About Regina

Regina Garner is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas who brings 25 years of clinical experience to people managing relationship strain, family conflict, grief, mood concerns, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She emphasizes practical skills for coping with stress, anxiety, trauma, and challenges such as parenting, intimacy issues, and work-related concerns while also addressing areas like self-esteem, motivation, and compassion fatigue. Regina's practice includes attention to complex situations such as bipolar mood patterns, caregiving stress, blended family dynamics, and end-of-life or hospice-related needs.

Her style centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings and develop tools that fit their life. Regina draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered and mindfulness-informed techniques, and she also integrates elements from DBT and Jungian ideas when useful.

She frames therapeutic work as collaborative and goal-oriented, supporting clients who want clearer communication, healthier boundaries, improved coping strategies, and a renewed sense of direction. Regina works with English-speaking clients in Texas and accepts international clients.

Her approach pairs long experience with a practical, compassionate focus on helping people make meaningful change in everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care



Regina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, mood swings, and everyday stressors. CBT focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors that contribute to distress and is useful for problem-solving and improving daily functioning.

She also draws from client-centered therapy, which prioritizes listening, empathy, and the client's own goals. This style supports people who want a collaborative, respectful space to explore feelings, relationships, and life transitions while building self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is an exploratory process that happens together. Regina works with each person to clarify needs and preferences, adapting methods over time so therapy remains aligned with goals and circumstances. The emphasis is on collaboration and practical progress rather than imposing a single method.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from Texas or abroad while working with a licensed professional.
