Victoria Labonte
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LPC
Welcome! Looking for a therapist or starting therapy can make anyone feel anxious, especially you haven't been in therapy before. I truly love the field of counseling and am excited to potentially begin a collaborative journey together! I believe that the client is the one who directs where they want therapy to go, with the guidance of a therapist who not only listen, but not be judgmental in the process. My role is to listen empathetically, challenge you when needed, and ultimately address any goals you have. You may be seeking therapy for a particular situation you are currently going through or it may be multiple life events or mental health issues that you have been struggling with for a while. Either way, I am here to be there for you in a therapeutic and collaborative manner. Good luck on your journey!

Renewed Life Solutions
Licensed Professional Counselor, Tonya Ramsey, MS., LPC, NCC, CCTP
As a licensed professional counselor and a proud retired Navy veteran, my heart is deeply invested in empowering individuals like you to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience. I understand that many people face critical mental health issues without the guidance and support they need, often held back by stigma or simple unawareness. It’s my belief that effective mental health management not only clarifies your path but also transforms your dreams into achievable goals, paving the way for a fulfilling and enriched life. By choosing to work with a compassionate and relatable therapist like me, you’re taking a courageous first step toward healing and self-discovery.
With years of experience connecting with clients of all ages and diverse backgrounds, I warmly welcome the unique complexities that each person brings to our work together. My practice is not defined by a single specialty; rather, it focuses on understanding the intricate details of your experiences. My mission is rooted in compassion, expertise, and a deep commitment to walking alongside you on your wellness journey.
I know that feeling misunderstood or isolated in your struggles is all too common, but in our sessions, you’ll find an empathetic professional who listens with genuine care and understanding. Together, we’ll create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express yourself freely and explore what’s on your mind. I also believe that a sprinkle of laughter can be a powerful healing tool, so I’ll bring moments of levity into our time together, helping to ease your journey toward a more stable and satisfying life—all without any extra costs. Together, we’ll unlock your true potential and work toward creating a brighter, more hopeful future.

Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Most people who find their way to my practice have already tried to figure things out on their own. They've read the books, talked to friends, maybe even seen a therapist before. And somewhere along the way they realized that what they actually need isn't more information — it's a space where they can finally be honest about what's really going on.That's what I try to offer.I'm an adoptee, a former marathon runner, a person who has changed careers and navigated loss and started over more than once. I don't bring my story into the room to make therapy about me. But I do bring it as evidence that I understand, in a real way, what it feels like to sit with hard questions about who you are and where you belong.My work is warm and direct. I won't validate you into stagnation or challenge you without compassion. I'll tell you the truth, sit with you in the uncomfortable, and help you build the kind of self-knowledge that actually changes how you move through the world.I work with adults, athletes, and families navigating adoption, relationships, life transitions, and the mental side of athletic performance. I see clients in person in Lafayette, Louisiana, and via telehealth throughout Louisiana, Ohio, and Minnesota.If you've been looking for a therapist who will actually engage with your whole story — not just the presenting problem — I'd love to talk.

Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
After facing the heart-wrenching challenges of having two of my three children struggle with Substance Use Disorder, my world was further shaken when my son, Joel, lost his decades-long battle with the disease in 2017. In the wake of this profound loss, I was determined to better understand the family experience of addiction, and have since used this lived experience to support and guide others who are navigating the isolating and stigmatizing road of addiction and loss.
As a Compassionate Bereavement Care®️ Certified Provider and Kessler Certified Grief Educator, I work with individuals, families, and communities impacted by loss. I am a Peer Parent Coach with the Partnership to End Addiction, and co-facilitate their online grief support community, and is the host of Finding Hope After Loss, Grief Support groups for The Happier Life Project. As an advocate for recovery policies, I am a California State Organizer with the Recovery Advocacy Project, serve on the RCO/RCC Advisory Committee, and was named the 2022 Architect of Recovery by CCAPP (CA Consortium of Addiction Professionals.) My book, Secrets, Scars and Heart Shaped Jars, shares my family’s journey through addiction, loss and recovery.

Progressable
Hypnotherapist, Rapid Transformational Therapy / Hypnotherapy
I offer therapy because I have lived the ache of being stuck in not knowing my purpose, emotional eating, divorce trauma and overwhelm. I now know I was not broken, not failing, just believing some lies about myself and my situations. I now know that people heal through remembering who they were designed to be - healthy, healed, whole, free, confident, loved and abundant. I use a number of tools and methods including hypnotherapy, core belief change and light script therapy. Clients tend to need between 1 and 3 sessions to recover from their presenting issue.

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.
