About Regina

Regina Simon is a Michigan-licensed LMSW with 20 years of experience helping people facing relationship stress, parenting challenges, midlife transition, and mood concerns. She aims to make the first steps feel manageable and affirms the courage it takes to seek help.

Regina centers sessions on respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She listens first to understand each person’s situation. Then she tailors conversations and a plan to what matters most to the client, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

Her work addresses common struggles like intimacy issues, communication breakdowns, anger, and feelings of isolation or shame. She also supports people navigating identity-related concerns, life purpose questions, and the practical strains of caregiving or parenting.

In sessions she mixes practical skills with exploration of patterns that get in the way. That can include gentle reflection on attachment and relational history, learning new coping strategies for mood and impulsivity, and practicing clearer ways to ask for needs. Regina helps people try different ways of responding to old problems.

People who prefer a collaborative, straightforward approach often find her style useful. She invites clients to set goals and to check in about progress. This keeps work focused and adaptable as needs change.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking small, meaningful actions toward them while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with life purpose questions, midlife transitions, and mood struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and communication. It helps people notice patterns in closeness and distance and practice different ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental listening stance; the therapist follows the client’s lead and helps them find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Regina works collaboratively to decide which methods to try based on a person’s concerns, goals, and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the plan so the work stays relevant and practical.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people work from a quieter spot or avoid needing to be on camera if that helps them focus. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, attachment work, and client-centered methods to remote sessions to keep the work goal-oriented and collaborative.
