About me
As a licensed therapist in Louisiana with three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life transitions and healing journeys. My practice centers on addressing family dynamics, trauma recovery, and personal empowerment. I bring a compassionate, culturally responsive approach to working with women, young adults, military veterans, and survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence.
My therapeutic work focuses on helping clients develop stronger communication skills, rebuild self-esteem, and navigate challenging interpersonal relationships. I understand the intricate ways personal experiences shape our emotional landscapes and am committed to creating a supportive, affirming therapeutic environment where individuals can explore their strengths and develop resilient coping strategies.
Drawing from extensive clinical experience, I offer a warm, understanding approach that honors each person's unique story and cultural background. My goal is to walk alongside you as you cultivate healing, personal growth, and emotional well-being.
