LaShandra Moore, LPC — Therapist in Louisiana

Hi there, I'm LaShandra!

I specialize in working with individuals to address anxiety, depression, and behavioral issues. I take a client-centered, collaborative approach, tailoring each session to your unique needs and goals.

My focus

I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, stress, sadness, low self-esteem, and life transitions. You might notice it's harder to focus, enjoy things you once loved, or keep up with daily life. Together, we'll explore what's going on and build a path forward that feels supportive and empowering.

My approach

I use cognitive-behavioral therapy to help you identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns. This approach is hands-on and gives you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Based on your needs, I may adapt my approach to include mindfulness, role play, journaling, and thought records.

My communication style

I believe clear, open communication creates a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with me as an empathetic partner. If we're working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into therapy began with personal tragedy and wanting to understand human thoughts and behaviors. I wanted to help others find solutions to life's problems and better manage their lives daily. I strongly believe everyone has the potential for growth and change.

My goals for you

Therapy is a partnership. Together, we'll identify and set goals that matter to you. As we work together, your goals may evolve as you gain new insights. We can adapt our plan at any time to ensure it's always meaningful and relevant.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We'll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy. It's completely normal to feel nervous. We'll take it one step at a time, and I'm here to guide you through each step of the process.
