Therapists in Downsville, LA

Hello - My approach to therapy is based on the conviction that our current behaviors are a function of our system and relationships with others. I try to learn from my client's experiences to develop a better understanding of who they are, how they developed their sense of self, their worldview, and behavior. Together, I believe we can identify and overcome the obstacles that prevent you from living the life you desire. I customize my extensive training to best suit your healing and goals. I combine cognitive behavioral and experiential techniques in working with individuals and couple. I approach counseling from a systemic view point and incorporate CBT and solution-focused perspective with the focus on helping clients create solutions to problems they may face. I come to a session with a true interest in people, a sincere desire to understand the emotional struggle, and a fundamental respect for one’s personal value and self-determination. Most importantly, I am a new parent to an incredible baby boy whom you may hear in the background occasionally.
