About Regina

Regina Garner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 25 years of experience guiding people through relationship and family difficulties, grief, anxiety, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

She draws on a range of therapeutic tools to support clients who are managing stress, trauma, parenting challenges, career concerns, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, and issues around intimacy, self-esteem, and motivation. Regina emphasizes creating an atmosphere where clients can explore thoughts and emotions openly and without judgment.

Her practice integrates several evidence-informed methods, including Internal Family Systems, client-centered approaches, CBT, DBT, and Jungian ideas, adapting interventions to fit each person's situation and goals. She also attends to related concerns such as caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, codependency, communication and control problems, end-of-life and hospice matters, and forgiveness work.

Regina accepts international clients and offers multiple session formats to accommodate different schedules and needs, aiming to meet people where they are and help them move toward greater well-being.

Integrating therapeutic approaches for online healing

Regina often uses Internal Family Systems to help clients notice and relate to different inner parts rather than being overwhelmed by a single feeling; this method can be useful for addressing trauma responses, internal conflict, and persistent self-critical thoughts. She also applies client-centered therapy principles that prioritize empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and grounded while exploring their concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another frequent tool in her work, offering concrete strategies to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Regina works with each person to assess their needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors interventions that fit the pace and focus the client prefers. Over time the plan can be adjusted based on what proves most helpful in sessions.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or geographic distance. These formats allow clients to connect with a licensed professional from different locations and to continue work between live sessions through messaging when that supports the therapy goals.
