Therapist

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience working with adults. I approach therapy as a relational process, not a place where you come to be fixed. You’re not a problem to solve; you’re a person with a history, patterns that make sense, and a way of being in the world that developed for a reason.

DeAndra LeMalle

Therapist

Virtual • Louisiana


Hi there!

My name is De’Andra LeMalle, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) that takes on a creative and expressive approach to therapy. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. In addition to my clinical training, I am certified in Expressive Arts Therapy, Mandala Assessment Research Instrument (MARI), and Vibroacoustic Therapy (VAT).

These modalities allow me to incorporate creative and body-centered techniques that help clients explore emotions, experiences, and patterns that may be difficult to express through words alone. My practice focuses on helping individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and identity exploration better understand themselves and process their experiences.

I work with clients who may feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next steps. Together, we develop meaningful strategies for healing, emotional regulation, and personal growth in a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment.

Are you looking for a therapist who is encouraging, warm, empathetic, and affirming? If so, you may be in the right place. Hi, I’m Kayla Bellard, and I’m here to support you in your journey toward healing and growth.

As a fellow Louisianian, I value connection, authenticity, and meeting people where they are. I enjoy southern cuisine, Mardi Gras parades, and spending time outdoors - and I bring that same warmth and down-to-earth approach into my work with clients. I understand that starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life transitions. My goal is to create a comfortable, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and safe to explore your experiences.

My therapeutic approach is person-centered and focused on your goals, needs, and personal growth. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, and self-discovery. Together, we focus on collaboration, respect, and building insight so you can move forward with confidence and clarity.
