Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Despite being a good listener, I don't see myself as a "talk" therapist. I am interested in how you, your nervous system, and the environment are getting along with each other. We will DO things in our work just as much as talk and reflect. I provide ways to reduce overwhelming emotions that impact effectiveness, break unhelpful reactions/patterns, and enhance internal resources for navigating the world as it is. My personal style is a combination of a little irreverent spice and humor while deeply honoring your concerns and goals.

Nicole Hammond Crowden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD,LCSW-BACS
I have been a social worker for over 18 years and have had the opportunity to work in a variety of areas. However, the last 8 years have been dedicated solely to mental and behavioral health as well as issues related to gender and sexuality. Whether its a person , couple, partnership or family, the issues are identified and together we work towards practical goals that will provide each individual with what they need in order to function. I have developed a style that combines a variety of techniques and treatment modalities. I understand that no two people are the same even if the circumstances appear similar. Therefore, my services are specific to you and are customized to fit your needs. Contrary to what you may believe or heard, you don't need a label or diagnoses to talk with a therapist or a counselor. You may need professional guidance to manage stress, need to modify your parenting style, adjust to life transitions or develop self awareness. I am attentive and available to listen. Just give me a call.

Sara Pesic
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, CCTP
In years of practicing counseling and doing my own training and research, I have learned that besides knowing "Why" it is also important to know "How." I find many people knowing where their trauma or problem is coming from, but they are still not able to move forward and resolve the issue. My focus is on understanding the client's challenges and then helping them move forward with practical and manageable steps.

15 Years Experience

New Orleans carries deep collective trauma from Hurricane Katrina and subsequent flooding events, and therapists specializing in disaster recovery, PTSD, and community resilience remain in strong demand. The city's culture of celebration and togetherness can mask significant individual struggles with addiction, grief, and depression, and therapists here often work at the intersection of joy, loss, and survival. New Orleans' distinct cultural identity — rooted in African American, Creole, and Caribbean traditions — means culturally grounded and community-engaged therapy is particularly valued. Tulane Medical Center and University Medical Center New Orleans provide institutional mental health resources alongside a network of independent practitioners serving Uptown, Mid-City, and the Marigny.
