Dana Judice MSW, LCSW |
Meet Dana JudiceDana Judice, a native from Loreauville, Louisiana, was born in the 60's to a large family. Dana learned throughout his childhood that despite being surrounded by a large family, a person could feel alone. During his childhood, his father remained aloof and this distance filtered into Dana's own psyche leaving him to wonder, "What's wrong with me?" After spending years away from family, as suggested by a therapist he was seeing, he began to realize sometimes people's actions did not fit their heart. Sometimes people respond in the only manner they know how. When you use a screwdriver to drive a nail in the wall, the results are not what you desire, but; if all you have is a screwdriver to work with, the results can't be helped. This is what Dana learned in his time away. Sometimes good people don't know how to show they care because they weren't handed the proper tools to develop healthy relationships.
And so his quest to focus on bettering his own life began, but not without its own trials and triumphs. Dana graduated with a BS (Bachelor of Science) at USL and received his MSW (Master of Social Work) at LSU. He has worked within the realm of the social services field for over 20 years with many of his earlier years counseling children in Ft. Hood, Texas and Ft. Polk, Louisiana. Children have always been special to Dana and he learned a myriad of lessons viewing the glass through a child's innocent eyes. He is also a local author in Acadiana who has published 2 children's books in more recent years. |
Dana, being a father who devotes his free time to his own children, has found life shifting over these past few years. He is accredited in the 15th and 16th District Court with his primary focus to assist those who struggle with substance abuse issues, addictive personalities, individuals needing anger management, and those who are mandated by the court for evaluation and counseling. Contact him today if you are feeling challenged in one of these areas.
