Ludine Pierre, LPCC, Supervisor (she/her)
BIO:
I’m Ludine, she/her, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (CA#9688, LPCMHSP TN#4377), as well as a supervisor and therapist at Spaces Therapy.
My approach is informed by relational psychodynamic perspectives. I believe that harmonious relationships create pathways for change – not by achieving perfection, but by learning to tolerate the complexities of being human. I work from a trauma-informed lens, integrating knowledge about the nervous system to help clients understand how their brain and body communicate in states of fear or distress. I also use somatic theory to support mind-body connection, guiding individuals to align with their values for transformation. All of this is in service of helping you get better connected to yourself and to others, especially when navigating anxiety in relationships or seeking deeper relationship therapy. At Spaces Therapy, I deeply value bringing your whole self into the therapeutic space, believing that healing happens through real, human connection where all parts of us are welcome.
Guiding Principles:
I deeply value being your whole self in the therapy space. Over the years, I’ve come to believe that healing happens through real, human connection–one where all parts of us are welcome. I approach therapy as a collaborative process, meeting each person where they are with respect, curiosity and compassion. My hope is to help people establish acceptance in who they are, highlight what’s working vs not working, deepen self-understanding, and move towards greater self-trust. At the core of my work is a belief that each person’s growth journey is unique and therapy is simply a vehicle to allow you to evolve.
My Style of Therapy:
Supportive
I find that the most meaningful work and healing can happen in spaces that invite you to be yourself. I provide a steady, grounding presence, offering warmth, validation, and curiosity as we explore your experiences together.
Direct
I believe in honesty with care. I offer clear and to-the-point reflections and insights, helping to highlight patterns and possibilities for change. You'll find that I ask questions because I truly want to understand how you see and experience the world. I call things as I see them, gently inviting clients into deeper reflection when ready, and will connect you to resources and help you develop skills to assist you.
Compassionate
Healing happens in connection. I approach our work with deep empathy, honoring your story without judgment and helping you cultivate self-compassion along the way.
Holistic
I integrate the mind-body connection, relational dynamics, and the ways the environment shapes a sense of self, offering a whole-person approach to healing. Whether through traditional talk therapy or ocean-based somatic practices, I create spaces where clients can explore change while respecting their pace.
