybe you have been in the hole so long you have lost the will to try to climb. Or maybe you help everyone else climb out of their proverbial hole that you don't even know you are stuck in a hole yourself. Whatever the case is, I would love to help support you to get back to your feet. I would love to work with you through your trauma, grief, addiction, anxiety/depression, relationship issues. I believe you can, day by day, reach the place you want to be and I believe I can be a good support for you.

Is it difficult to manage your distress, anxiety and other intense emotions? Are you reading self-help and mental health Facebook/Instagram posts that you identify with? Don't know where to go from there? Therapy can help. Having someone support and guide you in understanding how you respond to the pressures of life, can have a tremendous relief in your stress, anxiety or how you feel and think about yourself. Relief and growth comes from learning what served you in the past is no longer working for you in the present. Together we can begin this journey and help you make changes to get to where you want to be.

Waitlist for new clients
Leading others through ministry has been rewarding, but the constant grind has brought on exhaustion, chronic unease, physical problems, and anxiety. Unfortunately, these are "normal" in your life. You’ve had to press forward to achieve goals and suppress your own needs. When others see your life, they see someone who has it together, but you know the chaos inside. You have ideals you never seem to meet, leaving you feeling demoralized. You would give almost anything to have real REST, but no matter what you try, you cannot relax or find peace. You know this is not how you are meant to live.

Accepting Louisiana (in-person in the New Orleans area or virtual) and Texas (virtual) clients. In life, challenges and transitions are inevitable; because of this, self-preservation is key. Therapy provides the opportunity for one to become the best version of themselves. I work to help clients understand and identify their own strengths, incorporating coping skills while processing aspects of the past to create an understanding of the causation of our behaviors. Helping others work through transitional periods of life such as life, careers, relationships, school, etc., has also been a part of my clinical skills.
