Hi, I'm Mary Claire. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing virtually in both Florida and Louisiana. For the the past 25 years I've supported individuals in reclaiming their joy.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.
I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.
Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.
Hello I am Ashaunti Edwards. I have been counseling for 10 years. I have worked with military families as I am a veteran, couples, individuals. I received my Bachelors degree in Addictions Counseling from Southern University of New Orleans. I received my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University.
I enjoy helping my clients find their voice and allowing them to feel heard. I look forward to working with you to narrative your own healthy story for your life.
Hello, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about my practice.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) with more than 10 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges and achieve meaningful personal growth. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am currently pursuing my doctoral degree, further expanding my knowledge and commitment to providing effective, evidence-based care.
While I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan and provide counseling services for individuals ages 6 and older, I have a particular passion for supporting high school and college students. These years often bring significant transitions, academic pressures, identity development, relationship challenges, and questions about the future. I enjoy helping young people build resilience, increase self-confidence, and develop the skills needed to thrive both personally and academically.
Whether you are seeking support for stress, anxiety, life transitions, personal growth, relationship concerns, or other emotional challenges, my goal is to provide a collaborative therapeutic experience tailored to your individual needs.
I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing, growth, and well-being.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Shreveport, LA
Searching for addiction therapists in Shreveport starts with finding care that matches the specific support you want. Addiction care can include support for substance use, alcohol use, behavioral concerns, relapse prevention, and related concerns like anxiety, trauma, or relationship stress. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with approaches such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with a prescriber when that is part of your care team.
In a mid-sized city like Shreveport, your options may include local offices, virtual appointments, or a mix of both. Virtual care can expand access if local appointment times are limited or if you prefer to meet from a familiar setting. When narrowing your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers scheduling that fits your routine, and has experience with non-judgmental, harm reduction-informed care. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they describe their approach and whether their style fits what you are looking for.
Addiction counseling in Shreveport can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare therapists who match your needs, confirm your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse Shreveport therapists, review bios, and book directly when you are ready.
