Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Lafayette, LA

When life gets hard, it may be easy to feel like an empty shell of yourself, often waiting for hope amid the weight of anxiety, depression, stress, & trauma making it an even heavier burden to manage the demands of daily life. Guided by the principles of community, commitment, and autonomy, my mission is to equip individuals with the tools needed to navigate their distinct life journeys, overcome challenges, and pursue their aspirations. I am dedicated to establishing a secure, nonjudgmental, & accepting environment where you are encouraged to embark on a journey of authentic self-discovery, skill enhancement, and individual growth.

Hi, I’m Raina Deer. I’m a therapist who helps individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges with compassion and clarity. I specialize in working with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a welcoming space where you feel supported and can grow at your own pace.

I believe healing happens in a space where your full story is welcomed and respected. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, depression, and life transitions through a supportive, culturally aware, and collaborative approach.

Many of the clients I support feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in patterns that no longer serve them, or exhausted from trying to manage everything on their own. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves, strengthen emotional resilience, and develop practical tools that support healthier daily functioning and long-term healing.

Reaching out for support can be a big step, and you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I believe therapy works best when we approach it as a collaboration. Your story is unique, and you are the expert in your own life.

I work with adolescents and adults who may be feeling overwhelmed by things like trauma, anxiety, stress, ADHD, or difficult life experiences. Together, we create a space where you can talk openly, feel heard, and begin exploring what healing and growth look like for you.

Clients often describe me as inquisitive, warm, and even a bit humorous, someone who helps them look at challenges from new perspectives while staying focused on solutions.
