Online Therapists in Louisiana

I am a National Certified Counselor and a Certified Thanatologist. Thanatology, derived from the Greek thanatos, “death”, is the study of death, dying and bereavement. A thanatologist is a professional, knowledgeable in the social and psychological matters surrounding death, loss, and end-of-life. I provide understanding, empathetic support for those who have experienced or are anticipating a loss, and need help working through their grief. You will find that this process allows you to find a new way to live that is fulfilling and meaningful, while honoring your loss.

Se habla Espanol! I am trauma informed therapists that works with women's issues and family therapy. Depression, anxiety, and compulsive behaviors are common symptoms that my clients have struggled with; through the exploration of their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors many clients experience personal growth and symptom relief. LGBTQ+ clients are welcome! It can be a difficult decision to begin therapy, but once you have made the decision; you have begun the process of change. Although therapy is an investment of time, energy and resources, the rewards can be great.

I am a solution focused therapist, who’s goal is to help individuals, families and couples uncover their true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can’t change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. 

Are you stressed? Are you finding it hard to navigate what life is bringing you? Are your relationships suffering? If you responded "yes" to any of these questions, I would love to help you! Stress, anxiety, depression, and a host of other troubles can be a challenging yet normal part of life. Handling these issues on your own can make them seem insurmountable. You do not have to go it alone when counseling is available. I offer culturally competent counseling in a non-judgmental, supportive environment. Using multiple therapy modalities, I help individuals, couples, and families with issues such as Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Grief & Loss, Relationship Issues, and Trauma. I also specialize in working with men and couples on a host of issues that impact wellness. Life can be a challenge! Relationships, competing priorities, various issues in society, and work-life stress can all become overwhelming. I want to help you gain more balance, harmony, positive health, and wellness. You are too valuable to suffer in silence. Together, let's work to create the joyous life you deserve.

Hi. I'm Shannon. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. My areas of interest include personality and identity development, LGBTQIA concerns (including gender dysphoria, gender exploration & gender transition), depression and other mood disorders, anxiety, grief and loss, men's mental health, post-trauma intervention, and treatment for problem sexual behavior. Before beginning my career in counseling, I worked in the field of victim services for 15 years, serving as a professional victim advocate in five different states and speaking on a local and national level about the effects of sexual violence. I remain passionate about the issues related to sexual trauma and victimization. I have provided individual and group treatment for those convicted of sexual offenses since 2015, and I have facilitated a process group for victims of sexual violence since 2019. I am honored to work alongside clients on their journeys towards self-discovery, healing and wellness. I am both compassionate and direct. I practice with an anti-discrimination, anti-oppression, and anti-racist orientation, and I care about how your personal experiences have influenced your view of yourself, of others, and of the world. I use an integrative and client-centered approach to counseling to assist clients in their personal growth and development. I provide off-site group therapy by contract and in partnership with local organizations. I am available for training and consultation to professionals, students, and service organizations on topics including trauma, interpersonal violence, mental health disorders, gender and sexuality, sex offender management and treatment, and self-care for caregivers. I have provided expert witness testimony on victim behavior, sexual assault reporting procedures, and the effects of trauma, and I am available for consultation to prosecutors. As an LPC Supervisor, I am approved by the LA LPC Board to supervise Provisionally Licensed Professional Counselors (PLPC's). PLPC's must document a minimum of 3,000 hours of post-master's experience in professional mental health counseling under the clinical supervision of a board-approved supervisor before they may be fully licensed, If you are interested in LPC Supervision, please click on the Clinical Supervision link under the Services tab.
