Hello and welcome! My name is Ann Bevan and I am a licensed clinical social worker here in Louisiana. I completed my graduate training at Tulane where I earned a Master's Degree in Social Work. I have worked for more than 20 years in the field in several different capacities. Over that period of time, I have met with and supported people facing medical challenges, loss, grief, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.
I have been described as being a good listener, one who is compassionate, understanding, patient, and respectful. My goal is to provide a safe space where individuals can talk about any topic that is weighing on their hearts or minds. I strive to help individuals move through their challenging times or issues in order to gain a better feeling about themselves, others, and the world. I draw upon various psychologies and therapeutic philosophies. I have used cognitive behavioral therapy, insight, Jungian psychology, the Enneagram, and Mindfulness.
Congratulations for reaching out. Should you decide to make an appointment, it will be a privilege to accompany you on your journey.
