Harriette Wade, LPC

Harriette Wade is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with 12 years of experience supporting adults, couples, and families through life’s more challenging moments. She offers a calm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where people can explore relationship and parenting concerns, anxiety and depression, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, and a range of other emotional and behavioral issues.

Harriette works collaboratively with each person to develop individualized, evidence-informed treatment plans that reflect their values and goals. She draws on structured strategies to build coping skills and emotional resilience while also attending to deeper patterns that affect relationships and self-understanding. Clients who are motivated to make changes and seek greater balance, purpose, or fulfillment will find a focused partner in her work.

Her practice emphasizes practical skill-building alongside exploration of underlying dynamics, and she maintains active collaboration with psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, primary care providers, and social service agencies when coordination of care is beneficial. Harriette welcomes adults, couples, and families who want a thoughtful, strengths-based approach to moving forward.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Harriette integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy into her online practice in ways that are accessible and goal-oriented. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and offers practical tools to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship difficulties. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding the impact of traumatic events and developing skills to reduce symptoms, improve emotional regulation, and support healing from abuse or post-traumatic stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Harriette partners with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailors methods that fit the person, couple, or family. That collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in treatment choices and increases the likelihood that techniques will be relevant and effective for daily life.

Online sessions with Harriette are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, busy days, or when in-person visits are not convenient, while still allowing licensed professionals to provide focused, structured therapeutic work.
