After many years in social work, I've come to believe that the most effective therapy doesn't come from a one-size-fits-all approach, but from meeting you exactly where you are.

With a unique perspective shaped by my own journey through challenges and trauma, I offer an open-minded, non-judgmental space where you can feel truly understood and empowered to heal.

I draw on CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy and specialize in trauma-informed care and grief counseling. Whether processing trauma, facing a crisis, or adjusting to change, I'm here to create a space where you feel heard and empowered.
I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to act as a supportive guide on your journey toward healing. You've already shown immense strength by looking for support.

Hi, I'm an LPC and NCC with a Master of Science in Counseling from Southeastern Louisiana University and three years of experience. I've had the privilege of working with elementary, middle, and high school students, as well as adults of all ages, supporting them through anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns.

I work to create a supportive environment where clients can feel seen, heard, and empowered to make positive changes.
My approach is collaborative, goal-oriented, and supportive. I specialize in working with middle to late adolescents and adults, integrating CBT, SFBT, and Reality Therapy to help clients recognize patterns and build on strengths. I believe therapy is a partnership, and clients can expect a warm, nonjudgmental, culturally responsive space focused on growth.
I understand that beginning therapy can feel like a big step, and I strive to make the process welcoming and comfortable. My goal is to help clients feel seen, heard, and supported as they navigate life's challenges and work toward the changes they want. If you are ready to begin your journey toward growth, I would be honored to support you along the way.

Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in New Orleans, LA can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your day-to-day anxiety or your anxiety disorder.
Anxiety therapy involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Thriveworks New Orleans therapists will then work with you to determine where your anxiety might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.
One of the best ways to deal with anxiety is to learn about your own anxiety: your symptoms, what triggers it, and what coping mechanisms have been effective in the past. When you learn what your anxiety is tied to, it can help you be mindful of what’s really happening as well as prevent and mitigate symptoms by processing and working through the issue in therapy. Other strategies that have been shown to help manage anxiety are meditation, challenging anxious thoughts, exercising, and journaling.
Common symptoms of anxiety include:
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be incredibly effective in treating anxiety and anxiety disorders. Other effective techniques include exposure therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR therapy.

However, this number is heavily dependent on the type of anxiety that’s being treated and its severity, with many choosing to attend anxiety therapy for a longer period of time to ensure its effectiveness long-term.
