More about Christa
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with the state of Louisiana. I have over 8 years of counseling experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of issues including addiction, depression, anxiety, grief, parenting issues, relationship and marriage issues.
I approach counseling from a cognitive-behavioral perspective, in that patterns of thoughts and actions are explored in order to better understand the client’s problems and develop solutions. I see the counseling relationship as a process in which my client and I build a relationship based on trust and respect, work together as a team to determine and explore presenting problems, develop goals and skills that will improve the client’s life, and work toward achieving those goals and experiencing solutions that benefit the client overall. I want to work with my clients to help them better understand themselves and the challenges they are facing, develop healthy coping skills, and to find hope in whatever challenges they may be facing.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
