Welcome to Empowering Expressions with Nicole de la Fuente! As a queer Hispanic woman who has lived in New Orleans for almost nine years, I bring a unique perspective to my work as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), drawing from my experiences growing up in Texas and my passion for the arts. With over six years of professional experience working with children and adolescents, I aim to combine therapeutic techniques with creative expression to foster healing and growth. When I'm not working, you can find me enjoying live music, relaxing by the Bayou, or cozying up with a good book at home.
