FAQs for Virtual & In-Person Therapy in Louisiana
Are you accepting new clients?
Yes! I currently have availability for new clients for virtual sessions across Louisiana and in-person sessions in New Orleans. I work with individuals, couples, partners, and polycules.
How does the consultation work?
It’s super simple. Pick a time that works for you, and we’ll hop on a 15-minute phone call. No pressure, no sales pitch, just a chance to see if I’m the right therapist for you. You can ask me anything. I’ll ask a few questions to understand what you're looking for. And if it feels like a good fit, we’ll go from there.
What happens after the consult?
If we’re a match, we’ll schedule your first full session and dive in. That first session is where we start mapping out what’s not working and where you want to go. We’re not just talking about the past. We’re building something new.
What's your therapy style?
Trauma-integrated. Nervous-system aware. Deeply affirming for queer, poly, kinky, and neurodivergent folks.
I use approaches like EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy), IFS (Internal Family Systems), somatic work, and attachment theory to help you understand your patterns and change them from the inside out.
I’m warm, real, and not afraid to challenge you (with care). You won’t get blank stares or endless “And how does that make you feel?”
What's your rate? What about insurance? How long are sessions?
My rate is $150 per session for individuals and $175 for couples and partners. I don’t accept insurance, but I’m happy to provide superbills if you’d like to seek reimbursement through out-of-network benefits.
Sessions are typically 45–50 minutes. Intake sessions run about 60 minutes to give us plenty of time to get to know each other.
How often do we meet?
I meet with all new clients weekly for the first 6-8 weeks. That consistency helps build momentum and sets you up for deeper, lasting change. After that, we’ll reassess and adjust based on what’s working and what you need next.
Where do sessions take place?
You’ve got options.
🛋️ In-person sessions are held at my cozy office in Uptown New Orleans.

Your site is long! Can I get a quick summary of what you offer?
Totally fair. I’m wordy on purpose because the people I work with want depth, not fluff. But if you’re just looking for the tl;dr of services, populations I support, and issues I treat, here’s a no-frills summary page. It’s not as cinematic, but it’ll get you the basics fast.
What if I have more questions?
Great! Bring them to our phone consult, or or email me directly at hello@themindnerd.com if you prefer to get clarity before scheduling.

If what you’ve read here resonates, I’d love to see if we’re a good fit.
I work with people who are ready to stop spinning in their patterns and start actually changing them, whether you’re navigating trauma, ADHD, intimacy struggles, or messy relationship dynamics.
This isn’t quick-fix therapy. It’s deeper work and I’ll be with you every step of the way.
