About
As someone who has experienced personal loss, including the passing of my father in April 2021 and my grandmother in July 2022, I bring a compassionate, authentic understanding of grief while creating a safe and supportive space for clients to heal and grow.
I am a licensed professional counselor and clinical director with extensive experience supporting adolescents, adults, and families navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I work with clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about their next steps, and who are seeking healing, clarity, and emotional stability. My goal is to provide a supportive, client-centered space where individuals can build coping skills, process challenges, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.
I use a client-centered, trauma-informed approach integrating CBT, coping skills, and strengths-based techniques. I specialize in trauma, grief, and emotional regulation, helping clients build insight, develop healthy coping strategies, and feel empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.
You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone—I am here to support you with compassion, understanding, and practical tools for change. When you’re ready, I invite you to take that first step toward healing and becoming the best version of yourself.

As a counselor who has struggled with ADHD and social anxiety, I understand the impact that mental health can have on daily life.
Before earning my master’s degree in counseling education, I worked with autistic children in a clinical setting and teenagers in an inpatient setting. I primarily work with children and adolescents experiencing anger, anxiety, and depression, particularly those with ADHD or autism. I also have experience working with adults and families.
I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship where clients feel comfortable enough for me to be honest, direct, and straightforward when needed. I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy, to meet each client where they are and tailor treatment to their individual needs.
I don’t just believe that people have the power to change—I know they do. I’ve seen it happen. When we work together toward a goal that is meaningful to you, I believe you can make lasting, meaningful change.

As someone who understands how life's challenges can affect our emotional well-being, I am passionate about helping others build resilience, strengthen relationships, and find hope through evidence-based, compassionate care.
Hello, I'm Katrenia White-Law, MA, LCPC, a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping individuals, couples, families, and adolescents navigate life's challenges with compassion, evidence-based care, and practical solutions. With years of experience in behavioral health, community mental health, family systems, substance use treatment, and telehealth counseling, I have had the privilege of working with clients facing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, relationship conflict, addiction, life transitions, emotional regulation difficulties, and family stress.
Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or uncertain about how to move forward. Others are seeking healthier relationships, improved communication, greater self-confidence, recovery from addiction, or effective coping strategies to manage stress and create lasting change.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore their experiences, build resilience, develop new skills, and move toward healing, hope, and a more fulfilling life.

I believe that everyone has the ability to grow and create meaningful change, and I use a compassionate, strengths-based approach to help clients feel confident as they navigate life's challenges.
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. Whether you're navigating school, career, family responsibilities, or personal growth, I believe each person's experiences and goals are unique. 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.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Baton Rouge, 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 Baton Rouge 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.
Anxiety therapy is conducted both in person and online, depending on the individual’s preferences and their therapist’s availability. We suggest choosing the option that best suits your needs.
On average, people can tend to attend 15 to 20 session of anxiety therapy (five or more months). 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.
Yes, it is worth going to therapy for anxiety. If you are struggling with regular anxious thoughts and feelings that are affecting your day-to-day life or you suspect that you have an anxiety disorder, you should seek expert anxiety help.
Anxiety is one of the most common forms of mental illness. It is estimated that over a quarter of people in the US alone will struggle with an anxiety disorder at some point in their lives. Unfortunately, a significant portion of those dealing with mental health conditions never get the help they need to feel better.
Seeing a therapist may seem daunting, especially for someone who is dealing with anxiety. There is also a persistent stigma surrounding mental health issues that causes many people to feel like visiting a professional counselor is a sign of weakness.
But there’s no shame in getting support for your mental health just as you would get treatment for a physical illness. If you’re struggling with anxiety and it’s getting in the way of your life, it may be time to seek out help. Experienced counselors are standing by at Thriveworks Counseling in Baton Rouge, LA. Reach out to us today to get started.
Anxiety can take many forms; while there are common symptoms, every individual may experience it in a unique way. One of the most common types of anxiety is called generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Individuals with GAD experience anxiety symptoms on a nearly daily basis for a period of at least six months. This may or may not be related to a specific stressor. Other individuals experience anxiety more acutely in the form of intense panic attacks. These can be characterized by difficulty breathing, feeling faint or dizzy, chest pains, or an overall feeling of a loss of control.
While there are many types of anxiety, here are some of the most common symptoms:
If you’ve been feeling anxiety symptoms for two weeks or more, it may be time to get help. Speaking to a mental health professional at Thriveworks Counseling in Baton Rouge, LA can be the first step towards taking back control of your life.
One of the most powerful types of therapy is called talk therapy. For example, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can help to identify negative thought patterns that may be contributing to your anxiety. A mental health counselor may also work with you to develop coping skills so you can begin to tolerate uncomfortable emotions and lessen symptoms. Some clients are also prescribed medication as part of their treatment.
Exposure therapy is another common method therapists use to treat anxiety. If there is a specific trigger that is causing high levels of anxiety, a therapist may slowly expose you to the situation to gradually reduce your negative reaction. A trained anxiety therapist can help you achieve this goal in a careful and helpful way.
During therapy, you may also learn various relaxation techniques to reduce your anxiety, such as deep breathing and mindfulness exercises. As a result, many clients find they are able to approach situations that they previously avoided.
At Thriveworks Counseling, we want to ensure you have access to the mental health services you need to live a healthy and fulfilling life. Online counseling by video makes it easier than ever to improve your mental health even from the comfort of your own home. Evening and weekend sessions are also available and we accept many major insurance plans.
You don’t have to let anxiety disorders stop you from living life on your own terms. Schedule an appointment today with a qualified anxiety counselor at Thriveworks Counseling in Baton Rouge, LA.
