I am a Professional Licensed Counselor and a National Certified Counselor. I have over 15 years of experience dealing with mental health issues such as depression, ADHD, PTSD, ODD and anxiety as well as other behavioral issues. I have experience working with individuals (ages 4+), families and couples. I believe counseling is a collaborative relationship in which we work together to solve problems in which each person is treated with dignity and respect. Sometimes life becomes overwhelming and we could always use a little extra help.

Many individuals seek the support of psychotherapy at some point in their lives. The assistance of a skilled and caring therapist can have many benefits. While these benefits vary from person to person, just beginning the process of counseling can help ease some of the isolation we all can feel when confronted with difficulties in our lives. Whether you are seeking assistance for anxiety, depression or a history of trauma, need help coping with the stress and hardship of everyday life, or wish to become more accepting of yourself and others, our therapists are here to help.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20+ years of experience. I have worked extensively with children and adolescents over most of those years. However, my practice is not devoted solely to children and adolescents, I also see many adults experiencing difficulties with depression and/or anxiety. Many of the children and adolescents I serve may be struggling with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), parental divorce, depression anger issues or bullying. I work with parents extensively, while working with their children to find strategies that are age appropriate and suitable to meet their needs.

I utilize EMDR and cognitive behavioral therapy as needed. Specialties include, individuals, couples, family therapy and parenting and child/adolescent issues. I practice in the New Orleans area., I have had a psychotherapy practice for over 30 years. I have served on several college and university faculties including having served as an associate professor in psychiatry at Tulane Medical School; a graduate of Tulane University School of Social Work. I have presented original papers at international conferences, am published and have a CD about coping with stress.

Reaching out to a therapist for problems such as ADHD, Anxiety, Depression or Autism Spectrum Disorders can be tough. Finding someone who is empathetic, experienced and effective is important to change! Over the last 15 years I have helped individuals and families with a wide range of issues, and have developed these specialties. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Family Systems theory, while adding an understanding of neuropsychological functioning to help my clients. These methods have been clinically proven and are evidence based treatments.

As an objective trained therapist, my understanding of the complex interrelationships in families, past and present, will assist you and your family to gain insight and balance in how to make positive changes in your life.No two individuals or families are exactly alike and treatment will be based on an individualized basis. Let my extensive experience with individuals, youths, couples and families restore balance to your life and home. Life can get better!
