Our therapists provide online therapy in Baton Rouge, LA

Hi my name is Desiree Shaw and I am a LPC. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Louisiana State University. I also earned a Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling from University of Phoenix. I work with adult individuals who have experienced grief, loss, chronic illness and those going through tough life transitions.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as my therapeutic model. I help you challenge negative thoughts and help you find thoughts that are more useful.

With 6 years of experience, I know how heavy life can feel when things are out of place. My practice is a safe, warm space completely free of judgment where you can truly be heard. I meet you exactly where you are with deep empathy.

I am Jacqueline Lloyd, a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor with 21 years of experience in the field. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions, and I remain deeply committed to fostering growth, resilience, and healing. My goal is to provide a supportive and culturally responsive space where clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped with practical tools to create meaningful and lasting change.

I hold a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Southern University A&M College. I draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and person-centered therapy, tailoring each session to meet my clients’ unique needs.

I understand how overwhelming life’s challenges can feel, and I want my clients to know they do not have to face them alone. Whether you are feeling stuck, seeking clarity, or ready for transformation, I am here to walk alongside you with care and compassion as you take the next step toward healing.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor serving Louisiana, specializing in supporting young adults and individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, identity exploration, and social isolation. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental, and culturally responsive space where clients can feel understood, build self-awareness, develop effective coping skills, and create meaningful change. My goal is to meet each client where they are while helping them recognize their strengths and move toward greater resilience, confidence, and overall wellbeing.

I use an integrative, strengths-based approach that combines evidence-based techniques with genuine curiosity and compassion. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build practical coping skills, and develop greater self-awareness and emotional resilience. I tailor therapy to your needs while creating a space where you can feel safe, heard, and empowered to grow.

You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Wherever you are in your journey, you deserve a space where you feel heard, valued, and supported. I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward healing and a life that feels more aligned with who you are. When you’re ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment and take that first step.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, therapist and author with more than 13 years of experience in private practice, supporting adults through life's difficult and often unexpected seasons. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, relationship concerns, stress, and major life transitions. Many come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about what comes next. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to gain insight, develop practical tools, and move toward greater clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. I draw from cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, strengths-based, and trauma-informed approaches, tailored to your needs. I especially enjoy helping clients navigate grief and loss, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

Life can bring seasons that leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next, but you don't have to navigate them alone. Therapy can be a place to reconnect with yourself and move forward in a way that feels meaningful to you. Wherever you are in your journey, I'll meet you there with compassion, curiosity, and respect.
