About Regina
Regina Ajunwa is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 15 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Regina also addresses related issues such as communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and social anxiety. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.
Regina uses straightforward conversation to help people name and understand what’s causing their distress. She encourages honest talk about difficult feelings and helps people notice patterns that keep problems repeating. In sessions she listens, asks practical questions, and helps people try different ways of responding to old triggers.
Her approach emphasizes making room for whatever a person brings into the room. That can mean talking through a painful memory, practicing ways to manage panic, or working on clearer communication in a close relationship. She helps people examine guilt and shame without judging the feeling or the person.
Regina draws on techniques from evidence-based therapeutic methods to address symptoms and everyday struggles. She will work with each person to set clear goals and try steps that feel doable. The focus is on small, steady changes rather than quick fixes.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session. Payment varies by location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often used to address anxiety and trauma include cognitive approaches and exposure-based strategies. Cognitive approaches help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try alternative ways of thinking, which can reduce anxious reactions and shame-driven self-judgment. Exposure-based strategies involve gradual, manageable steps toward feared memories or situations so they provoke less distress over time and reduce avoidance.Another useful method focuses on skills for managing intense emotions and panic. That work teaches short, practical tools to steady breathing, ground attention, and interrupt automatic reactions. Those skills are intended for use between sessions as well as during them.
Choosing the right mix of techniques is part of the collaborative work. The therapist will help figure out which approaches fit a person's goals and preferences and will adjust methods as progress and needs become clearer.
