About Regina
Regina Ambs is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with 16 years of experience. She works with adults facing relationship strain, grief, trauma and abuse, anxiety, stress, and life changes. She also supports people dealing with parenting concerns, sleep problems, career questions, and LGBT issues.
Regina uses straightforward, person-focused methods to help people clarify what matters next. She listens for patterns in relationships and family history. From there she helps people try new ways of communicating and managing strong emotions.
Her practice draws on several approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Mindfulness-based techniques are offered to reduce reactivity and improve focus. Solution-focused strategies help set achievable short-term goals when someone wants practical change fast.
Regina is also experienced in trauma-focused work, helping people process past harm and reduce its hold on daily life. She addresses issues like abandonment, attachment, adoption and foster care, and blended family stress. She helps those caring for others manage compassion fatigue and caregiver strain.
In sessions she pays attention to how family of origin and communication patterns affect current choices. People can expect clear, step-by-step suggestions as well as space to reflect. To begin, clients use the site's matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Regina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify patterns of thinking that fuel anxiety and stress, and to try new behaviors that can reduce those problems. She pairs that with Mindfulness Therapy techniques to help reduce reactivity, increase moment-to-moment awareness, and improve sleep and stress management.She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy when past harm affects current functioning. That work focuses on processing difficult memories and developing practical coping skills to reduce distress in daily life. Choosing a method is collaborative - she will discuss options and adjust treatment as needs and goals become clearer.
