About Regina

Regina Garner is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, and relationship strains. She approaches sessions with patience and plain talk. Her goal is to make the first step feel doable for someone who is worried or unsure.

Regina uses a client-centered style that keeps the person’s goals first. She asks practical questions and listens closely so each session has a clear focus. When useful, she offers strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing intense feelings and improving emotional regulation. Mindfulness practices are offered to build attention and calm in daily life. Regina integrates Jungian ideas when exploring personal meaning or recurring patterns.

With 25 years as an LPC in Texas, she combines long experience and straightforward guidance. People come to address grief, parenting strain, career stress, trauma, and a wide range of life transitions. She also supports concerns like ADHD, compassion fatigue, and caregiving stress.

Sessions focus on what can change now - clearer communication, practical coping skills, and small habit shifts. Regina works with each person to set goals and track progress in ways that fit their life. Starting therapy is framed as a series of manageable steps rather than a single big jump.

How her approaches translate to online work

Regina frequently blends client-centered care with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Client-centered work means the session is guided by the person’s goals and concerns, with the therapist listening and reflecting to help clarify next steps. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. DBT supplies concrete tools for managing strong emotions and improving coping and communication skills.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Regina will talk with each person about their needs and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative planning helps match techniques to real-life goals, such as reducing panic, improving sleep, or handling family conflict.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow brief check-ins between appointments, and remove travel time. It also allows practicing skills in the settings where problems actually occur, which can help turn learning into everyday habits.
