Hello, thank you for taking the time to review my page. I am Luisa, a licensed counselor with many years of experience in trauma therapy, play therapy, and individual counseling. Like many other people, my life has been full of many ups and downs, but those experiences have enhanced my ability to empathize with my clients struggles. I believe in a holistic approach, integrating the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of one's life. I am trained in many modalities that I use in my practice, but one of the most important things that I do is create a safe space where you can explore and try new things in your healing journey.

I work with individuals who are going through major life changes and challenges and are looking for new meaning. To book with me directly, check out my website by clicking on "website" on this page which also outlines more of my specialties and experience. I believe people know what's best for themselves but lose sight of what that means when we get busy at work or tragedy hits. It's common and normal for these situations to require some guidance, support, and maybe a good laugh.

Oppositional Defiance (ODD) Therapists
What is the most effective treatment for oppositional defiant disorder?
The treatment of Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) will involve multiple approaches designed to help both the youngster and their parents, sometimes including medication. A therapist will help a child learn ways to regulate their emotions, curb their impulsiveness, and counteract anger, defiance, and disruption, while showing parents ways to bring these lessons into their home. A technique designed for children with conditions like ODD, known as Collaborative and Proactive Solutions (CPS), may also be used. CPS addresses a child’s concerns and rewards appropriate responses while discouraging harsh punishment or criticism.
How does treatment for oppositional defiant disorder work?
Treatment for ODD addresses the issues underlying a child’s defiance and disruption, the emotional regulation and impulse-control skills they lack, and the way adults respond to them. ODD therapy is based on the idea that children with the disorder understand the difference between right and wrong, that they want to behave well, and that, with help, they can. By responding to the child with empathy instead of harsh criticism, ignoring nonviolent behaviors, and rewarding positive actions, a therapist, and the other adults in a child’s life, can help children improve their behavior.
How long does therapy for oppositional defiant disorder take?
Therapy for oppositional defiant disorder is not a short-term undertaking. Depending on the severity of a child’s symptoms, their age, the presence of other conditions like ADHD, anxiety or a mood disorder, and their family dynamic, it can take months before improvement is noted. The cooperation of parents and teachers is crucial, because the skills learned in therapy must be practiced in real-world situations, with all their potential triggers.
Does oppositional defiant disorder go away?
ODD can remit following treatment. ODD is often diagnosed in nursery school, and early intervention is essential for a positive prognosis. In two-thirds of children, according to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, symptoms resolve within three years.
