Regina Hughes

Regina Hughes is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 23 years of experience. She has worked in inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings and with people facing a wide range of concerns. Regina helps clients who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, substance issues, relationship struggles, and ADHD among other challenges.

She describes her style as open, warm, and nonjudgmental. Sessions are client-centered so people feel heard and respected. Regina aims to create a calm space where a person can begin to sort out what matters and take practical steps forward.

Her background includes work with adults, teens, and families, and with clients receiving special education services. That experience has involved academic and behavioral concerns, autism, and ADHD as part of a broader clinical practice. She has also supported people after physical trauma and emotional abuse.

Regina uses a mix of approaches and adapts a plan to each person's needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered methods to address thoughts, feelings, and relationships. The focus is on skills, clarity, and steady progress.

People who reach out are met with practical tools and straightforward conversation. Regina encourages small, achievable steps and helps clients build coping strategies for everyday life. She supports those wanting to improve communication, manage mood symptoms, or work through grief and life changes.

Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Regina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT focuses on small experiments and practical skills that can reduce anxiety, improve mood, and address daily problems.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify values and take committed action even when uncomfortable feelings remain. ACT is useful for coping with stress, chronic worry, and life transitions by teaching acceptance and goal-oriented action.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. Sessions can mix skills practice, emotional reflection, and real-life planning so the plan changes as progress is made.

Other practical benefits include more flexible scheduling, the option to use shorter check-ins when needed, and the ability to work on skills between meetings.
