About Drauzin
Drauzin Kern is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana with 38 years of clinical experience. He helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, trauma, and challenges around identity and intimacy. He also addresses codependency, caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, and other pressures that come from caring for others.
He uses practical, talk-based sessions to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions focus on clearer communication, stronger boundaries, and managing intense emotions. Kern draws on methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people act in line with their values and test new behaviors.
Attachment-based ideas are woven into conversations about relationships and family of origin issues. This helps when people repeat old patterns or feel stuck in recurring conflicts. Existential therapy informs discussions about meaning, choice, and navigating life changes.
People often come when they feel overwhelmed by someone else’s needs, keep putting others first, or struggle to say no. Kern aims to help them recognize those patterns and practice different ways of relating without blaming themselves.

How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It can be useful for anxiety, people-pleasing, and when someone feels stuck repeating the same patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical experiments to test new responses to stress and relationship triggers. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in early relationships and how they show up now, which can be helpful for intimacy problems, abandonment concerns, and family of origin issues.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through your goals and preferred pace. Together you will try methods that fit the problem at hand and adjust as you learn what helps most.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It also allows conversations about values, boundary practice, and behavior experiments to continue between appointments, supporting steady progress in everyday life.
