Our therapists offer christian counseling in Lafayette, LA

My name is Janea Robinson, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) dedicated to providing compassionate, client-centered care in a welcoming and respectful space. I view therapy as a collaborative process: you are the expert, and I am here to support you through your unique journey. I work with individuals, couples, and families experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, and loss. Whether you are seeking relief from emotional distress, coping skills, self-understanding, healthier relationships, or a sense of hope. Together, we develop practical strategies that support lasting, positive change.

I see myself as an eclectic therapist, combining ideas and styles from a wide range of therapies rather than following cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) specifically. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which is a trauma therapy to assist with processing traumatic events more healthily. 

We will work together to put the control of your life back in your hands. Life throws challenges that can make us feel like we have no options, but together we will change that narrative. Anything that life has thrown at you does not define who you are as a person. Our mistakes or bad choices aren't meant to control us; they're meant to teach us.

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.

Stephanie B. Dean, MA, LPC, is a Christian Counselor with more than 7 years of experience and training in assisting children, teens, adults, and seniors with concerns related to women’s issues, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, attention-deficit disorders (ADHD), family-of-origin issues, low self-esteem, and more. Stephanie possesses special skills and experience in working with patients to uncover core issues and get to the “root of the problem”, especially in cases in which feelings of extreme guilt or shame are involved. Additionally, Mrs. Dean has personal experience and skills in working with individuals who have experienced trauma such as catastrophic events, sexual abuse, physical abuse, or neglect. 

Stephanie earned her Master's degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University and is the founder of Greater Bogalusa Community Center, a nonprofit, human services organization in Bogalusa, LA. She primarily counsels from a client-centered, psychodynamic approach and may employ counseling modalities of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solutions-focused brief therapy (SFBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), motivational interviewing, and “priming” psychology for self-actualization. 

Stephanie seeks to develop a warm and caring relationship with you while collaborating with you to reach your counseling goals. She counsels from a strengths-based, goal-focused perspective while building the client-counselor relationship; she listens with genuine empathy and understands many issues from personal experience. Stephanie believes that all individuals possess the innate ability to create and live any life they choose. 

After many years in social work, I've come to believe that the most effective therapy doesn't come from a one-size-fits-all approach, but from meeting you exactly where you are. I believe in deeply individualized care, partnering with you to identify your goals and help you make rapid, meaningful progress. With a unique perspective shaped by my own journey through challenges and trauma, I offer an open-minded, non-judgmental space where you can feel truly understood and empowered to heal. 

My approach is client-centered and eclectic—I tailor my methods to your unique needs rather than one fixed style. I draw on CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy and specialize in trauma-informed care and grief counseling. Whether processing trauma, facing a crisis, or adjusting to change, I'm here to create a space where you feel heard and empowered.

I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to act as a supportive guide on your journey toward healing. You've already shown immense strength by looking for support. Let's work together to build on that strength - I invite you to book your first appointment today and to begin the next chapter.
