Depression
Victoria Labonte
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LPC
Depression is more than sadness. I can mean you are feeling hopeless, helpless, less motivated, poor concentration, loss of sleep, and others. Sometimes, a person is depressed due to a life event, such as a death/grief, and sometimes a person can have depression that starts in their youth and continues. I have worked with client in multiple settings where they have been through crisis situations, suicidal, homicidal, extremely depressed or mildly depressed. Everyone's depression will look different!

John Burkin
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC, LPCC, LCPC, CPL, Registered Member MBACP
Depression is real. It comes in many forms and I have helped people heal from major depressive episodes in which loss of hope has occurred. I worked many years in an inpatient psychiatric facility and have helped those recovering from severe depression. In my private practice, I work to help client avert their depression from falling to such levels of abyss by promoting self-care, improving self-esteem and identifying their personal desires that focus on real reasons to live and thrive.

Baton Rouge is home to Louisiana State University and serves as Louisiana's state capital, creating a therapy community shaped by student mental health demand, the pressures of government and healthcare careers, and the particular stressors of a Deep South city navigating racial and economic inequity. The city's African American community — which comprises roughly half the population — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma, community resilience, and the psychological weight of systemic inequity. Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center and Ochsner Health provide institutional mental health resources, while LSU's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local community. Baton Rouge's location in a high-flood-risk region means climate-related anxiety and disaster recovery are recurring themes that local therapists address alongside individual concerns.
