Eclectic therapists in New Orleans, Louisiana LA

“You can have the other words-chance, luck, coincidence, serendipity. I'll take grace. I don't know what it is exactly, but I'll take it. ” ― Mary Oliver, poet. —————— As we react, adapt and adjust to the multitude of changes taking place in our lives in the face of ambiguity in our world, you might find yourself experiencing heightened emotions, and yearning for clarity. Perhaps you are searching for a sense of peace, a new way of ‘being’ in the world that cultivates emotional balance within yourself and in your relationships. Your inner turmoil might feel overwhelming. Know that this is not yours forever, unless you choose to keep it. The peace and clarity you seek is within your reach.  

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New Orleans and Covington, Louisiana with over thirty years of experience specializing in anxiety, phobias, depression, eating disorders, and grief. In 2007, I was trained as an EMDR therapist which revolutionized my practice. I now specialize in EMDR Therapy and offer EMDR Training and EMDR Certification Consultation to practitioners seeking to enhance their clinical skills.  

I help guide, inform, and inspire individuals to feel more confident about their life and choices. I do this by using a knowledge based approach which utilizes research based tools, techniques, nutrition, and my experience to heal physically, mentally, and emotionally. I have worked in the Mental Health Industry since 1999. I started off working for the Public School System as a Nationally Certified School Psychologist, eventually becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor and Counselor Supervisor and later training as a Life Optimization Coach opening my own business Abundant Life Consulting. Through this time I've developed a variety of skills enabling me to help those I work with lead more productive, healthier, and happier lives.
