Welcome! My name is Sade Beaulieu and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I received my Masters degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from Louisiana State University Health Science Center. I have various experiences in working with children, adolescents, and adults within the mental health field. I also conduct group therapy at a local Behavioral Health Hospital working with both adolescents and adults who may struggle with depression, anxiety, suicidal idealization, trauma, grief and substance abuse. My treatment approach is eclectic, and collaborative in nature; I draw from a variety of therapeutic techniques and approaches (e.g. Existential, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Belief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Music Therapy, and Trauma Focused therapy) to best assist with identifying the needs of my clients. My goal is to help you process your feelings, build strong relationships and empower you to becoming a better you. At times I might recommend reading a book, providing you a handout, or even have you complete a worksheet to aid you in achieving your goals. I have recognized that by treating individuals mental health, I am doing more than just treating a diagnosis I'm treating a person that brings their own unique struggles, background, needs, values and beliefs. From the moment you start working with me your specific needs such as health, happiness and wellness are a top priority. I look forward with working with you!

You’re looking for someone who can understand what you’re going through, what you’ve been through. You want someone you can trust to tell the things you tell no one else. You need someone to guide through what you’re going through and help you get to the other side; a side you probably can’t even see because you’re currently in the middle of it. Don’t lose hope. Never lose hope. Nothing is permanent and change is inevitable. Change can be scary. Don’t let that little voice inside your head tell you you’re not good enough, or you don’t deserve to find happiness. Don’t let the change that needs to happen be for the worst. I can help teach you some ways to cope with your depression; to help you get out of bed everyday and do what you need to do. I can work with you through your anxiety and teach you the best way to handle it as it occurs in your daily life. If you’re feeling stuck and unhappy, I can help guide you through it. I know it sounds corny but it’s true. I can also teach you the skills you need to keep your addiction at bay; if that’s what you need. If you have trauma you need to work through; I’m here for that as well. My name is Kelly and I am a Licensed Counselor in Texas. I’ve worked with parents who’ve had their children removed by CPS. I’ve worked with those in crisis and connected them to services on a mobile crisis team in Georgia. I’ve worked in the foster care system in Texas for a CPA. And right now I’m balancing my own private practice as well as working with the most difficult population I’ve come into contact with as of yet, teenagers with substance abuse and addiction in a treatment facility in Houston, TX. I’ve been practicing for over 5 years and have expertise ranging from: depression, anxiety, substance use, transition and adjustment issues, life changes, and ADHD symptom management among others. I take what I’ve learned and meet you where you currently are in your life. I use your strengths and build upon them to develop the skills you need to get through what you’re going through. I take the time to get to know you before beginning the necessary work on what brought you to therapy. You are not your problems, nor should you be treated like that. Therapy is driven by you and the modality used also depends on what best fits for you. I use motivational interviewing to get to know you, your though processes, and how you see the world before choosing between a solution focused method with cognitive behavioral techniques to help you form the necessary connections between your thoughts and your actions. Once that connection is established we can change your thinking, which will change the behavior you see as mal-adaptive. It's your life and it should be your therapy too.

The human experience is a path of struggle and hardship. However, its also uniquely beautiful and worthwhile. Growth can be uncomfortable and awkward, but it’s also the foundation of self-evolution and growth. My goal is to help you process life events, trauma, mental health and acquire resilience. I take a holistic approach in managing trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relationships, life changes, and burn-out/compassion fatigue. I am a mental health advocate and believe in education to help reduce stigma and to help encourage growth. Working with adolescents, young adults, veterans, and first responders I understand that healing is not always a linear process and I take pride in meeting you where you are. “Vulnerability is the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, courage, empathy, and creativity. It is the source of hope, empathy, accountability, and authenticity. If we want greater clarity in our purpose or deeper and more meaningful spiritual lives, vulnerability is the path.” -Brené Brown

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with over 5 years of experience working with diverse populations that span from young to older adults. I understand and value that every person is unique with different life experiences. Because of that, I aim to provide empathetic and trauma-informed approaches that are specifically tailored to each individual. I believe in every person’s capacity for change and healing, especially when provided with the right tools, strategies, knowledge, and understanding. My therapy style is warm, non-judgmental, at times humorous, and collaborative. I approach each session through a person-centered perspective, which means I strive to empower each client as the expert of their own lives. I utilize a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Therapy. Through collaborative efforts, I aim to provide relevant psychoeducation based on each client's needs and establishing individualized goals that foster growth and healing. Together, we would navigate through difficult experiences, work to bolster self-worth, cultivate mindfulness, and develop effective coping strategies for any presenting concern or symptoms. Additionally, we would begin to identify, understand, and change any unpleasant thoughts and emotions, and unhelpful behavior patterns that may be contributing to present distress. Ultimately, my objective is to support and meet each person where they are at, without judgment, to help assist in creating sustainable, realistic changes and alleviate distressing symptoms which can allow for a more meaningful, authentic life. I hope that we can work together can create a sense of empowerment and healing to navigate personal and life challenges with resilience and authenticity to successfully reclaim control over your life. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

Hello! Welcome to the BetterHelp community! My name is Dorian Turner and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Chicago, IL. I have been providing psychotherapy for a wide variety of issues and populations for 5 + years. I graduated from Chicago State University with a Master in Social Work. I have spent most of my career working with youth in the school setting, seniors and the disabled in the community mental health setting as well as in the hospital setting. I would describe my approach as goal oriented, and client centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). Both modalities are hands-on, practical approaches to problem-solving. CBT treatment usually involves efforts to change thinking patterns and or behaviors. The goals are to change patterns of thinking or behavior that are behind difficult situations, and so change the way they feel. This helps people identify faulty or unhelpful ways of thinking and learn better ways of coping with life's full variety of stressors.
