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.

Kaya Marklund - New Morning Therapy
Hypnotherapist, Holistic Therapist, Hypnotherapist, Emotional Processing
I’m Kaya, and I am a global online hypnotherapist, naturopath, life coach and healer with many years of experience. My goal is to constantly contribute to a healthy and empowered humanity with my work, which consists of wellbeing therapies such as hypnotherapy, naturopathy, life coaching and healing, worldwide. With a holistic approach and a empathic person-centred care I can offer you help for emotional struggles, such as anxiety, emotional traumas, phobias, relationships, mental distress, addictions, and to improve lifestyle and well-being. I have many successful cases over the years, and feel confident in my work and approach, where I always will put YOUR needs first. I stepped on the path of healing at a very young age. Early in my teenage time I decided that I wanted to find a way to help to people with mental and emotional problems on a fundamental level. All what I am really doing is helping people to let go of any traumatic event, forgive to life, and to love and accept themselves.

Nenette Keenan
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
“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.
