About Nenette

Nenette Keenan is a licensed marriage and family therapist with ten years of professional experience. She practices in Louisiana and brings a straightforward, respectful approach to sessions. Nenette emphasizes clients' strengths and works alongside them to face stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma, grief, and depression.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and helps them name what matters most. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and building trust in relationships and in oneself.

Nenette applies methods that draw on attachment ideas and emotion-focused work to help people understand their patterns with others. She also uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and EMDR when trauma memories need processing. These approaches are woven together to match each person's needs rather than used in a one-size-fits-all way.

She helps with concerns that often come up around family roles and close relationships, including attachment wounds, blended family challenges, codependency, communication breakdowns, and divorce or separation stress. Nenette also supports people dealing with body image, caregiver stress, guilt and shame, and impulsivity.

If someone is ready to begin, Nenette guides them through a short intake and goal-setting process. She keeps the work practical and focused on steps clients can use between sessions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Nenette uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds shape current relationships, which helps when patterns of distance or clinginess cause repeated conflict. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of her work, which means sessions focus on listening, empathy, and helping people decide their next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. During early sessions she will talk with each person about goals, what has worked before, and how they prefer to work. Together they choose methods that match the issue at hand and personal preferences rather than relying on a single model.

If someone wants online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and let people join from a quieter room or a short break at work. It also tends to allow for flexible scheduling and consistent weekly check-ins while keeping the focus on practical tools and emotional processing.
