About Destiny
She draws on client-centered care to meet people where they are and on cognitive behavioral tools to tackle thoughts and behaviors that get in the way. Dialectical behavior skills are used when strong emotions or relationship patterns cause repeated conflict. She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change.
Destiny has four years of clinical experience in Louisiana and supports people dealing with trauma, grief, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, and stress from life changes. She also helps with career questions, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and challenges linked to adoption or attachment. Her work includes addressing kink and alternative sex culture concerns when intimacy and sexual functioning intersect with other life areas.
In sessions she helps clients set clear goals, practice new ways of coping, and try small behavior changes between meetings. Conversations focus on strengths and on realistic steps that fit everyday life. Destiny aims to help people rebuild confidence and move toward more satisfying relationships and routines.
People looking to start are guided through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling process. Destiny approaches each person collaboratively and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
How her therapeutic approaches work for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building on your strengths. In online sessions this means the therapist follows your lead, helps you name goals, and supports the small changes you want to try.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT often uses practical exercises, worksheets, and brief between-session tasks to help reduce anxiety, manage depression, and address unhelpful behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication. It can be useful when patterns of conflict or emotional overwhelm interfere with relationships or daily routines.
Deciding which approach fits best is a shared process. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences, then suggest an approach or mix of approaches to try. Changes are reviewed together so the plan can be adjusted as you progress.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it easier to practice skills between meetings. Ask about scheduling and format details during the initial matching and booking steps.
