As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana, I specialize in working with individuals who are experiencing the effects of trauma, anxiety, OCD, depression, or mood-related disorders. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Somatic Therapy, tailored to your unique needs and life story. I offer a safe, supportive, and LGBTQ-affirming space where all parts of you are welcome. Healing can be messy and nonlinear—but you don’t have to go through it alone. I aim to build a collaborative relationship rooted in trust, presence, and possibility.
Our first session is a gentle starting point. We’ll take time to talk about what brings you to therapy, what you’re hoping to change, and what you need to feel safe and supported. I’ll ask questions at a pace that feels comfortable to you—there’s no pressure to share everything at once. Together, we’ll begin making sense of your experiences and identify the goals that feel most important for your healing. You can ask me anything about my approach, and we’ll create a plan that fits you—not the other way around. My hope is that you leave the first session feeling heard, understood, and more grounded than when you arrived.
My greatest strength is my ability to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel genuinely seen and safe to be themselves. I blend compassion with evidence-based structure, helping clients explore difficult emotions while also giving them practical tools they can use right away. Whether you’re working through trauma, navigating identity, or living with intense emotions or personality-related challenges, I stay present, patient, and attuned. Clients often tell me that they appreciate my grounded energy, my ability to understand the deeper layers of what they’re dealing with, and the way I hold space with both warmth and clarity. I show up consistently, openly, and authentically—so you can do the same
My ideal clients are individuals who may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or grief and are looking for a safe, compassionate space to better understand themselves and feel more grounded. I work with clients who may feel disconnected from their emotions or bodies and want to develop healthier ways of coping and navigating life’s challenges. Using a combination of somatic therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I help clients build greater awareness of their emotions, strengthen coping skills, and develop a deeper connection with themselves. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to each person’s unique needs and experiences.

Somatic therapy is a gentle, body-based approach that helps you understand how stress, emotions, and past experiences live not only in your mind, but also in your body. In our work together, we’ll explore the physical sensations, patterns, and cues your body uses to communicate. By slowing down, tuning in, and using tools like breathwork, grounding, and mindful movement, we help your nervous system settle and create space for real healing. This approach is especially supportive for clients navigating trauma, anxiety, chronic stress, or feeling disconnected from themselves. Sessions move at your pace and are collaborative, empowering, and deeply respectful of your boundaries. My goal is to help you feel more regulated, present, and at home in your body—so you can move through life with greater clarity, ease, and resilience.
I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in a practical, compassionate way to help clients better understand and manage difficult emotions, strengthen relationships, and cope with life’s challenges. Together, we work on skills like mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication. I also focus on making DBT feel relevant to your everyday life—not just something you learn in session, but a set of tools you can actually use when things get hard.
