About
Over 14 years of experience, my person-centered practice is rooted in providing a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where you are fully heard, respected, and empowered to navigate life’s challenges on your own terms.
I enjoy working with clients who are feeling stressed, anxious, stuck, or unmotivated and are ready for things to change. Whether you’re navigating life changes, taking on new challenges, or seeking more balance, I'm ready to work with you as you explore and grow. I provide a supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and encouraged. Together, we can focus on building healthier coping skills, improving your relationships, and creating a blueprint to help you move forward with more confidence and clarity.
My approach is collaborative and person-centered, meaning that you set the agenda and guide the process at a pace you’re comfortable with. I'll help you to clarify your goals, reflect on what’s most important to you, and highlight areas for growth. Together, we’ll create a clear path forward and help you stay accountable to yourself.
In our work together, I hope to create a space where you can express yourself without judgement. I'll help you to set meaningful personal goals and develop practical steps to reach them. My hope is that you leave each session feeling supported, understood, and ready to work on making the changes that you want to see for yourself.

As someone who believes we are more alike than different, I strive to show unconditional positive regard for all the individuals I work with.
I’m Ne-Juan Shaul, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Counseling from Xavier University of Louisiana. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), while also exploring the ways culture, core beliefs, values, and motivation shape how we think, feel, and behave. I work with adults and teenagers experiencing anger, anxiety, depression, delusional disorder, and relationship conflicts.
I’m down-to-earth, easy to talk to, and nonjudgmental. I believe therapy should feel approachable and collaborative, so I strive to create a relaxed environment where you can be yourself while still doing meaningful work. I meet clients where they are, treat the whole person, and believe that people have the power and ability to make meaningful changes in their lives. At the same time, therapy is a partnership—you have to be willing to show up, come prepared to engage, and take an active role in the process. I won’t do the work for you, but I’ll be there to provide the tools, support, and encouragement along the way.
Deciding to start counseling can be one of the most challenging steps you take. Inviting a stranger into your personal life isn’t easy, and I can’t promise that therapy will always be comfortable or that you’ll get exactly where you initially imagined. What I can promise is that if you come willing to be honest, engaged, and ready to work, we’ll work together to help you move toward a place that feels healthier and more manageable than where you started.

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.

Individual therapy, also known as Individual therapy, allows people to engage in private sessions with a skilled therapist, counselor, or psychologist. The core objective of individual therapy is to establish a secure and confidential setting where you can openly discuss whatever emotional, psychological, or behavioral challenges you face. Through these one-on-one sessions, the client and therapist work together to delve into, comprehend, and ultimately find solutions for the issues at hand in their life.
Individual therapy unfolds in a structured process, commencing with an initial assessment in which the therapist gathers essential information about your history, concerns, and objectives. Together, you and your therapist collaboratively establish specific, attainable goals for your sessions, which can encompass symptom alleviation, personal development, or finding solutions to particular challenges.
