As an associate professional clinical counselor, Loua works with individuals expereincing depression, grief, anxiety and other issues. Her approach to therapy comes from an integrative and holistic perspective that tailors each client’s treatment to their unique needs. Loua enjoys working with and getting to know clients from all different populations and age groups. In therapy, she values creating a nonjudgmental and safe place for clients to share, process, and reflect. She does this through the incorporation of CBT, mindfulness, and deep breathing exercises into sessions.

At Discover Counseling Center, we believe emotional and relational healing is a multi-step process. Our goal is to help individuals, couples and children find healing through self discovery, to find healthy ways to express thoughts and feelings, and to learn how to communicate to gain understanding and compromise. We not only guide our clients though this emotional exploration, but will also provide tools to help achieve measurable improvements in your life.

Whether you are struggling with trauma, anxiety, or depression, going through a difficult life transition, having trouble with relationships, or simply want to leave behind some habits that are no longer serving you, participating in psychotherapy sessions can make all the difference in helping you achieve your wellness goals.

I help people who have experienced trauma gain feelings of peace and freedom. Feelings such as anxiety, numbness, and physical exhaustion are what I want to help you deal with and transform. Do you feel like a piece of you was hurt or broken, and now you can't connect with your true self? Perhaps these negative reactions you are having seem to continually affect your life. My goal is to help you have a better chance of reaching your whole self. The scars of your past do not need to effect your future. I want to help you repair and heal that piece of you that was hurt from your trauma.

You can do hard things and I'm here to help you.

I am a bilingual (English & Spanish) Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist who wants to hear, understand, and validate your experience in a compassionate, non-judgmental setting.

Sometimes the hardest thing in life is to forgive yourself, or forgive others for what has happened. It can really keep you stuck in the same cycle, over and over, depressed, and anxious. It is like Kryptonite; it keeps you from living the life you want to live, and from discovering the superpowers you have inside of you. What would happen if you could use those superpowers? What would happen if you were to feel your enthusiasm again? Where would you go, what would you do, what new skills would you like to learn? Where is your Kryptonite hidden.

My goal is to help families and individuals in crisis. I have 3 areas of passion. First, I love working with children, teenagers, and their parents. Children were the reason I decided to seek a career in psychology. My second area of passion is working with my clients to rewire their brains and change emotional reactions. I integrate mindfulness, coping and self-soothing skills, and other tools in both individual adult and adolescent therapy. Finally, I enjoy neuropsychological and psychological assessments, viewing each one as a puzzle and I put my full effort into understanding the final outcome and treatment recommendations.

Finding a psychotherapist you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings with can seem like a great challenge. As you search, it is helpful to be mindful of what is bringing you to therapy and what you are wanting from a therapist. When you find someone you think you may be able to bond with, you can talk with them about what you are looking for and if you don't know, ask them how they envision working with you. As a psychologist with over 30 years of experience, I believe that meeting the client where they are is the key to creating a safe and supportive environment conducive to change.

Bad things are bound to happen in life - this is just part of being alive. Sometimes it is easy for us to bounce back to our to normal lives & then there are those other times where it seems as if we are stuck on a rollercoaster of emotions with no end in sight. And then at other moments, we think that we've dealt with this bad thing, only to have it keep popping up in random ways in our lives. Being in that kind of place can feel frustrating, confusing, lonely, and let's face it, pretty scary because it is difficult to know what to do, where to go, or who to turn to for help.
