Dr. Dr. Barbara Humbles is a Louisiana-licensed clinician with 35 years of professional experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. She holds LPC and LMFT credentials - Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - and brings a long history of working with stress, anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, grief and loss, intimacy concerns, and issues that affect military families during active duty and retirement.

In that environment she collaborates with clients to identify goals, develop coping skills, and strengthen communication and connection within relationships.

With experience across decades of practice, she applies evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person’s needs and circumstances. She understands that seeking help takes courage and supports people at whatever stage they are in their healing and growth.
