About me

Hi I'm Regina Do you know that everyone feels overwhelmed; especially now. Balancing family, work demands, and life is challenging. Everyone experiences these things differently and may need some reminding of their own strengths. I am a highly trained therapist with many years of experience helping clients realize their own potential. My approach is filtered through a culturally rich and ethnically diverse lens. I'm gentle, empathic and meet my clients where they are at. Building upon past coping mechanisms will enable you to develop and find more effective ways of managing life stressors. Look, I get that everyone has some level of depression and anxiety. There are many interventions we can use from the traditional methods such as cognitive behavioral and solution-focused to the latest smart phone apps. I recognize that it will be hard work! But, through your hard work will be where true success comes.

She has truly helped me change my life around for the better. I’ve felt seeing, I’ve grown, and I see life in a different light. She’s taught me to see my blessings/wins and how to cope with my downs. Im so thankfully and happy to have her as my therapist.

Regina, After these last few sessions, I’ve felt so renewed, empowered, and more ready than ever to get my life back on track. Your guidance has truly been life-giving. I honestly can’t imagine talking to any other therapist—you just get it. Thank you for helping me find my strength again.
