Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
My name is Drauzin Kern and I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker. Over the past thirty 37 years, I have been fortunate to have worked closely with clients over a broad range of challenges including depression, coping with grief and loss, LGBTQIA+ related concerns, relationship issues, compassion fatigue and managing life-changes.
I completed my graduate studies at Columbia University School of Social Work in New York in 1988 and I practiced psychotherapy in New York, California and Louisiana. My husband Nick and I currently make our home in South Louisiana, USA, along with our wonderful, Willis.
Being a therapist is my life’s work. My intention is to meet every client with respect, understanding, compassion and without judgement. My theoretical approach incorporates Humanistic and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, and I work collaboratively with every client to develop a treatment plan that will best address their needs.
I have great admiration for every person that chooses the path of vulnerability when entering therapy. Vulnerability, according to Brene Brown, is STRENGTH. But it can take great courage to embrace our vulnerable humanity, but when we do, we are already on the path of transformation and joy. Vulnerability allows us to “speak our truth,” and the TRUTH always sets us free.
Best wishes!

Many people wonder whether online therapy can produce meaningful results. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
An important advantage of remote care is flexibility – individuals can connect in the way that works best for them, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to access support from different locations.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and clients have the option to change therapists if they are seeking a different fit. For many people, the combination of demonstrated effectiveness and flexible delivery makes online therapy a practical and accessible option for addressing everyday mental health concerns.
