Welcome! My name is Annetta Starr. I have a Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from University of Louisiana at Monroe. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana. I have worked in the counseling field since 2015 helping clients find success with managing their needs. Some clients need help with anxiety and others need help with addictions. We all have needs. I believe that we each have a responsibility to ourselves to make sure that our basic needs are met, because when we do, we find ourselves functioning at our best and living more fully. My counseling approach is more humanistic/client centered, as I believe that we as individuals already possess the qualities that we need to live fully. I encourage and utilize curiosity, intuition, creativity, humility, and empathy in individualized therapy sessions to help clients close the gap between where they are right now and where they want to be in the future. If you choose to make a commitment to work on meeting your needs, I will commit myself to helping you. I will not give up on you. Taking personal responsibility for ourselves is the first indication that clients have the strength and control to make any changes necessary to live life with fullness. Let’s work together to evaluate what you are doing, thinking, and feeling, and develop plans to help you make choices that will help you meet your needs and have success at getting what you want.

I hold two Masters degrees, one in Medical Anthropology and another in Counseling. I have over 20 years of experience working in behavioral health and in the healthcare field as a therapist, coach, trainer, educator and in various leadership roles at healthcare facilities. I'm a Certified Master Practitioner, Coach and Trainer of Hypnosis, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Time Line Therapy with thousands of hours of experience using NLP in therapy, coaching and training. I see coaching as a process in which you, the client, and I, the coach, having come to understand and trust one another, work as a team to explore and define present problem situations, develop future goals for an improved life and work in a systematic fashion toward realizing those goals. As a coach I believe my professional approach to helping is ultimately to guide people to the powerful realization of the power of self-determination we each have within ourselves with which we can achieve an integrated and holistic state of wellness. I believe that people have all the resources that they need to find happiness and contentment in their lives. Discovering the self-awareness and self-acceptance of these resources can take time to achieve. Some people require only a few coaching sessions to achieve a holistic state of wellness, others need months or years of coaching. You, as a person, are in complete control of our relationship and may terminate it at any time and I will support your decision.
