About Luis
Luis Roman is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with six years of clinical experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, depression, trauma, grief, anger, and related concerns. He also addresses issues like self-esteem, career stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Luis focuses on helping people improve how they communicate. He draws on his own upbringing in a Puerto Rican household to explain patterns of raised voices and limited active listening. That background informs simple, practical work on how people speak and listen to each other.
He uses psychoeducation to make mental health conditions easier to understand and less stigmatized. That includes explaining diagnoses and common reactions in plain language. He has worked with people facing co-occurring substance use and mental health issues.
His settings have included PROS programs, residential facilities, and outpatient clinics. Those roles shaped his approach to building realistic treatment plans and supporting goals like getting and keeping work. He helps people identify small, doable steps toward better communication and daily functioning.
Luis earned a bachelor's degree from Lehman College and a master's degree from the College of New Rochelle. He currently practices in an outpatient clinic in the Bronx. People who want straightforward skills for handling anger, improving conversations, or managing stress may find his style direct and practical.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person and their goals. It focuses on active listening and reflecting what the client says to improve self-understanding and communication; it can help when anger shows up in close relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It breaks down patterns that feed anger and teaches practical skills for responding differently in tense moments. Mindfulness Therapy builds simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and increase awareness of triggers.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. He will work with each person to choose approaches that match their needs and goals. That conversation is collaborative and revisited as progress is made so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Session formats are not specified in his biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel. These practical advantages can help people practice communication skills and anger management strategies in the flow of everyday life.
