Regina Barber, LPC

Licensed professional Counselor

You don’t have to navigate this alone.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or weighed down by anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, or relationship challenges—know this: you’re not the only one. Life can feel heavy at times, and asking for support is a brave and meaningful step.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who’s passionate about walking alongside people as they work through the things that are holding them back. My approach is grounded in creating a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can freely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

Together, we’ll take a closer look at what’s going on beneath the surface—whether it’s old wounds that haven’t fully healed, stress that’s built up over time, or patterns of thinking that are keeping you stuck. Using a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and personalized strategies, I’ll help you gain clarity, identify triggers, and develop practical tools to manage emotions and create meaningful change.

I’m also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)—an evidence-based therapy that’s especially helpful if you’ve experienced trauma, PTSD, or deeply distressing experiences that still affect your daily life. EMDR can help you reprocess those experiences so they no longer feel so overwhelming or defining.

I believe healing happens at your own pace. Whether you’re looking for short-term support to get through a tough season, or you’re ready to dig deeper and grow long-term, I’m here to help you build resilience, gain insight, and move toward a more grounded, fulfilling life.

If you’re wondering whether now is the right time, consider these questions:

  •       *Do you often feel anxious, emotionally drained, or on edge?

  •       *Have you noticed patterns that are hurting your relationships or holding you back?

  •       *Are you struggling to process past experiences or manage day-to-day stress?

  •       *Are you facing a major transition like grief, a breakup, or a career change?

  •       *Do you feel unsure of your purpose or disconnected from yourself?

If any of these resonate with you, you’re in the right place—and you don’t have to figure it all out alone.  I’d be honored to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.

about me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a deep passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and improve their emotional well-being. My journey into the mental health field is both personal and purposeful, shaped by early life experiences that instilled in me the values of compassion, service, and resilience.

I grew up in a close-knit community in Winnsboro, Louisiana, where helping others was a way of life. My early exposure to caregiving came from watching my grandmother, a respected figure in our community, selflessly support those in need. Her commitment to caring for others left a lasting impression on me and sparked a desire to do the same in my own way.

When she later faced her own mental health challenges, it opened my eyes to the emotional struggles many people experience—often in silence. That moment became a turning point for me. I wanted to understand more about mental health and be someone who could offer support, clarity, and hope to others walking through difficult seasons.

That early calling led me to pursue a career in counseling. Today, I am honored to walk alongside individuals as they work through challenges, heal from past experiences, and build more fulfilling lives. I provide a safe and supportive space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to grow.
