When I think of myself as a Counselor, I envision providing unconditional positive regard and "Good Old Fashion" Southern Louisiana Hospitality to clients. Based on the client's individualized needs, I practice the eclectic approach to guide them through the healing process.

I am Tamiko Brown, a Provisional Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in Anxiety, Depression, and Spiritual Counseling. As a native of Bunkie, LA, I mostly enjoy serving others. I received a BS in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry and Biology and a Masters of Arts in Mental Health Counseling from Xavier University of Louisiana.

Ralph Waldo Emmerson quoted, "What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." It would be my honor to serve you on your quest to discover that within you and help guide you on your journey through the healing process.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Lafayette, LA

Searching for therapists in Lafayette starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Lafayette therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience match your needs. Bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

In a smaller city like Lafayette, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger metro areas, so virtual therapy can expand your choices across Louisiana. Some people prefer a nearby office in Lafayette, Broussard, Duson, or Scott, while others choose virtual sessions that fit more easily into their schedule. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions and communicates with people they support.

Therapy in Lafayette can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. Headway connects you with licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, with many accepting a wide range of insurance plans. You can filter by location, insurance, specialty, availability, and virtual or in-person care, then review bios and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
