Meet Luisa Nagore, LPC
I am Luisa Nagore, LPC, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arizona and a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist. I have been working with adults, women, LGBTIA+, and immigrants on multiple intersectionalities of mental health, emotional & cultural needs.
In my practice, I use an integrated approach to meet you where you stand. Trauma focus and CBT are at the forefront of my skills, but I also integrate other approaches including existentialism, feminist and cultural diversity (not limited to race and ethnicity).
My first language is Spanish as I was born in El Salvador. I am also fluent in French after living in France several years ago. I’ve lived in Tucson, AZ for 16 years, completed my BA in Psychology at the University of Arizona, and earned my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of Phoenix. I've been in private practice for 6 years and prior to this I've worked in clinical mental health community and private setting.
​
Building trust with strangers is a challenge biased by fear of stigma and the value of counseling services. I am a cis hetero wife and mother of two, I love learning about anything and everything, and believe trust is essential for any personal or working relationship.
