Welcome.
Erica Thibodeaux, MS, LPCC
I work with the elements of nature to reveal the source of the discomfort, disharmony, dis-ease, and disconnection that is often the cause of pain, suffering, and trauma within a person, family, or ancestral lineage.
Inside the rich and wild realm of nature, we rediscover who we really are. In nature where the influences of others are stripped away, we can sense ourselves again. We can listen to the wisdom of our own knowing. What is revealed leads us toward healing.
In addition to my clinical counseling experience, I’ve spent 29 years learning from community and nature-based Elders.
I specialize in intersectional mental health, ecology, and nature-based technologies.
