holistic trauma healing
When we experience a traumatic event, our bodies get flooded with charge. For many of us, the charge gets stuck and builds throughout our lives causing inflammation and excess adrenaline which leads to, both, physical and mental imbalances. My work reaches the root of the imbalance, the body, through somatic techniques, whole food nutrition, and herbalism.

common questions
Are you a licensed psychotherapist?
No, I am not. I majored in Psychology and then discontinued that path to study nutrition, herbalism, and somatic techniques instead. I found much quicker, deeper, and satisfying results coming from this holistic therapy compared to traditional talk therapy & psychoanalysis.
What are your credentials?
1987 - 2012: life experience. Read my story if you haven't here.
2012: I completed a 2-year training with the Trinity School of Natural Health & was certified in nutritional counseling.
2012: I launched my private nutritional and counseling practice.
2017: I became certified in coaching from the Institute For Life Coach Training.
2020: I am currently trained in advanced Somatic Experiencing™ through the Somatic Experiencing™ Trauma Institute.

are you taking new clients
Currently, I am not accepting new clients for 1-on-1 work. Instead, I offer a 6-week online course, monthly webinars & circles, as well as a free podcast. You can also follow me on Instagram & Facebook for weekly teachings and philosophies.
I don't want to work on my trauma - can we just talk about food?
Absolutely. I can help you navigate healing your physical body through food & herbs alone. If symptoms persist or return while on a protocol, then I would suggest considering trauma work.
can i work with you & my therapist?
Absolutely. My work is an excellent compliment to any other modality of healing.

Luis is a truly skilled practitioner...I started working with Luis to handle some internal sensations and anxieties. Within 2 sessions Luis was able to help me access the source of these issues and we started unpacking and resolving them. It's now six months later and the whole situation just feels like a distant memory.

I was referred to Luis by a friend after suffering from chronic illness and trauma for several years. He is the most kind, understanding and wise soul...his approach to healing is rooted in his own experience with trauma. Each session I feel long lost parts of myself come alive - and a healing I have not experienced elsewhere.

Luis was the ONLY healer who treated my thyroid issue and FIXED IT! The Dr's wanted to take my thyroid out, they said there was no hope. Luis cleared the problem up in under two weeks. He is learned, experienced, compassionate, innovative and professional. The best in the business, hands down.

His vast storehouse of herbal and nutritional knowledge [has] taken years off my arthritis. Luis' counsel is wise and deep. It’s a joy to be in his company and I recommend the experience to everyone.

Luis is a deep listener with the perception to hear both the spoken and the unspoken. He does it all with gentleness and a deep respect for boundaries and who you are. He is a treasure.

Through his guidance, knowledge and understanding of [my] illness he was able to help me in ways that I never thought was possible with treating the issue through Nutrition. I highly recommend Luis for your Nutrition and heal needs, from a Spiritual, mental or physical level.

For any mental or physical health issue I can only recommend getting Luis' take on it. He has helped my family and my self combat so many issues, from Lyme's to allergies & insomnia. Luis has a rare comprehension of what the word "holistic" truly means. I cannot recommend him enough.

Luis connects the dots for your body, mind, spirit. I am a better person because of Luis. He sees me, he holds me accountable, he unfolds and opens secrets, the good and the ugly, where I can face all of me in a safe and loving environment .

My experience of working with Luis has been truly life changing and incredibly illuminating. Luis showed me a path that I thought I was already on .... but I wasn’t completely! I owe so much to his compassionate pragmatism and incredible generosity of spirit.

I have tried several therapists in the past 5 years and didn't feel like i was getting the help I needed. Luis has a very different approach which has been so so great for me. He is a humble and compassionate guide, as well as ultra professional. I would recommend him to anyone who is ready to dig deep.

Luis is not only a beautiful soul in his own right, but he is a highly skilled and intuitive therapist. After trying traditional therapy for over 15 years, I found little success with self realization, anxiety regulation, and finding deep insight. Luis' approach is the first that has allowed me to unlock true and lasting healing. He is both compassionate and honest and allows me to see the truth of a situation. I look forward to each session with Luis as a touchstone in my week. I recommend him to absolutely anyone. Five stars is not high enough of a rating---rather, all of the stars in the universe flicker in unison to applaud the healing that he brings to weary souls looking to find their path within this vast world.

The world is blessed to have your divine Spirit in it. Your Presence has helped me change a negative trajectory that I was on by the Light and profound gentleness that you stand in. It allowed me to forgive myself.

Luis is amazing in his knowledge of how the body works and heals with natural substances. I am on the right road now and feeling so much better. After 4 endoscopies and other tests he is the only one who was able to find me some relief and I am actually healing. Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge with me.

I first went to Luis with a serious, painful eye infection that completely distorted my face. After spending tons of money and seeing many doctors I finally saw Luis. In three days my eye was almost healed to the point where the MDs were taking notes on everything he had recommended me to do. I had no more pain and looked back like myself. I also went to Luis after a small surgery left me very ill from the anesthesia. He recommended herbs to me that were so magnificent that I actually felt better than I had before the surgery - it was life changing! That is the genius of Luis, not only does he cure you of whatever is wrong, but you end up feeling and looking so much better than you ever did. Luis is a true healer.
