About Regina

Regina Ambs is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with 16 years of experience. She focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, stress and anxiety, and blended family issues among other areas. Regina works with adults who are facing big changes or ongoing interpersonal strains.

She uses clear, practical conversation to sort problems into steps that feel doable. Sessions often focus on improving communication, managing strong emotions, and building routines that reduce daily stress. Regina draws on approaches such as client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice patterns and try different responses.

When trauma or loss is part of the picture, she brings trauma-focused methods and mindfulness skills to help people manage flashbacks, intense feelings, or sleeplessness. Solution-focused ideas are used to identify small changes that lead to relief. Regina aims to help people build steady coping tools rather than only talk about problems.

Her style is collaborative and practical. She helps clients set concrete goals, track progress, and adjust strategies when needed. Sessions include skill practice, feedback, and short-term planning as appropriate.

Regina also supports people dealing with related issues such as parenting strain, caregiver stress, attachment concerns, body image, and career stress. She asks about current routines and responsibilities so recommendations fit day-to-day life. To begin, people choose an online therapy option, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify their priorities and feel heard while deciding practical next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to present-moment experience and attention skills to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and stress management.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Regina will discuss what feels most helpful based on your goals, symptoms, and daily responsibilities. Together you can try an approach for a few sessions and adjust if another method fits better.

Confirm current session formats before booking, since the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-in meetings when needed, and remove travel time. They can also let people practice skills in real-life settings and bring notes or resources into the conversation. Licensed professionals adapt methods like CBT and mindfulness so the practical work translates across online sessions.
