About Eguenel
Eguenel Louis is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who focuses on helping people change patterns that keep them stuck. He uses straightforward, goal-oriented work to tackle issues such as stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and depression. He speaks English, French, and Haitian Creole and aims to make conversations clear and approachable.
His sessions begin with listening to what matters most to each person. He helps clients name unhelpful beliefs and habits, then maps out small, practical steps to shift them.
Background and approach
Many clients come for help with sleeping, anger, self-esteem, career stress, or major life changes like loss or separation. Louis blends a few methods to fit the person in front of him. He commonly draws on Narrative Therapy to reframe personal stories, Client-Centered Therapy to build a trusting relationship, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change thoughts and behaviors.
He also uses Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques when a focused plan helps move things forward. With 12 years of experience, he has worked with people facing co-occurring mental health and substance use challenges. He emphasizes practical coping skills aimed at day-to-day life, including relapse prevention strategies for those addressing substance concerns.
He describes his work as collaborative and hopeful. Louis brings a values-driven perspective to sessions and sometimes integrates spiritual language when clients request it. He invites people to identify realistic goals and to try small experiments between sessions that build momentum over time.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how he works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Eguenel directly how he uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How narrative and practical approaches fit online therapy
Online sessions with this therapist often use Narrative Therapy to help people reshape the stories they tell about themselves. Narrative work focuses on identifying themes in a person's life story and then creating alternative ways of understanding challenges and strengths. Client-Centered Therapy is also used to build a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where clients set the pace and goals for their work.He frequently pairs these with Cognitive Behavioral techniques to turn new insights into concrete changes in thinking and behavior. That mix can help with anxiety, depression, addiction recovery, sleep problems, and everyday coping. He treats finding the right approach as a shared task and will work with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and goals.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is well suited to deeper conversations and real-time feedback, phone calls can be used when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can support short check-ins or written reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep progress moving forward.
