About Regina
Regina Simon is an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker in Michigan with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are trying to manage anger, repair strained relationships, or handle stress tied to parenting and intimacy. She also supports people facing LGBTQ+ concerns and mood challenges.
Regina uses direct, practical conversation to help people notice patterns that fuel frustration and resentment. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and actions that keep anger cycling. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help clarify values and choose actions that feel more constructive.
Attachment-Based Therapy informs how she talks about long-term patterns in relationships and the ways early experiences shape reactions now. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when people need concrete tools for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Client-Centered Therapy principles guide the pace of work, with the client’s concerns steering each session.
Sessions focus on what someone can do between meetings as much as what happens in them. Regina talks through communication tactics, boundaries, and small behavior changes that reduce explosive moments. She also addresses related issues like shame, guilt, impulsivity, and isolation when they arise.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She helps people break down problems into manageable steps. For someone worried about snapping at loved ones or feeling stuck in simmering anger, she offers clear strategies and steady clinical experience.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in remote sessions
Regina commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that align with those values, which can reduce reactive behavior over time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep anger active and practicing different responses to break those cycles.She also brings Attachment-Based ideas into conversations about relationship patterns and how past experiences shape current reactions. Those discussions can help people understand why certain situations trigger intense responses and how to shift interaction patterns with others. Finding the best approach is collaborative - she will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level.
