About

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Louisiana and the owner/creator of Adari Wellness. I founded Adari Wellness with a desire to provide Christian counseling services that help others achieve holistic wellness. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, spirituality issues, and marital/relational
difficulties. My personal passions are working with young adults to build self-esteem and a positive identity, helping couples build healthy marriages, as well as helping clients deepen their spiritual walk. I have experience working with couples and individuals of all ages. My goal for the therapeutic process is to help others experience the peace, joy,
and healing that comes from seeking the Lord and walking in His presence.

After years of student ministry, I pursued a passion for counseling founded on Biblical truths. I earned a Bachelors degree in Family and Child Studies from Louisiana State University in 2010 and a Masters degree in Marriage and Family Counseling from Southeastern Louisiana University in 2016. I have a wide range of counseling experience. I completed graduate internships at St. Christopher’s Addiction Wellness Center and Live Oak United Methodist Counseling Center. I have worked with individuals, couples, and groups recovering from infidelity and addiction at Doug White and Associates. In addition, I have provided counseling services for children, adolescents, and adults
at The Health and Counseling Center. I am a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC). In addition, I am a certified SYMBIS facilitator, offering premarital counseling.

Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I approach counseling from an integrative, therapeutic perspective, combining a Biblical foundation with a diverse theoretical approach and counseling techniques. I focus on clients with a holistic approach, challenging you to evaluate your lifestyle physically, mentally, emotionally, and
spiritually. I work with clients in a variety of formats, including individually, as couples, and as families. I see clients of all ages and backgrounds with the exception that I do not work individually with children under twelve years of age.
