About Luis
Luis Roman is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with six years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, anger, self esteem, career worries, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. He also works on attachment and abandonment issues, blended family challenges, communication problems, and substance use concerns.
He emphasizes improving how people communicate. He uses psychoeducation to explain diagnoses and reduce stigma. Sessions often involve clear, practical steps to notice interaction patterns and try different ways of responding. He helps people set specific goals and track progress over time.
Roman combines several approaches in straightforward ways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy informs the way he listens and reflects a person’s experience. Mindfulness techniques are used to build present-moment awareness and manage stress.
His background includes work in PROS programs, residential treatment, and outpatient clinics. He has supported people with co-occurring mental health and substance use issues and helped clients build treatment plans that include employment and daily functioning goals. He holds a Bachelor’s degree from Lehman College and a Master’s degree from the College of New Rochelle.
In sessions he focuses on clear communication skills, concrete coping tools, and practical problem solving. Prospective clients should confirm current session options when they schedule their first appointment.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Roman commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts and behaviors into concrete experiments that clients can try between meetings. CBT helps with symptoms like anxiety, depression, and patterns that feed relationship problems by focusing on specific thought patterns and small behavior changes.He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means listening closely and reflecting what clients say so they can clarify goals. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve focus in everyday moments.
Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences and adjust those methods as work progresses.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting appointments into a busy week and maintaining consistency without long travel. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to try short check-ins, practice skills between meetings, or schedule appointments around work or caregiving responsibilities.
