More about Regina

- LPC
I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Michigan and New Jersey. I have over 12 years experience in working with children, adults, families and individuals (including the LGBT community) seeking support on a variety of levels. A few of my preferred theoretical approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solutions Based Counseling. However, I have found that tailoring a treatment plan to the specific needs and concerns of each person is important for progress.
I have experience in working with clients in the areas of anxiety, depression, transitional life challenges, family systems and relational concepts. I look forward to working with you and appreciate and respect your decision to pursue and engage in this counseling experience!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I always feel better after talking to Regina
I've been working with Regina for a few years now, and I am so lucky to have her as a therapist. She is kind, compassionate, understanding, and truly listens to me. She has helped me navigate a variety of personal and professional challenges during our time together, and I am a better version of myself from her guidance.
Regina is such a thoughtful and patient listener, I always appreciate her insight in anything I bring to her. She’s helping me through so much between family, relationship, and work situations. I feel like I’ve already gained so much mental and emotional strength from being able to talk to her. She always offers practical advice and tips, and is willing to meet me where I’m at to help me move forward. I highly recommend her expertise!
Regina is everything a good therapist is supposed to be. She changes lives every day.
Talking to Regina is easy, even when the subject is difficult. She listens and has helpful feedback to help navigate issues in my life. Thanks Regina!
Regina is a great therapist. She listens intently and has offered many helpful insights. She is also respectful and responsive.
Regina was my therapist for about 2 years, and she was absolutely phenomenal. The only reason I stopped was because she helped get me to a place where I felt I could use the tools I'd learned in therapy on my own. If I do decide I need to jump back in, I'd go right back to Regina. She is a wonderful, nonjudgmental listener - she knows how to let you work out the thoughts on your own and also chime in with reflections when necessary. She is very diligent with notes and remembers lots of details from our sessions, so that when we reflect back on them at later dates, she can build on the context. I always leave the sessions feeling validated, while also having extra guidance to push me to develop myself and my emotions further. She's also great at noting specific topics that come up from our sessions and sharing extra worksheets/readings afterward - for example, she proactively shared guidance on grieving when we discussed the passing of my grandparents. I've always felt so comfortable sharing my feelings with Regina - whether it's feelings of anger, anxiety, or just a need to cry - and she always makes me feel empowered to handle how I am feeling. It's amazing that she is able to do so all through a computer screen. I could not recommend Regina more highly. If you are like me and struggle with things like anxiety, family relationships, setting boundaries, etc., she will help you get to a much better place if you're willing to put in the work.
Regina is very patient and a great listener. I love that she answers my questions and provides resources to help me with my Anxiety. I enjoy the calmness of speaking with her and how she ensures that I understand each word she speaks. She is awesome!!
She is very attentive and has helped me recognize myself and heal myself.
Excellent therapist
I’m glad to have the opportunity to work with Regina again. My anxiety has been elevating again and I want to try and reduce it with her help and guidance.
Regina is a great listener well spoken a great professional. She lets you speak, she understands your priorities has great questions to make you think in a different perspective. She takes her time with you doesnt Interrupt you will definitely recommend!
Regina has been a saving grace through the most unstable part of my life. I can feel genuine friendship and concern for my well-being during our sessions; I have recommended her to friends in need of a true support! Regina is beautifully open-minded and an amazing listener. Her ability to help me step back and see things from other angles as been life changing. I'm so grateful for her support.
She’s wonderful! Always makes me feel heard and very accommodating. Was super nervous to start this route but she’s made me feel more and more comfortable every step of the way
Regina has helped me work through a difficult time over the past few months and has been integral to my growth. She is extremely professional, timely, thoughtful, and helpful. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking therapy.
Great listener and keeps it real!
Regina is so easy to talk to! She is a fantastic listener and asks very insightful questions.
Regina is an incredibly professional, unbiased, and supportive therapist. It has taken me a long time and several therapists to find one like her. I am grateful.
Kind and thoughtful, Regina listens well and analyzes well. Ready to dissect the issue of the day and make suggestions for improvement.
I started seeing Regina during the pandemic, and she has been such a great help to me as I've been processing everything the last year has thrown at me. I had never tried counseling or therapy before, but our sessions have been incredibly helpful, and I am very grateful for her kindness and her ability to actively listen and follow up with relevant questions, both immediately and sometimes several weeks later. I feel very supported by her.
Regina truly cares and it is clear in her interactions. Thank you!
Regina has been so helpful. She is kind and knowledgeable, yet is able to be direct. I’ve been able to get deeper insight into my life and pull from my strengths.
After the unexpected loss of my father, a friend of mine suggested BetterHelp. Regina has been a key component in my grief recovery. With her guidance, I now feel like I have the tools I need to get through this on my own. Thank you for everything.
I've been using BetterHelp with Regina for almost a month now and it's been a great start. She is an excellent conversation facilitator with a balance of listening and asking questions while keeping us focused on my immediate needs. The level of professionalism and caliber of communication skills she exudes are impressive and appreciated.
Regina is the best therapist I’ve ever had. An incredibly empathetic and devoted listener, she also consistently provides therapeutic counsel I can actually apply to my life to improve it. I have only worked with her a few months and her work has helped me heal SO MUCH from my trauma. She’s also especially great with family issues and relationship dynamics. So glad I’m working with her.
Regina has been very helpful. She makes me feel like she is rooting for me and like I have someone "in my corner".
I’ve only had two sessions with Regina but the work I’ve done in between or before our sessions has been a huge help with my anxiety. The resources she’s provided have been very helpful and I try to incorporate them in my daily life when possible.
Great counselor. She's accommodative and smart. She is open and honest with me.
Regina is very patient and knowledgeable. She is always willing to talk through any concerns that I have and helps me reflect on a lot of what is going on both around me, and how I respond to it all. I would definitely recommend Regina to anyone. Thanks for being awesome! -Sammy
I have now had three live session with Regina, and I intend to continue for the long haul. I'm at a point in life where I am ready to overcome a few challenges life has tossed my way. Regina listens, as evident by her follow up questions each week. I have 100% confidence and am very comfortable talking with her. She shares resources, and is quick to respond to messages, as well. Totally recommend her!
She has mad it easyer for me to talk about thing i don't like talking about.
Excellent and empathetic listener and seeks solutions
She has been a tremendous help. She is a great listener and very respectful with my concerns. She cares about what is important to me and shares great information with me.
I have only been using BetterHelp for the past 2 weeks and I’m already noticing myself being less anxious, it’s a good feeling knowing you’re not missing an appointment and you’re time is valued. Regina always responds in a timely manner and always makes my opinion or issues feel important, and that’s what means the most to me. She gives me tools to work on and she doesn’t pry asking why she hasn’t seen me working on them.
Wow! What a great listener. Non-bias advice. I feel so much better after a session with Regina. She really takes the time to listen. And even after the session, if she finds more helpful information she shares it right away!
