Background and approach

Her style is collaborative and respectful. She treats the client as the expert on their life and points out strengths to build on. Regina supports people through big life changes and the work of rebuilding after loss or abuse.

Regina uses several evidence-based approaches to shape sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for emotion regulation and reacting to stress.

Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation grounded in the person’s priorities and values. Practical concerns are part of the work. Regina can coach people who want clearer goals and gentler self-expectations.

She offers help for intimacy-related struggles and compassion fatigue, aiming for steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.

Online therapy using collaborative, skills-based approaches

Regina uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on individual goals and values, listening closely and adapting the pace to what feels most helpful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) gets practical about changing thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches clear skills for managing intense emotions and improving reactions to stress, useful for anger, relationship strain, and mood instability.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Regina will work with each person to decide which methods to try first, and she adjusts the plan as goals and needs shift. The emphasis is on collaboration - setting realistic steps, practicing new skills between sessions, and tracking what helps.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is preferred. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between appointments or fit brief sessions into a busy day.
