Lori has changed my life. I started seeing her at a low point in my life when I didn’t know how to deal with my emotions. Lori has been a constant pillar of support and trust for me over the past 3 years. I could not recommend her enough, she is the best therapist I have ever experienced. She brings insightful perspective and lovingly challenges my negative habits. I have grown in my self confidence, self acceptance, and self love due to our weekly sessions.

Mrs Arceneaux is very kind, genuine, thoughtful and very intelligent therapist. I could have put way more positive words about her in this review, so I put the ones that I feel the most about her work she has done with me. She has helped me tremendously and I look fwd to our meetings every week, although my punctuality hasn't been the best. She's been very patient and accomadating. Thank you very much.
More about Lori
- 20 years' experience

- LCSW
Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Louisiana with over 18 years of experience. I have a particular interest and expertise in working with those touched by foster care and/or adoption. For the majority of my career, I have worked with children and teenagers. I enjoy working with these age groups and assisting them with navigating the often complex emotions that accompany adolescence. Also, I have worked extensively with families and couples. Many of these clients were in need of assistance with strengthening and improving their relationships, improving their communication, and managing the various stressors in their lives.
I strive to provide a warm, caring and supportive environment where my clients can work through obstacles, struggles and past traumas to reach a successful solution. I partner with each individual to help them achieve the life they desire. I work with each individual to identify and build upon their unique strengths and to find more positive and productive ways of communicating and problem solving.
Sometimes making the first step can be the most difficult one once an individual has decided to seek counseling. I am committed to providing a welcoming and compassionate setting so my client and I can develop a healthy and effective therapeutic relationship. I'm here to help.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I love working with Lori. I appreciate how she listens to my problems and gives me a better insight into how I can resolve them. I have had a few therapists in the past and I feel like Lori works with me to find the best way for me to have a positive experience when we meet.

Lori is excellent. She keeps up with your messages, as well as understands your concerns and helps you to see them.
I love Lori! She has been approachable, easy to talk to, and extremely caring. I couldn't have asked for a better experience with her. It's been great
Lori is an amazing therapist and truly cares for her clients. She is very professional and has helped me tremendously. In Lori I know I have found the therapist I have been hoping to find for many years.
Lori has helped me through so much and is always there for me. Could not be happier with having Lori as my therapist
Lori is incredible, she is so thoughtful and available and checks on me every few days with considered and thoughtful words and advice, it feels like she’s really invested in helping me and it’s so great knowing someone is there to help me
Lori is truly amazing as a person and a therapist. She’s logical and has such a kind approach. She helped me through a really tough period of depression and anxiety following a breakup and I’ve come out stronger and more confident.
Lori is kind, non judgmental and logical. She listens and absorbs and challenges my way of thinking. She is absolutely in my corner and I can’t recommend her highly enough!
I really appreciate Lori’s sincere concern. It’s been helpful to have someone give me kind and objective input which is exactly what I needed. Thank you Lori!
I've only had a couple sessions with Lori so far, but I am enjoying each session. She listens carefully and has great suggestions when helping with some of my current struggles. She's calm and kind, I'd recommend her to others for sure!
Lori is just wonderful. She speaks to your soul with her very gentle voice and calm delivery of her expert opinion. In our first session, she really took time to draw out from me by asking appropriate questions and then, based her opinion in identifying what I’m going through. She would also constantly check on me and send me worksheets and reminders that would help.
She is very understanding and gives me advise on how to handle a situation. She has made me believe in myself again.
Lori is a very caring and understanding person. I have always felt welcomed and safe sharing with her and I appreciate her insights. I highly recommend her as a therapist especially if you’re on the fence on whether to seek help or not! She is wonderful and will help you with everything.
I have had two sessions with Lori so far and she has been very helpful in giving me insight and validating some of my feelings and concerns that I was unsure of. I am grateful for her help!
Lori has been very helpful. She is very kind and positive and has made me feel comfortable since the beginning.
Lori is such a personable and kind hearted person. She genuinely wants to help and really puts herself in your shoes before giving advice or any suggestions. I love that she is very flexible with timings as well and gives you the time to open up. I instantly felt very comfortable with Lori and her expertise and would highly recommend her!
I really appreciated that our first conversation ended with actual tasks for me to focus on over the week. My therapy sessions in the past often just left me feeling drained and overwhelmed from sharing all of my concerns without having something to work on or a way to focus my energy.
