CHRISTIAN COUNSELING 

healing doesn't mean the damage never existed  

it means the damage no longer controls our lives.

UNKNOWN

As your mental health advocate, I find joy in helping women, teens, and couples heal the soul wounds that prevent them from living healthy, healed, and whole lives.  I am equipped to deal with abuse issues, depression, anxiety, and the many complex counseling needs of individuals and couples living in today’s society.  

 

My counseling philosophy is guided by a Christian worldview, where I integrate biblical principles as agreed upon by the client. That simply means, I won't impose my Christian values/beliefs on you during our sessions without your permission.

​

I see clients by appointment only, under the supervision of Dr. Cortina Louis, with appointments lasting approximately 45 - 50 minutes in length.   Private insurance is not accepted at this time.  However, a receipt for services can be provided to help support any documentation needed from your health insurance company.

Authentic Perspectives and La Tanya D. Walker, are not paneled with any insurance company and is solely private pay.   All clients are required to keep a valid credit card on file when scheduling an appointment.  You will not be charged for services until 24 hours before your session.   If payment is not secured your appointment will be canceled and will need to be rescheduled for a later date.  We realize situations occur where you may need to cancel or change your appointment.  For this reason, we  ask that cancellations or changes be made with at least 24 hours notice.  Appointments that are cancelled with less than 24 hours noticed will be assessed a $25 cancellation fee on individual counseling and $50 cancellation on family and couples counseling.  If you are in need of counseling, but are unable to pay for services, you may qualify for sliding scale fee service.  Initial intake and other fees are provided on a sliding scale.  If you have difficulty paying, please contact our office for additional information.

Therapy Consultation

The purpose of a therapy consultation is to make sure I feel like a good fit for you. It also provides a safe way to talk with a mental health professional about concerns regarding yourself, your partner or your children without the need to enter into a therapeutic, on-going psychotherapy, assuming it's not indicated

Teletherapy

Online therapy, also referred to as teletherapy allows patients to receive therapy from the comfort of their own home, and can be an effective alternative to in-person therapy for those with mobility or transportation issues.  It can also provide access to mental health services for people who live in remote or underserved areas, as well as for those who may have difficulty taking time off work or finding childcare to attend in-person therapy sessions.
