Regina has a wonderful demeanor that makes it easy to tell her important details. She is always ready with a strategy for working through difficult issues. I appreciate how truly human she comes across— no stuffiness or pressure from her. I’m very glad to be working with her.

My counseling sessions have been very goal-focused and helped me get out of a loop with my reactions to different life stressors. After a couple of sessions, it was clear how I needed to proceed to gain the clarity to make new choices, solve a problem and move forward..getting unstuck! I would highly recommend counseling in the comfort of your own home and on your own schedule.

I have only had one session but I immediately felt very comfortable with Regina. She is very understanding and I look forward to speaking with her again

She listens and processes and then proceeds to offer her help. Free of judgment and without doom and gloom but with an eye toward improving quality of my relationships. I highly recommend her
