Therapy for Anxiety
in Houma, LA
At Burns Psychological Services in Houma, LA, we understand the pervasive impact of anxiety on daily life. Our dedicated team provides compassionate, evidence-based therapy to help individuals manage and overcome excessive worry, fear, and apprehension. We are committed to fostering a supportive environment where you can develop effective coping strategies and achieve greater emotional well-being.
Understanding Anxiety
Anxiety is a natural human emotion, but when it becomes persistent, excessive, and interferes with daily activities, it may indicate an anxiety disorder. Symptoms can include constant worrying, feeling on edge, panic attacks, social avoidance, and physical manifestations like rapid heart rate or shortness of breath. Therapy aims to address these underlying patterns and help you regain control.
Your Therapy Journey
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with an initial session where we discuss your specific concerns, symptoms, and life history. This helps us understand your unique situation and determine if our services are a good fit for your needs. We prioritize creating a safe and non-judgmental space from the very first meeting.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Following your assessment, we collaborate to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals. Our approach often integrates evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness techniques. This ensures a comprehensive strategy for managing your anxiety.
Therapeutic Sessions
During regular sessions, you will learn practical skills to challenge anxious thoughts, regulate emotions, and reduce avoidance behaviors. We empower you to explore triggers, develop new perspectives, and practice coping mechanisms in a supportive setting. The pace and content of therapy are always guided by your comfort and progress.
Ongoing Support
Our commitment extends beyond scheduled appointments, with flexible options like telehealth and daily check-ins available. We aim to provide consistent support as you integrate new strategies into your daily life. This continuous engagement helps reinforce learning and sustain your progress towards lasting relief.

Testimonials
I was referred to Dr Shay Burns to get tested for autism and ADHD as an adult. I was really impressed! After only a few hours of interviews and testing, she wrote a report about me that showed she understood me at a deep level. Plus she’s very friendly, helpful, and fun to talk to.
