We'll talk about what's bothering you and look for patterns that might be keeping you stuck. Together, we'll figure out new ways to think about your experiences and handle difficult situations. You can talk about emotions, address past trauma, and better understand yourself—all moving at whatever speed feels comfortable.

I don't sit back and analyze you. We work together. I bring training and perspective to help you see things differently and develop tools that fit your life.

There's no standard answer because everyone's timeline is different. Some people get what they need in a few months. Others work through complex trauma or major life changes over a longer period.

We'll regularly check in about your progress and goals. You're in control, and we can adjust based on what's working. During our initial consultation, we'll talk about what you want to address so you have a better sense of what to expect.

You can expect warmth, acceptance, and care. I meet you where you are without judgment. I listen, and I work with you rather than telling you what to do.

I understand how past experiences affect your life today, and I respect your pace and boundaries. Some days you might want to tackle difficult topics. Other days you might need to focus on coping skills or just talk about what's happening now. All of that is fine.

Yes. You can be completely yourself here without judgment. I have deep respect for diverse identities and experiences, especially the unique challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals and people who have experienced trauma or systemic oppression.

Your identity isn't something to fix or change. My job is helping you embrace who you are while building the skills and confidence to deal with a world that isn't always accepting.

You'll likely notice subtle shifts first—maybe you feel more comfortable being yourself, you respond differently to situations that used to trigger you, or you find yourself speaking up in ways you couldn't before. Progress isn't always linear, and changes often happen in small, meaningful moments rather than dramatic breakthroughs.

Some clients notice they're sleeping better, feeling less anxious, or approaching relationships with more confidence and clarity. Others find that old patterns don't have the same power anymore. We'll regularly check in about what's shifting for you, and I'll help you recognize progress you might not notice on your own.

Yes! Many clients find telehealth just as effective as in-person sessions, and some actually prefer it. It offers convenience and comfort while maintaining the same therapeutic connection and depth of work. All sessions are secure and HIPAA-compliant, and they're designed to feel warm and personal despite the virtual format.

I offer both telehealth and in-person sessions, so we can find the format that works best for you. Telehealth is available throughout Louisiana and South Carolina, and in-person sessions are available at my Metairie and Uptown offices. You must be physically located in a state where I am licensed at the time of any telehealth session.

Sessions are 60 minutes and the standard rate is $150.

I am currently in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna/Evernorth, Aetna Better Health of Louisiana, Healthy Blue Louisiana, AmeriHealth Caritas Louisiana, Humana Healthy Horizons Louisiana, Louisiana Healthcare Connections, Medicare, and Medicare managed care plans. Insurance participation is subject to change, so I recommend verifying your coverage directly with your insurer before scheduling.

You can request an appointment directly through the scheduler on this website, or reach out through the contact form, email, or phone if you have questions first. Once you've completed your intake paperwork through the Client Portal, we'll get your first session on the calendar. I offer telehealth Monday through Friday, and in-person sessions Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at my Metairie office, or Tuesdays at my Uptown New Orleans office.

Life happens, and I completely understand that sometimes you need to change your appointment. Just reach out at least 24 hours before your scheduled time and we can reschedule without any issues.

Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice, or missed appointments, are charged a $75 fee — this isn't billed to insurance and is a direct charge to the card on file. As a courtesy, I waive one late cancellation/no-show fee per year. This fee doesn't apply if your services are billed to Louisiana Medicaid, though three late cancellations or no-shows within a 12-month period will result in discharge from services with referrals provided.
