Family Solutions Practice Management Monroe La

I received a PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy from Amridge University.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Private Practice, I serve individuals, couples, and families of all ages and backgrounds. Common concerns include depression, anxiety, anger management, marital issues, adolescent issues, family issues, etc. I have an "appreciative" approach to counseling, which focuses on strengths to create positive change. Principles utilized include thankfulness, forgiveness, hope, joy, and perseverance.

I have presented at national conferences on Family and Women's Issues and Eating Disorders and worked in both in-patient and out-patient settings.

I have worked with hundreds of clients of all ages over the past thirty years, suffering with depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, eating disorders (obesity and the use of bariatric surgery), relationship issues, and major life disappointments. Choosing an ideal therapist is knowing that person is passionate about your well being and will exhaust every avenue to that end. Together we understand you deeply and to validate your best and minimize unnecessary judgments, resulting in an expanded and more satisfying life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Marriage and Family Therapist and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner.

I have been practicing as a psychotherapist for 30 years and I very much enjoy my work. My goal is to help people with healing, and in so doing help them to live a more joyful and meaningful life. I have years of experience helping clients address and recover from many different issues. I work with emotional wounds that are often at the core of issues that clients bring to me. I have found that when these wounds can be addressed in a safe environment, healing can take place. I work with adults of all life stages, with adolescents, children, with individuals, families and groups.

I work with clients in a variety of formats, including individual, group, and family sessions.

Are you concerned with your child's communication skills? Are you fearful of the transitions your child is going through? Those concerns and fears are common. It takes strength and patience to be a parent of a child with behavioral issues. I create a safe environment to address the behavioral challenges life presents as your child evolves through the developmental stages of life. When working with you and your child, I will develop a unique treatment plan with emphasis placed on your child's strengths.

Hi! I'm Mary Logan and my goal is for you to feel comfortable and welcome just as you are. We are able to build trust, connection, and motivation for change when we feel accepted rather than judged, and that is what I seek to achieve with you in our sessions together. I believe that each human has their own unique strengths, and I work to empower clients to find and utilize these inner resources while also connecting them to evidenced-based tools for growth. I am accepting new clients and offer play therapy, family and filial therapy, couples therapy, as well as individual therapy for adolescents and adults.

For over 40 + years I have been an advocate for children and families in need of mental health services. It has been gratifying to provide a milieu of services that has effectively met the needs of my clients. The knowledge I have acquired has been recognized by the Office of Juvenile Justice, Department of Children and Family Services, and Family Roads as a sound clinical practice. I have successfully implemented Parenting and Fathering Models which have had a micro and macro impact on service delivery in Louisiana.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice for 25 years. I work with adolescents and adults doing individual as well as family and couple therapy. I use different modalities of treatment but mainly focus on cognitive behavioral therapy which teaches people how to identify the connection between their thoughts, feelings and behaviors as a way of making changes in their lives. I believe people who are motivated to change are capable of doing so given the right tools.

It takes courage to ask for help, especially from someone you don't know. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and clinical pastoral counselor, I work with individuals, couples and families to resolve common human problems. I believe you will benefit from the clinical competence, experience and maturity gained from more than thirty years in practice, and will quickly realize I sincerely care about you. When you reach out to me, I will do my best to respond promptly, without your waiting too long for an appointment. Don't be surprised if I personally answer the phone.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I welcome work with couples and families, as well as inividuals.

As a therapist, I am committed to a standard of excellence in my therapeutic professional and ethical responsibilities. My mission is to promote the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and intellectual wellness of my clients - individual, couples and families. I maintain integrity and respect in my work with clients while being a compassionate and active listener, and a messenger of hope. I bring to my practice a background in the health sciences, a wealth of life experience, and ongoing continuing education that fine tunes my therapeutic skills. My clients arrive at positive solutions that bring them the clarity and peace that they seek.

I work with depression, anxiety, fears, stress, bi-polar, domestic violence, marriage and family problems, parenting issues and grief.

I am interested in helping you through life's struggles with the counseling you need. Whether you are dealing with stress laden situations at home or work, anxiety, depression, grief, marriage problems, family issues, parenting, addictions, bi-polar disorder, or worries about this stressful economy, I am here to provide the help you need. I am a Christian therapist so I believe in incorporating a person's personal faith in the counseling process. Growing closer to God is important no matter what your situation or problem might be.

My husband is a US Veteran so I know what it means to be a military family and walk through deployments, training's, and any other official business that comes with serving our country.

It is my heart to help you the client, while ensuring a positive journey. Learning to cope with life stressors can be a positive or negative experience. I would be honored to assist you with developing healthy ways to aide you or your family in reaching your goals towards a fulfilling life. I am a trained Christian Counselor. If you prefer to receive Christian Counseling, I am happy to assist you in leading a healthy spirit filled life. If you prefer regular counseling, I am also more than happy to assist you with leading a positive productive life.

I work with clients with a variety of challenges, some of which are PTSD, sexual abuse or childhood abuse, family counseling, marriage and relationship, children's challenges, depression, low self-esteem, mood and anxiety struggles, stress, loss and grief, gender identity, anger management, and adjustment and transition issues.

Sometimes the small things make the biggest difference and the largest challenges are not so big in perspective. I believe that participating in counseling can provide that perspective and be a most remarkable and rewarding journey. The counseling process is not always easy and can be quite difficult. Realizing this, I always feel so honored when my clients are willing to include me on their journey. I enjoy working with families and children as they determine who they want to become and are willing to do whatever necessary to make it happen.

I specialize in improving marriage, family, and relational issues.

Sometimes, life feels overwhelming, and you feel "stuck" unable to determine what is the next step to take to resolve problems. Many issues can cause you to feel this way including anxiety, depression, family dynamics, chronic illness or pain, caregiver stress, and what I tend to call "life stuff." Are you ready to feel less overwhelmed and stuck? Could you use some help determining how to better manage caregiver stress, family issues, chronic illness, and general life issues so that you feel less depressed and anxious? I would love to help you with this so that you can feel better and start enjoying life again!

Family Therapy
If you're looking for family therapy in Louisiana or for a Louisiana family therapist these professionals provide family therapy services and structural family therapy services. They include family therapists and marriage family therapists. Therapists in Louisiana using the techniques of 'family therapy' (also referred to as marriage and family therapy and family counseling) view change in terms of the systems of interaction between family members.

Family relationships often affect psychological well-being and, regardless of the origin of an issue, or whether it may be the "individual" or "family" who is presenting it, involving the family in the solution can be of great benefit. Families participate directly in sessions during which the family therapist helps conversations in a way that draws upon and builds the strengths, wisdom and support of the wider family unit.
