About me

I am currently a certified school counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana. I have over 12 years of experience working with children and families as a school counselor. I have had specialized training in applied suicide intervention (ASIST), play therapy, bully prevention and currently hold a tele-mental health certification. I have previously provided anger management classes for students and parents, worked on youth suicide prevention, and was the coordinator of an afterschool program for middle school students. I have worked with students that with many different issues including depression, suicidal ideation, non-suicidal self harm, sexual orientation confusion, trauma and anxiety.

My counseling style is meeting my clients where they are at present and providing a safe place just to be; without fear of judgement. My approach to therapy is client centered, solution focused and cognitive behavioral. I am not adverse to trying new approaches if I feel that it will help my client achieve their goals for counseling.

I believe even the strongest people sometimes need extra support. It takes courage to ask for help. If you are ready to take the next steps, I will be your partner in building a strong healthy future. I hope to hear from you soon.
