About Nenette
Nenette Keenan is a licensed marriage and family therapist with ten years of professional experience. She is licensed in Louisiana and North Carolina and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties. Nenette speaks plainly and meets people where they are at in their lives.
Her work begins by listening to each person's story and noticing strengths. She uses narrative ideas to help people see how the stories they tell about themselves shape their choices.
Background and approach
She also draws on attachment-based approaches to explore how early relationships affect current closeness and trust. Sessions are practical and conversational. Nenette uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in the room.
She also integrates cognitive behavioral ideas to help change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns when needed. Many people come for help with trust, abandonment, communication problems, or blended family strain. She also supports those coping with body image concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, and the emotional fallout of divorce or separation.
Nenette aims to create a calm space to talk through difficult feelings like guilt, shame, emptiness, and impulsivity. She helps people set realistic steps forward and practices tools together in session. Taking the first step can feel hard, and Nenette recognizes that beginning therapy is an act of courage.

Online session options
How narrative and attachment work online
In online sessions Nenette often draws on Narrative Therapy to help people examine the stories they use about themselves and their relationships. Narrative work helps separate the person from the problem so they can try different ways of understanding difficult patterns and make new choices.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current closeness and trust. This approach helps when people want clearer communication, better emotional connection, or relief from patterns of avoidance and anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy is a steady part of her style too, which means sessions follow the client's priorities and pace rather than a fixed agenda.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they try approaches, check what helps, and adjust as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to support different needs. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Messaging and live chat allow quick check-ins and flexible scheduling. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
