About Michael
Dr. Michael Becerra brings 14 years of counseling experience to his Louisiana practice, offering support for concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, self-esteem, career transitions, parenting, sleeping problems, anger, and LGBT-related concerns.
Background and approach
He has worked across community settings, school districts, college campuses, and vocational rehabilitation agencies, and has experience with disability, immigration, and motivation or confidence challenges. He also lived for six years in Colombia, where he worked with intercultural heterosexual and gay couples as well as US expats and volunteers adjusting to life abroad.
His manner is described as laid back and interactive, grounded in a humanistic perspective influenced by Adlerian ideas about growth and social interest. He integrates solution-focused methods alongside developmental and narrative-informed thinking to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.
Dr. Becerra emphasizes collaboration, empowerment, and practical steps toward managing life’s tasks and relationships.
He holds an LPC credential and practices in Louisiana, drawing on diverse settings and cultural experience to inform a pragmatic, supportive approach to therapy.
Approaches that Shape Online Sessions and What to Expect
Dr. Becerra uses narrative-informed work to help people examine the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships, offering new perspectives that can reduce distress and open paths to change. He also employs Solution-Focused Therapy, which concentrates on identifying small, concrete steps and strengths that lead to tangible progress when coping with stress, career shifts, or relationship challenges.Choosing an approach is collaborative: the therapist works with each client to determine which methods align with their goals, preferences, and the particular issues they bring. That means trying strategies, evaluating what helps, and adjusting course together so the work remains practical and client-centered.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent support during life transitions, when handling daily stressors, or while navigating relationship and ADHD-related concerns, and they allow the therapist and client to focus on meaningful, solution-oriented work from wherever the client is located within the region served.
