Louis does a great job listening to and then discussing my concerns in a way that presents things in a more manageable way. I definitely appreciate his approach and support.

Louis has helped me a lot by providing different perspectives and different ways to go about thinking and living my life. I really have felt stuck, and Louis is helping me get "unstuck."

Although I have just begun therapy with Louis, I believe he is listening to me and trying to understand me and what I am wanting out of therapy. Good experience so far.

Louis is able to engage me with humor and real-life responses that make me feel comfortable opening up and trusting he understands where I'm coming from.
