About Regina
Regina Ajunwa brings a practical, evidence-focused approach to therapy. She is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in New York with 15 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can name what feels hard and begin to make small changes.
Sessions focus on clear steps a person can try between meetings, and on building skills that reduce worry and overwhelm.
Background and approach
Regina helps clients untangle communication problems and the guilt or shame that often follows painful events. She also addresses panic attacks, social anxiety, isolation, and wounds from past trauma in straightforward, steady ways. Her work often emphasizes practical tools for managing intense emotion and repairing fractured interactions.
She explains techniques in plain language and checks in about what feels useful for each person. Regina accepts clients across time zones and offers several ways to meet. She aims to support people who want to feel more connected to themselves and others, and who are ready to take step-by-step action toward change.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Regina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that teach practical coping skills and emotional regulation. One common approach focuses on learning specific strategies to manage anxiety and panic, such as breathing and grounding practices, step-by-step exposure to feared situations, and short behavior experiments to reduce avoidance. These techniques aim to lower immediate distress and build confidence.Another direction emphasizes working through trauma and its effects by helping people process difficult memories and reduce their hold on daily life. This involves pacing the work, naming reactions, and developing tools to manage intense feelings when they arise. Both methods are explained in simple terms and adapted to each person’s pace.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Regina will talk with a client about goals, try techniques together, and adjust methods based on what helps most. She checks in regularly so the plan matches changing needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video works well for full conversations and exercises, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text are useful for quick check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family life while keeping care consistent.
