Kristen has been an absolute God sent from the very first session. I’ve only had a few with her so far and she’s already taught me so much! I look forward to my session every week and can’t wait to talk through things, set goals, discuss progress with goals, the worksheets and sources she shares with you that are so helpful and can help you manage what you’re struggling with. I’m just so glad I finally made the decision to try out BetterHelp. I’m so thankful I got matched with Kristen, too!

As a licensed therapist in Louisiana, I specialize in supporting young adults through life's complex transitions and emotional challenges. My professional approach centers on helping individuals navigate depression, anxiety, stress, and family dynamics with compassion and expertise.
I'm particularly passionate about working with young adults experiencing significant life changes, including pregnancy, postpartum experiences, and personal growth journeys. My therapeutic work emphasizes self-love, personal forgiveness, and building resilient coping strategies.
My goal is to create a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, develop stronger self-understanding, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. I believe in empowering individuals to recognize their inherent strengths and navigate challenges with confidence and self-compassion.
Through evidence-based practices, I support clients in developing practical tools to manage stress, improve self-esteem, and create positive life transformations. Every individual's journey is unique, and I'm committed to providing personalized, thoughtful guidance tailored to your specific needs and experiences.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
