About Luis

Luis Rosa is a licensed clinical mental health counselor with 30 years of experience in New Hampshire. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma and abuse, and challenges with self-esteem. He aims to make the first step feel less overwhelming and meets new clients with straightforward support and steady presence.

In sessions he focuses on clear, practical steps and honest conversation. He encourages people to talk about what they are feeling and thinking without pressure.

Background and approach

That steady, calm approach helps when emotions feel intense or overwhelming. His work draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, narrative work, and trauma-focused methods. He uses those tools to help people change unhelpful thinking, build emotional skills, and make sense of painful experiences.

Techniques are explained plainly and practiced in ways that fit everyday life. Luis supports a wide range of concerns including relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, anger, career stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and issues tied to identity and discrimination. He emphasizes collaboration so goals are clear and realistic.

Progress is approached one step at a time. Sessions are offered in English and include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Luis holds the LCMHC credential - licensed clinical mental health counselor - with licensure numbers NH LCMHC 2167 and VT LCMHC 068.0136403.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, helps people identify and change thought patterns that feed anxiety or depression. Online sessions use this work to build practical tools and small experiments you can do between meetings.

DBT, or dialectical behavior therapy, focuses on emotional regulation and coping skills. It teaches concrete strategies for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance, which can be practiced during video or phone sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review a person’s needs, goals, and preferences and recommend methods that make sense. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit regular work on symptoms and skills into busy lives and to use therapeutic tools when they’re most needed.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
