Online Therapy in Louisiana
Helping you overcome the challenges you face from the comfort of your own home.
Be Inspired Counseling & Consulting offers secure, HIPAA-compliant online therapy for individuals, children, teens, couples, and families throughout Louisiana. Online counseling provides the same compassionate, professional support as in-person sessions—delivered in a way that fits your life and schedule.
What Is Online Therapy?
Online therapy, also known as telehealth counseling, allows you to meet with your therapist through a secure video platform.
Sessions are conducted in real time and follow the same structure and ethical standards as in-person counseling, offering a private and effective way to receive support from wherever you are. Online therapy is available to clients located anywhere in Louisiana.
Who Online Therapy Can Help
Online counseling can be a good fit for:
➝ Adults managing anxiety, stress, depression, or life transitions who want support but feel unsure about where to start.
➝ Teens and young adults balancing school, extracurricular activities, or busy schedules who need flexible appointment options.
➝ Parents seeking support for themselves or their child while juggling family, work, and daily responsibilities.
➝ Couples looking for counseling with flexible scheduling that fits into their lives.
➝ Individuals who feel overwhelmed and want to feel happier, more grounded, and more at peace, but struggle to find time for in-person sessions.
➝ Those who live in areas like New Orleans or Baton Rouge and want to avoid long commutes and traffic, or in more rural communities such as Leesville or Marksville, where mental health options may be limited.
Anyone who prefers the comfort and privacy of attending counseling from their own home. Online therapy may not be the best fit for individuals in crisis or needing immediate, in-person support. Our Care Team can help guide you to appropriate resources if needed.
What to Expect From Online Counseling
Online therapy sessions look and feel much like in-person sessions. You’ll meet with your therapist at your scheduled appointment time using a secure link sent ahead of your session. We recommend using the SimplePractice Client App to easily access sessions, complete forms, and manage appointments.
During sessions, your therapist will create a supportive, confidential space to explore your concerns, identify goals, and develop tools to support meaningful change. Still unsure about counseling online? Find out more about what to expect here.

It's comfortable
Online therapy can be more comfortable than in-person therapy. Talking about things online rather than in person can be a more comfortable setting for many. Especially if you feel fearful of coming into an office setting.
Many people say they feel they can be more open about the struggles they are facing online. During the pandemic, individuals have reported it makes them feel safer.
If you feel anxious about new places or prefer to meet from the comfort of home, online therapy can be a good first step.
It's convenient
Online therapy in Louisiana is also very convenient. You can show up to your appointment with a click of a button. All you need is an internet connection and a computer or smartphone with a camera and microphone. It can save you from the long drive to us at our Alexandria, Pineville, or Natchitoches offices for an appointment. The ease, flexibility, and convenience can be helpful if your schedule keeps you from in-person settings.
It's accessible
Online therapy is also very accessible. Before the days of online therapy, you had limits on who you could seek help from depending on where you resided. Now, you can access counselors throughout Louisiana. If you live in a rural area with limited access to mental health care, it allows access to the help you need.
