Luis Ocampo
Hola! My name is Luis, and I’m a third-year Psy.D. student in Clinical Psychology at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Growing up as a Queer Latino, I wrestled with questions about my identity and place in the world—questions that often went unanswered. Through my own healing journey, I discovered the transformative power of exploring one’s story. This realization inspired me to help others uncover the hidden treasures within themselves—gifts that are often overlooked in the search for belonging and meaning. This passion led me to pursue the study of psychology, equipping me with the tools to support others on their paths toward healing and self-discovery.
My Philosophy
I view therapy as a sacred space where you can share your story without fear of judgment or discrimination—a place to reconnect with your authentic self and heal the wounds life may have left behind. In this space, you’re in the driver’s seat, guiding the journey at your own pace and direction. As your co-pilot, I’m here to support, encourage, and help you navigate. Together, we’ll take an integrative approach: exploring early experiences, untangling the threads of past and current relationships, building awareness through mindfulness, developing coping skills for managing overwhelming emotions, and discovering new ways of thinking about yourself. I’d be truly honored to walk alongside you on this journey. It may be uncomfortable at times, but every step is meaningful—and absolutely worth it.
