Welcome, I am an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana. I have several years working with clients of diverse backgrounds and cultures. It is my daily commitment to provide professional punctuality, expertise and an array of resources to ensure a stable, safe and healthy environment for my clients. This will ensure that each client continues to gain growth, daily wellness and mental health assistance. Although I am open to working with clients of all ages, my current focus is on individuals from early adulthood to geriatrics.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, coping with grief and loss, life changes, , and family issues. I pride myself on making sure each client is in a non judgement atmosphere, and an empowering environment which allows them the support they need to effectively express themselves and communicate in a manner best suited for their needs.

Together, we will create an effective working treatment plan that would assess a way to evaluate growth, discuss results, and provide feedback that would assist with upward success. I am here to support you as you take that step. Contact me and together we can start your journey to a better, healthier tomorrow.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Mrs. Kimberly is an amazing listener and always making connections with the things you mention even from other sessions. She is great at asking questions to initiate new thinking and help you help yourself.
