Hey there! I'm Viki, your friendly neighborhood child and adolescent counselor. I am here to help your child to find their voice and gain control over their emotions. I am here to help you to feel less overwhelmed with the struggles of parenthood and understand your child’s needs better.
I offer in-person and telehealth sessions in southeast Louisiana. Give us call today if you’re ready to help your child meet their emotional health needs. I look forward to getting to know you and your child!
credentials + qualifications
It’s important you know that I am qualified to be your therapist. I received a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the CACREP-accredited counseling program at the Nicholls State University. Additionally, I received a Bachelors degree in Psychology from Nicholls State. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana and National Certified Counselor (NCC).I have been trained in EMDR, TBRI, and Functional Family Therapy-Child Welfare. I am required to complete continuing education regularly to maintain my license and certification, which allows me to remain up-to-date on current studies and therapeutic interventions.
services
I provide individual counseling to children and adolescents that need professional support to navigate the ups and downs of life that may face. Everything from wanting your child to have better coping skills to transitioning to major life changes and everything in-between. I use a client-centered therapeutic approach to best help your child meet their emotional and behavioral health needs.
Therapy goals and sessions will be tailored to your child’s specific needs. During your child’s initial visit, I will complete a behavioral health assessment to gain a better understanding of those needs. I require that at least one parent be present for the initial visit to be able to provide information needed. Following sessions will likely be weekly or every other week dependent on your child’s needs. I request that at least one parent be present for follow up visits to be able to discuss and collaborate on your child’s progress and care.
insurance + fees
I charge $180 for a behavioral health assessment, which is completed during the initial visit. Follow up individual counseling sessions are $125.00 per 50-minute session. Payment is due at the end of each session. I accept credit card through my EHR, cash, or checks made payable to Rodrigue Counseling Services, LLC.
Rodrigue Counseling Services, LLC is contracted with several insurances, including BlueCross BlueShield, United HealthCare (Commercial and Medicaid), Optum Health, UMR, Aetna (Commercial and Medicaid), Healthy Blue, Louisiana Healthcare Connections, Cigna, Oscar Health, and Oxford.
Please understand that mental Health services are usually a separate subcontracted policy from your main medical policy, so you may owe differently than if you were seeing a medical doctor. If you are unsure of your mental health benefits, call the number on the back of your insurance card to find out potential costs to you. A copy of the client's insurance card(s) is required to be on file.

This waiting list is not recommended for children and adolescents who need immediate services. If your child is in crisis, please contact the National Crisis Prevention Line at 988 for professional support.
