Shirley Louisor, LPC, LMHC
About me
Life is ever changing; the challenge is to be able to manage and keep moving forward while maintaining a positive and healthy mindset. Most of the time the answers to our questions, fears and even desires are just a matter of reaching forward to take action and working through it. Let's work together, I'm here to help.
We are communal beings and benefit from the assistance of someone coming along side us to help. That is what I believe therapy is a collaborative effort to reach your desired goals.
I am a graduate of Regent University (2011) with a Master's degree in counseling, a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia, and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida.
As an outpatient therapist, I enjoy working with individuals, families, and children. I have extensive experience working with groups, individual counseling, premarital, marital, couples, family relationships, adults, adolescents and children. I have worked with children in schools as a therapeutic day counselor, intensive in-home counselor working with at- risk children and their families. I have also facilitated support groups for individuals dealing with depression, anxiety and bipolar.

I am still in therapy with Mrs. Louisor. She is the third therapist I’ve had as I was not able to connect with the others, and Mrs. Louisor is amazing. Third times the charm. Mrs. Louisor is very personable with experience. But most important spiritual. She has helped in many ways so far.

Shirley is wise and steady. She listens carefully and responds with care and concern. She is genuinely interested and involved in helping her clients. She has helped me move from a bad mental state to a great one. I highly recommend her. I am glad we matched.
