About
Andrew LeBlanc is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a long history of working in mental health and a wide range of experience. He's been in this field since '93 before becoming a social worker and has worked with many different populations from young adults to the senior community.
Andrew received his Master's of Social Work from SUNO School of Social Work. He has also experienced what it is like to be affected by mental health personally and believes this gives him an advantage as a service provider.
Andrew incorporates a variety of techniques into treatment including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based, and strength-based approaches. "I believe that mental health is just as important as physical health and there should be no stigma in seeking assistance," he says. If you think that Andrew might be the right fit for you, don't hesitate to reach out.

As someone who understands how life's challenges can affect our emotional well-being, I am passionate about helping others build resilience, strengthen relationships, and find hope through evidence-based, compassionate care.
Hello, I'm Katrenia White-Law, MA, LCPC, a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping individuals, couples, families, and adolescents navigate life's challenges with compassion, evidence-based care, and practical solutions. With years of experience in behavioral health, community mental health, family systems, substance use treatment, and telehealth counseling, I have had the privilege of working with clients facing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, relationship conflict, addiction, life transitions, emotional regulation difficulties, and family stress.
Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or uncertain about how to move forward. Others are seeking healthier relationships, improved communication, greater self-confidence, recovery from addiction, or effective coping strategies to manage stress and create lasting change.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore their experiences, build resilience, develop new skills, and move toward healing, hope, and a more fulfilling life.

I come from a multidisciplinary and multicultural background and am particularly conscious of the importance culture can play in therapy.
My name is Lonnie Renteria, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 9 years of experience. I provide a safe, judgment-free, supportive space for individuals, couples, and families. I take an experiential approach, helping clients discover truths about their needs, expectations, and hopes. I also specialize in working around trauma and attachment injuries.
I received my Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Argosy University. I am well-versed in emotion-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), narrative therapy, & trauma work. I am continuing to enhance my training in internal family systems models, to be a more patient and empathetic therapist.
I have a genuine interest in your process, and I encourage you to be the best you can be. I believe we all have the capacity to heal and build the life that we want to live. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership and a forum for gaining a better understanding of ourselves, not a place to "get rid of" or "fix" something. Get started today!

As a woman with her own experiences of trauma and loss, I bring a deep understanding of how life's most painful moments can shape us. I also believe, in the midst of these experiences, we deserve the chance to work towards feeling whole again.
Hi, I’m Melissa. I’m passionate about helping people work through and heal from trauma, grief, and loss in all its forms. My approach is shaped by both professional education and lived compassion. I earned my bachelor’s degree from the University of New Orleans and my Master of Social Work from Southern University at New Orleans. Through my education and experience, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of loss. My goal is to provide compassionate support rooted in presence, respect, and care, helping each person navigate their healing journey at their own pace.
I use a humanistic, eclectic approach to create personalized, supportive therapy, tailored to your needs. I will take time to understand your story, honor your strengths, and meet you where you are as you work toward healing, self-awareness, and personal growth.
You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, supported, and encouraged as you take steps toward healing. When you feel ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment and begin the process of caring for yourself.

From a holistic, nonjudgmental perspective, I provide individual and couples counseling, offering compassionate, personalized care through evidence-based techniques tailored to support self-growth and development.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through a wide range of life challenges. I provide general counseling services with a focus on depression, anxiety, trauma-related concerns, grief, stress management, anger management, self-esteem, men’s issues, parenting, marital counseling, and divorce-related concerns.
I earned my master’s degree in human services counseling from the University of New Orleans and hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Southeastern Louisiana University. I use an eclectic, client-centered approach, meeting clients where they are and tailoring therapeutic techniques to support growth, self-awareness, and recovery.
Taking the first step toward counseling can feel overwhelming, whether you are new to therapy or returning after a past experience. You deserve a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. I offer a collaborative, engaging environment to help you move toward clarity, healing, and personal growth.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

At Thriveworks, Trauma/PTSD therapy involves dedicated efforts to address and navigate through past and/or recent traumatic events.

Our Thriveworks providers use Trauma/PTSD therapy treatments like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing EMDR, CBT, and exposure therapy with the goal of helping clients process the traumatic events they have experienced so that they can to start feeling safe and secure again.
The symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can vary but often include:
The best way to overcome PTSD triggers is to seek the assistance of a professional therapist, such as those at Thriveworks, who can help you to understand and treat your PTSD triggers.
In most cases, a therapist who specializes in Trauma/PTSD therapy is the best type of mental health professional to address the symptoms of PTSD.
PTSD/trauma therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
If a client is working through a single traumatic event that occurred as an adult, trauma or PTSD therapy may only take a few months, but in general, it can take a year or more to effectively treat trauma symptoms and PTSD. The duration of treatment is highly dependent on the client and the severity of their symptoms.
The success rate of therapy for PTSD depends entirely on the individual’s symptoms, commitment to attending sessions, and personal abilities.
