Welcome! Iām Dr. Alexandra Benoit.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana, and I provide therapy and counseling services to residents of Louisiana. Due to licensing laws, I am only legally authorized to provide treatment to clients who reside in the state in which I hold my license, which is LA.

My therapy practice is 100% online. I provide teletherapy using video conferencing, which means you can conveniently access therapy from the comfort of your home or wherever is most convenient to you, without the burdensome commute to a therapy office.
For your privacy, I use only HIPAA compliant digital platforms and communication methods.
My specialties
Perinatal Mental Health: I have completed specialized training in the treatment of perinatal mood and anxiety disorder through Postpartum Support International and am on my way to becoming a certified perinatal mental health professional. Perinatal mental health includes mood and anxiety disorders that originate or worsen anytime during the perinatal period, which includes conception, pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the postpartum period up to 18 months post-delivery. These disorders include, but are not limited to, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, grief related to pregnancy or infant loss, mood and anxiety problems related to infertility, or the experience of being pregnant.
