Hi there, I'm Luisiana. Do you feel overwhelmed and exhausted by the challenges that life throws your way? Would you like to enhance the quality of life you deserve? A safe space to process difficult thoughts and feelings? I empower individuals to thrive in their environments by working on tough emotions, feelings and actions that may be preventing one from living their fullest potential. I enjoy utilizing a hollistic approach to support you to organically reach your therapeutic goals healing the mind, body and soul. Together we can analyze and address the root and help you fulfill your desired goals. I lean into a more client centered approach ensuring you to feel safe, comfortable, genuineness and authenticity. *I am also Spanish Speaking*
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Beginning therapy is the first step in taking the wheel of your life. With each session I support and guide you in continuing to take that road you desire to achieve fulfillment, happiness and peace. Often, I will check in with you to ensure you feel your sessions are going in the direction you'd hope and shift as needed.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Naturally, I lean into a more client centered approach as well as may integrate other evidence based models such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma focused cbt, solution focused, motivational interviewing, humanistic and a systems model. I am open to utilizing any other modality you may feel comfortable with.
