Harriette Wade, LPC

Harriette Wade is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as anger, relationships, parenting, anxiety, depression, and stress. Her practice also includes help for addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, career questions, and coping with life changes.

Harriette prefers practical work in sessions. She uses concrete strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns of thought and behavior that feed anger or anxiety. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape current reactions, and trauma-focused methods when past trauma is part of the picture.

Sessions focus on skills and on understanding. Clients learn tools for managing strong emotions, improving communication, and handling tense moments at home or work. She also supports people dealing with mood disorders, ADHD, and complicated grief by combining coping skills with longer-term exploration of triggers and patterns.

Her background includes work in mental rehabilitation centers and intensive outpatient programs over the past several years. Harriette collaborates with psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, primary care providers, and social service agencies when coordinated care is helpful.

She invites people who are motivated to change to try a structured plan of work. That plan typically mixes evidence-based techniques with conversations about values, goals, and practical steps for managing anger and related concerns.
