Top therapists in Washington who accept Premera Blue Cross

My name is Eguenel Louis, I am a Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor. I am licensed in FL, GA, MA, AR, and WA. I specialized in Mental Health Issues, Addiction and Faith-based counseling. I strive to empower my clients to identify areas in their lives they want to change and to help them get "unstuck" from negative core beliefs, patterns and behaviors that are no longer serving them. My approach with clients is solution focused and goal oriented; I utilize an eclectic method to psychotherapy which incorporates cognitive behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, motivational interviewing, warm personal and unconditional positive regard interventions. I wake up every morning looking forward to sharing a message of hope by helping my clients address their co-occurring disorders to reach long term sobriety and serenity by developing healthy coping skills.

My philosophy is that each client is different although they may have similar issues or problems. I believe that my counseling style is eclectic, as to meet each client’s individual needs. My purpose is to help identify my client’s goals and assist in empowering the individual to make those positive changes in their lives. Making decisions may be difficult, but I believe in using a compassionate, direct, and non-judgmental approach to create an environment where each client will feel supported in their counseling journey. I am a resolute and patient-focused therapist with a focus on assisting people’s growth and understanding of self. I am also a dedicated rehabilitation professional working to improve the lives of individuals with disabilities or injuries. Open to working with children/adolescents 13 years and older.

I believe clients have a wealth of information and knowhow on how to solve their own problems but have become stuck for one reason or another. I meet the client wherever they find themselves and build from there. The work in sessions is gradual and in step with the client. In every session, beginning in the first session, goals will be set and the client, together with the therapist, will work towards those goals through exercises. Examples used in session are often drawn from client’s personal experiences on overcoming past difficulties and hardships, positively. Mindfulness and meditation will be part of some or all sessions. If the client is willing to work on past traumas, anxieties and phobias, Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing or EMDR will be offered. Cognitive Behavior Therapy or CBT and its exercises will be part of all or some sessions.

My philosophy is one of pragmatism. I believe that life is a sport and we don't always know who the opponent is. I also believe that everyone is an expert in their life whether they know it or not. Therefore, I strive to encourage others to establish their core values and then train and strength their mind for the sport of life. I encourage them to live their best life and to keep getting up no matter how many times they are knocked down.
