With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I am deeply committed to helping individuals and families heal, grow, and reconnect with their strengths. My work is grounded in trauma-centered therapy, recognizing that many emotional and behavioral challenges are rooted in experiences that deserve compassion, understanding, and skilled support.

Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with children, adolescents, and families, helping them navigate life transitions, relationship challenges, and the impact of trauma. I believe therapy should be a safe space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to move forward with confidence.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right addiction counselor for you

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

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.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
