Crescent City Connections
Independence for Students
Peace of Mind for Parents
Finding the right therapist shouldn't feel overwhelming.
Crescent City Connections helps college students and their families find the right mental health support in New Orleans. Instead of spending hours searching online, making calls, and wondering who might be a good fit, we use more than 15 years of clinical experience and trusted local relationships to connect students with therapists and other professionals who fit their individual needs.
And sometimes, therapy isn't the only support a student needs. We can also help families find psychiatric care, academic support, and executive functioning coaching for organization, time management, routines, self-advocacy, and navigating college more independently.
You tell us what your student needs. We help you figure out where to start and who can help.
How it Works

With a Plan
Start with a conversation with the student, a parent, or both, in person or virtually. We’ll talk about what’s working, what isn’t, and what kind of help may be needed.
Therapist? Psychiatrist? Academic support? Executive functioning coaching? Sometimes families know exactly what they need. Sometimes they don’t. We help determine the best next step.
We connect you with carefully selected New Orleans providers who fit your student’s needs, including providers who are currently accepting new clients.
You leave with clear next steps and connections to the right people, without spending hours researching providers or trying to navigate the process from afar.

Peace of Mind
Parents know someone local is in their student's corner. Students get the support they need without feeling like a problem to be managed from afar.
I’ve known Aden for many years as both a trusted colleague and friend, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She has a wealth of experience working with young adults and families and is incredibly well connected within the New Orleans community. Aden has a gift for understanding what someone needs and knowing who or what might be the right fit. She is warm, knowledgeable, resourceful, and genuinely invested in helping college students navigate being away from home for the first time, while also providing invaluable peace of mind to their parents.
Aden is a great therapist and really has her finger on the pulse of resources in the New Orleans area. She is an amazing advocate for her clients and an unwavering supporter. I would highly recommend her services!
