New Orleans, NOLA, The Big Easy. The Crescent City.

We dance in the streets for funerals, and put our children on 6 foot ladders for parades! However, living in such a special place doesn’t shelter you from life challenges that can lead to anxiety and depression. New Orleanians pride themselves on being resilient and able to get through very tough times. But, sometimes the stress is too much to have to handle alone. When this happens, you should reach out and talk to someone. Get help and support.
