More about Christina

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

As a licensed therapist in Louisiana, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on compassionate, evidence-based care for young adults and women experiencing challenges like anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship dynamics. I'm deeply committed to helping clients develop self-love, improve communication skills, and work through feelings of isolation or shame.

My therapeutic practice focuses on creating a supportive, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their experiences, heal from past wounds, and develop resilient coping strategies. I have extensive expertise in addressing mood disorders, social anxiety, attachment issues, and personal growth challenges. Whether you're struggling with life transitions, relationship conflicts, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you with empathy and professional guidance.

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.
