About Reggie

Reggie Thirus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with six years of direct counseling experience and over a decade in helping roles. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, addiction concerns, grief, identity and intimacy questions, parenting strain, career uncertainty, ADHD, and life changes. Reggie also lists work around LGBT issues, trauma and abuse, bipolar concerns, and a range of related topics such as abandonment, communication problems, and gender dysphoria.

Reggie uses a client-centered foundation in sessions. That means conversations focus on what matters most to the person in front of him. He also draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to look at thought patterns and psychodynamic ideas to notice how past experiences shape current feelings and choices.

Sessions are practical and conversational. He helps people set concrete goals and tests small changes to see what helps. Therapy can include talking about relationships, practicing different ways to respond to stress, or working through grief and identity questions at a steady pace.

Reggie emphasizes inclusive work and respect for different backgrounds and identities. He aims to help people clarify values, improve communication, and handle transitions such as career shifts, recovery from addiction, or changes in family roles.

Outside of practice he enjoys exercise, walking, food, and music. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site's booking steps to schedule a first appointment.

How his approaches shape online sessions

Reggie works with client-centered methods that prioritize the client's concerns and goals, keeping conversation focused on what the person wants to change. Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to spot and test thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going, which can be useful for anxiety, mood, and coping skills. Psychodynamic work looks at how past relationships and experiences influence current feelings and choices to help people see recurring patterns.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. He will talk with each person about their goals, try different ways of working, and adjust based on what fits the client's needs and preferences. That process helps decide whether more skill-focused work or deeper exploration is most helpful.

The original biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and avoid travel time. It also makes it possible to keep therapy going during relocations or changes in work schedule. Licensed professionals can tailor pacing and focus to practical everyday demands while working toward the client's goals.
