Reggie Thirus

Reggie Thirus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin who helps people facing anger, stress, anxiety, and relationship strain. He focuses on practical steps people can use to feel steadier and make clearer decisions when emotions run high. Reggie aims to create an empathic space where clients set goals that matter to them.

His work blends client-centered care, cognitive approaches, and psychodynamic ideas to match each person's needs. Sessions often look at current patterns, what triggers strong reactions, and small changes that reduce conflict and impulsive behavior. He uses clear, direct conversation and collaborative goal-setting rather than long lectures.

Reggie brings six years of counseling experience as an LPC and a background of more than a decade in helping roles. That mix informs a practical style that values both short-term problem solving and understanding longer-term patterns. He also names LGBT, addiction, trauma, grief, parenting, ADHD, bipolar, and intimacy as areas he commonly addresses.

Outside of work he enjoys exercise, walking, food, and music. These interests shape a down-to-earth approach in sessions that keeps the focus on what helps clients in daily life. If someone wants straightforward support for anger or related struggles, he works with them to find realistic, steady ways forward.

How these approaches work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. The therapist reflects feelings, clarifies goals, and supports the client in choosing next steps. This approach helps when someone needs understanding and a nonjudgmental space to sort emotions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with specific exercises. It helps people recognize triggers, test new responses, and practice skills that reduce anger and anxiety in daily life.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat over time and where strong feelings come from. It can be useful for understanding why certain situations provoke intense reactions and for making longer-term changes.

Finding the right mix is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to decide which approach or combination fits their goals, symptoms, and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted as progress is made and new needs appear.

Online therapy can make regular work on anger and related issues easier to fit into life. Confirm the session formats available before booking, as options are not listed here. People often find online sessions helpful for keeping consistent appointments, cutting travel time, and scheduling shorter check-ins when needed.
