Nenette Keenan, LMFT

Nenette Keenan is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 10 years of clinical experience. She is licensed in Louisiana and North Carolina and focuses on common life strains such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and relationship troubles. She emphasizes a respectful, straightforward approach that centers the person in the room. Her style is collaborative and warm. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and builds on strengths already present. Sessions move at a person's pace and focus on practical steps that can reduce distress day to day. Nenette draws on methods that address how people connect, think, and feel. She uses approaches that look at attachment and relationship patterns, ways of changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and techniques to process difficult memories. Those tools are chosen to match the concern a person brings. She has particular experience helping with abandonment and attachment issues, blended family stress, caregiver strain, codependency, communication struggles, and problems around control, impulsivity, guilt, shame, and body image. Nenette also supports people coping with separation, domestic violence effects, family conflict, and the emptiness that can follow major life changes. Taking the first step can feel hard. Nenette aims to make beginning therapy clear and manageable, helping people set small goals and try changes that fit their daily life.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connection patterns affect current relationships. It helps people understand their emotional responses and change how they relate to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to shift those patterns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is an approach used to process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made. If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as limiting travel time, scheduling shorter check-ins during a break, or attending from a quieter space when that is possible. Licensed professionals can guide how to adapt these approaches over video or phone, and they will help tailor exercises and homework so they fit everyday routines.
