About Melissa LaCour, LPC | Telehealth Therapist in Ohio
I’m a Louisiana-based therapist with a privilege to practice in Ohio — which means you get the convenience of telehealth with a counselor who brings real depth and lived experience to the work.
I’m an adoptee. I’ve navigated career changes, loss, and the kind of hard questions that don’t have easy answers. I didn’t become a therapist because I have it all figured out — I became one because I know what it’s like to need a space where you can ask the questions that matter most.
My approach is warm and direct. I won’t hand you a worksheet you could have Googled. I’ll sit with you in the uncomfortable, challenge you where you need it, and help you build the kind of self-knowledge that changes everything.
