Samantha Taylor, CPC-Intern

 Karen Lau grew up in Arcadia, California and moved to Ohio to attend Kent State University, where she earned a B.S. in Video and Film Programming. She was a member of Delta Gamma Sorority and was the Director of the Delta Gamma Philanthropy, Service for Sight, which assisted her to cultivate leadership skills, gain a sense of social identity and become a valuable team player. After she graduated, she moved to Las Vegas to earn a master’s degree in Counseling psychology from Capella University. During this time, she realized her compassionate nature and empathy for individuals was critical for her in becoming an effective therapist.

Karen is currently a clinical professional counselor dedicated to improving the quality of life for all levels of diversified clients. She has a passion for dissecting situations to determine the root-cause of problems, while her level of knowledge and working collaboratively with people has helped her positively reinforce others to do the best they can, without her being biased. She is dedicated to improving the quality of life and level of service for clients and is skilled at working with high pressure environments. She has worked in a variety of areas, such as helping individuals deal with anxiety, depression, grief, low-self-esteem, stress, and suicidal impulses, while she has worked in several mental health agencies in the Las Vegas area.

Karen is continually recognized for going above and beyond the call of duty to ensure clients realize and reach their highest potential. She is enthusiastic about creating workable solutions to maximize an individual’s well-being and she thrives with a challenge, while delivering beneficial results to her clients. Her motto is “I would like to provide support for others; however, I cannot help someone who does not want to help themselves. Basically, I cannot want more for someone, than they want for themselves. Therefore, if someone wants something bad enough, they will achieve the results.”

For Tiana Louis, becoming a therapist is deeply personal. Her own experience with therapy began in childhood after being bullied and continued through some of life's most painful seasons. At 19, Tiana lost her mother to terminal cancer while also navigating her first significant heartbreak. Experiencing grief, loss, and healing firsthand showed her just how powerful therapy can be. She knows what it feels like to sit on the other side of the room and believes the right support, tools, and therapeutic relationship can help make even the heaviest seasons of life feel more manageable.

Tiana has worked in the mental health field since 2009 and has experience with preteens, teens, adults, and families from diverse backgrounds. Her clinical interests include trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, self-esteem, identity exploration, neurodiversity, substance use, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. She has also worked extensively with LGBTQIA+ clients, individuals involved with the state and federal court systems, and families involved with Child and Family Services.

Tiana takes a holistic, trauma-informed approach to therapy, paying attention to the connection between the mind, body, and spirit rather than focusing only on symptoms. She has completed a three-year certification training program in Integrative Body Psychotherapy and incorporates EMDR, Integrative Body Psychotherapy, and CBT into her work. She especially enjoys working with teens, young adults, women, and professionals who may appear to be holding everything together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, or exhausted underneath.

Tiana's style is compassionate, grounded, genuine, and nonjudgmental. She does not believe therapy should come with someone else's agenda for your life. Instead, she sees clients as the directors of their own lives and her role as helping them better understand themselves, identify what is getting in the way, and discover the tools and path that feel right for them. Together, she and her clients create meaningful goals, explore patterns that may no longer be serving them, and adjust the process based on what actually works.

Tiana understands that beginning therapy can feel vulnerable. You do not have to arrive knowing exactly what is wrong, what you need, or how to fix it. Her hope is to create a space where you can feel safe, seen, and fully yourself while discovering the rhythm and approach that helps the weight begin to lift. Tiana continues to value therapy in her own life and brings that respect for the therapeutic process into the work she does with others. If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for something to change, she would be honored to walk alongside you.
