Therapists in Lecompte, LA

My name is Nicole Rabalais. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Louisiana #11992. I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Master of Science in Social Work in 2008. I have been working in the field since that time in various positions: caseworker, therapeutic houseparent at a foster group home, mental health rehabilitation specialist, and now as a group therapist for an intensive outpatient program. My overall focus is on psychological wellness through 1) purposeful living and 2) healthy relationships. Purposeful Living I will help you determine your particular values and priorities and identify the obstacles that prevent you from living a life according to those values. I also places a heavy focus on finding balance in the various aspects of one's life (work, relationships, recreation, health) to create fulfillment. Many of my methods are derived from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Healthy Relationships When dealing with this aspect of therapy, I focus mainly on assertiveness training/interpersonal effectiveness and interpersonal boundaries. Assertiveness and interpersonal effectiveness training will help you to get your needs met while preserving positive relationships. Learning about interpersonal boundaries will help you understand where your locus stops and where another person's begins. Before we begin our work together, I ask you to fill out a short assessment to determine whether we are a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you. - Nicole NOTE: I can only work with patients within the state of Louisiana. I will also require identifying information so that I am in compliance with the standards of the National Association of Social Workers.

Welcome! My name is Jennifer Rochel and I am licensed clinical social worker. If you are exploring better help, it is likely that you are struggling with something significant in your life. I'd like to help. Finding the right counselor that you feel comfortable with is important to have a good alliance in meeting your goals. I believe that creating a safe environment for my client and developing a caring relationship is critical to successful therapy. I'd like to tell you about myself so you can see if we are a good fit. I have been a social worker for more than 15 years and have experience working with people from all different backgrounds who are struggling with a wide variety of challenges. Much of my experience has been working with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and mood disorders. I have experience working with children and families in the child protection system, school system, and private practice setting. I use a person-centered, holistic, multicultural, and integrative approach in treatment. This means I begin where you are and tailor the treatment approach to your needs while being sensitive to how your individual cultural identities and lifestyle choices impact your experience. I primarily use evidence-based techniques including cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused counseling.

Hi there! My name is Kacey Ardoin, and I am a clinical social worker licensed in Louisiana, Texas, Arizona, and Utah. I have been practicing in the social work field for about 9 years. I received my Bachelor of Science degree from The University of Georgia, and then went on to pursue my Master of Social Work degree with a clinical concentration. I have worked with clients in multiple settings and have experience with both group and individual therapy. My work has been primarily focused on helping people overcome depression and anxiety, especially as it relates to improving their overall health (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual). One of my greatest passions is suicide prevention, especially working with survivors of suicide loss. I have also worked in addiction and substance abuse recovery, and I greatly enjoyed seeing people reach the other side of their struggles. Other areas that I enjoy working with include relationship issues, self-esteem issues, and grief. My counseling style is empathetic and person-centered. I believe everyone deserves to be heard and treated with mutual respect. I align with a person-centered, solution-focused therapy model, while also using cognitive-behavioral therapy and reality therapy techniques. I am also certified as a Problem Solving Treatment Practitioner and like to incorporate these principles into sessions when they may be helpful. I especially enjoy working with people who are ambivalent about making a change in their lives, and I enjoy utilizing motivational interviewing techniques when possible. If you are feeling stuck, there is a reason - and I would love to work through that with you! Whether this is your first time in counseling or your hundredth time, I believe you have the power to break down whatever wall is standing in your way today. It takes strength to reach out for support, and for that, I want to congratulate you on your courage today! Thank you for your time and I look forward to working together.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I have been practicing in the mental health field for the past nine years with individuals, couples, and groups. I have worked with a wide range of issues including, but not limited to, anxiety, relationship issues, communication, conflict resolution, grief, and addiction. Change is one of the hardest but ultimately most rewarding experiences a person can have. However, for change to happen, we must be willing to step out of the comfort zones we create in order to learn new skills and perspectives that we can then incorporate in our daily lives. I approach counseling as though each client is “unique” and not a product of their diagnosis. My objective in therapy is to provide a Holistic approach incorporating Client-Centered Therapy, Solution-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and empowering principles to integrate therapeutic measures to focus on the whole system: mind, body, and spirit. I have practiced these mental health therapies successfully with children, adolescents, and adults by empowering them to decrease their anxiety, depression, and trauma symptoms, increasing frustration tolerance, and eliminating harmful substance abuse, among other presenting mental health issues. Should you choose to work with me, I look forward to walking with you on your therapeutic journey to reach your desired destination and become a healthier you.
