Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Louisiana, as well as a Nationally Certified Counselor. I jumped right into the field of counseling after graduating with my undergraduate degree in Psychology. I would say I am able to see the counseling perspective from different viewpoints due to my various positions. My first position in the field was as an Intake Coordinator, which is where you first gather information on a client and get a feel as to which therapist would help to meet their needs. When I started graduate school, I began to see clients in individual and group settings. I am a person who likes a challenge, so I became certified in Anger Management and Substance Abuse. I thoroughly enjoy both mental health and substance abuse. I have now been practicing for 7 years but I have been in this field for 10. I am very passionate about couples, women’s issues and adolescents. I would say my main two approaches I use the most is Humanistic and Cognitive Behavioral. I will always try to meet my client where they are at currently, but that does not mean I will not be direct in helping them move forward. I have been told often by clients that I am very direct and that is what keeps them coming back to see me. So, I am ready to help you, the client, tackling the issues you are facing today, in the past, and any future issues. Looking forward to working on these goals!
