Khadijah Cooper, LPC

Khadijah Cooper is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with four years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, childhood trauma, substance abuse, anger management, depression, and the challenges that come with life transitions. As an Army veteran with 13 years of service, she brings personal insight into military-related mental health concerns and is prepared to support fellow veterans navigating emotional and psychological difficulties.

Khadijah views counseling as a collaborative process in which the client and therapist build understanding and trust, identify present concerns, set meaningful goals, and work systematically toward change. Her approach emphasizes teamwork and a clear plan for moving from current struggles to improved daily functioning and well-being.

Clinically, she draws from a psychoanalytic foundation, inviting careful exploration of how past traumas can influence present behavior and emotions. She also incorporates existential principles that encourage increased self-awareness and discovery of individual strengths and potential. Together these approaches guide a thoughtful, personalized path toward healing and growth.

Evidence-based approaches and online therapy

Khadijah Cooper integrates psychoanalytic and existential approaches in her work. The psychoanalytic perspective explores how earlier life experiences and unresolved traumas continue to shape current feelings and behaviors, which can be helpful for clients dealing with post-traumatic stress, attachment concerns, or long-standing patterns of anxiety and depression. The existential approach emphasizes increasing self-awareness, clarifying values, and discovering personal meaning, which often supports clients facing major life transitions, feelings of isolation, or questions about purpose.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Khadijah partners with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she tailors techniques so therapy feels like a good fit rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription. That partnership guides decisions about which methods to emphasize and how to adjust them over time.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for scheduling and access - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow clients to receive consistent care around work, family, and mobility constraints, and they make it easier to maintain momentum between sessions while working with licensed professionals and therapists committed to measurable progress.
