Regina Phelps

Regina Phelps is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. She has nine years as a licensed therapist and a long background in social services before that, so she brings steady clinical experience to common everyday struggles.

She prefers to begin by meeting each person where they are. Sessions focus on practical steps rather than labels. Regina uses straightforward conversation to help people sort priorities, set small goals, and track real change over time.

Her work touches on concerns many people bring: relationships, parenting, addiction, grief, trauma, anger, self-esteem, career stress, and major life changes. She also supports people coping with caregiver stress, codependency issues, and challenges related to military or veteran experience.

Regina blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and other approaches as needed. That mix allows her to offer short-term goal work and deeper exploration when it helps. She aims for clear plans clients can try between sessions.

People who prefer a practical, collaborative style may find this approach useful. Regina describes therapy as a partnership where plans are adjusted to fit each person’s needs. To begin, prospective clients use the site process to match and schedule according to availability.

Her training includes a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from California State University, Fresno, and licensure as an LMFT in California. She also has experience running individual, couples, and group work in residential and outpatient settings.

How Regina’s Approaches Work Online

Regina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in practical ways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce distress and improve relationships. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps and builds on what is already working for a person to move toward clear goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Regina will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. The process is collaborative and paced to the client’s needs and preferences.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific online formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to keep momentum between sessions by using tools and homework that suit everyday routines. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to remote work so sessions focus on practical steps and progress that carry into daily life.
