Our therapists provide couples therapy in Lafayette, LA

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.

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.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with five years of experience supporting individuals and couples who don’t fit neatly into conventional boxes. I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ clients, members of poly and kink communities, individuals healing from religious trauma, and those exploring alternative spiritual paths. I am committed to creating a space where your identity is respected and your lived experience is honored.

I earned my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Adams State University. My approach is affirming, trauma-informed, and person-centered. I help clients unpack shame, rebuild self-trust, and develop tools that support authentic, values-aligned living.

If you’ve been surviving for a long time and are ready to start living on your own terms, we can work together. You don’t have to do this alone or settle for a therapist who doesn’t understand your experiences. When you’re ready, I’m here to help you take that first step forward.
