About Khadijah

Khadijah Cooper is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, anger, depression, trauma and life transitions. She also draws on her military background to support veterans with mental health concerns.

She describes counseling as a team process. The client and therapist build understanding and trust, define current problems, set goals, and take step-by-step actions toward those goals. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage strong emotions and daily pressures.

Khadijah uses a psychoanalytic foundation to revisit past traumas that continue to affect present life. She also uses an existential stance to help people increase self-awareness and consider what matters most to them. Together these approaches guide conversations about patterns, meaning, and choices.

In a typical session she listens for recurring themes in relationships and behavior. She helps people name patterns such as control issues, attachment concerns, guilt and shame, or isolation. She can work through anger that shows up at home or work, and the resentment that builds over time.

Her background includes 13 years of military service before moving into counseling work. That experience informs how she talks about structure, stress, and transitions. People seeking help for post-traumatic stress, multicultural concerns, or veteran-related issues may find this perspective relevant.

How her approaches fit online

She blends a psychoanalytic foundation with an existential perspective. The psychoanalytic foundation focuses on identifying how past experiences still affect current feelings and reactions, which helps when anger or shame trace back to earlier events. The existential perspective encourages people to name their values, become more self-aware, and consider different choices when old patterns cause distress.

Figuring out which approach helps most is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to test what feels useful, adjust tactics based on how someone responds, and combine elements from both approaches when that fits the client's goals and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapy fits around work or family responsibilities. Licensed professionals often use video or phone formats for these practical benefits, and she will discuss what works best for scheduling and attention during the first meeting.
