About Soleil

Soleil Totchum, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor in Louisiana with six years of experience. She works with people facing relationship strain, family conflict, low self-esteem, depression, and those seeking coaching for life transitions. She is bilingual and speaks English, Spanish, and French.

Soleil focuses on practical conversation and concrete steps. She helps people talk through attachment concerns, abandonment and adoption questions, blended family stress, and communication problems. She also supports people dealing with body image, caregiver stress, codependency, and fertility-related strain.

Sessions look at what is happening now and what patterns came from family of origin issues. Soleil addresses dependent personality traits, feelings of emptiness, and the fallout from divorce or separation. She offers straightforward tools for managing emotions and improving interactions with others.

Her work pays attention to cultural background and life transitions, including pregnancy and postpartum matters and workplace pressures for women. Soleil frames challenges in everyday terms and suggests small, doable actions clients can try between sessions.

People can expect conversations that move from understanding to action. Soleil describes options clearly and helps set realistic short-term goals. To start, prospective clients follow the site steps to choose online therapy options, complete a brief matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How evidence-based approaches guide online work

Soleil uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and relational patterns. One common approach helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that feed low mood or social avoidance; it breaks big problems into small actions to try between sessions. Another approach looks at attachment and family of origin patterns to understand why certain relationship reactions repeat and to build different ways of connecting and communicating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Soleil will discuss options and help decide what fits a person’s goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That collaboration includes checking what feels doable and adjusting methods as progress continues.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove the need to travel. Licensed professionals can use these formats to help clients practice social and communication skills in real-life settings and to follow up on exercises between meetings.
