About Ramon
Ramon Reina is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Minnesota with 30 years of clinical experience. He trained at the University of Minnesota, earning a Master of Social Work (MSW). He works with adults on common struggles like depression, anxiety, relationship and family issues, and anger.
He helps people cope with divorce, grief, career stresses, and big life transitions. He also supports those dealing with addictions, intimacy concerns, and self-esteem problems. Ramon lists a range of related focuses such as attachment and fatherhood issues, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness.
Ramon uses approaches that emphasize real-life problem solving. He draws on Reality Therapy and Choice Theory to look at current behaviors and practical next steps. He also integrates attachment-based, psychodynamic, solution-focused, and trauma-informed perspectives as they fit the client's needs.
Sessions aim to clarify what a person wants to change, and then try concrete strategies to get there. Ramon places attention on relationships and how patterns from the past affect present behavior. Conversations are direct and practical, with room to work through grief, anger, or stressful situations.
He offers therapy in English and Spanish and practices in Minnesota. The practice notes that session arrangements use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Approaches in online sessions and what they do
Ramon uses Attachment-Based ideas and Client-Centered ways of working to focus on relationships and current experience. Attachment-based methods look at how early bonds shape reactions now and help people notice patterns that fuel anger or distance. Client-Centered work prioritizes the person’s perspective and goals, so the therapist follows what matters most to the client and helps them find their own solutions.He also draws on Psychodynamic perspectives to explore recurring patterns and unresolved issues from earlier relationships that keep showing up in adult life. That approach can be useful when anger or resentment feels connected to old hurts or abandonment concerns. Ramon treats choice of approach as a shared decision - he will help the client and therapist agree on methods based on needs, goals, and preferences.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove the need to be on camera depending on the chosen option. Licensed professionals can try different approaches and session rhythms until a workable plan fits the client’s everyday life.
