At Rising Potential Counseling LCSW, PLLC, I maintain a flexible and adaptable approach to therapy.

TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Say
Words cannot express how grateful I am for having Luis as a therapist.
At the time Luis came into my life as my therapist, I was in a daily battle with myself, my family, and my life. I saw no way out of the depression. I decided to give therapy a try and fill out a form to be contacted. Less than 24 hours went by, and Luis set up appointments and got the ball rolling on my journey to recovery. My family was skeptical about therapy, but these last 7 months have tremendously changed us and our dynamic. Luis has guided me to find my own way out of the hole that I was living in, which seemed to be getting deeper by the hour. He has taught me many coping skills and explained things to me in ways that I understand. Our family has a ways to go, but we have each grown in this process of therapy. Even when dark days come our way, we are confident that we can get through it, coming out better than ever. Luis has a frank, engaging personality, making me feel very hopeful throughout therapy. In just 7 short months, I can now move forward from the past, confidently making each moment better than the last.
