Hi! I'm glad you are here. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with several years of experience in a variety of settings. I enjoy working with all ages and can help with most things, especially anxiety, depression, and life stress. You will be seen, valued, and understood.

I work with individuals who feel overwhelmed by the weight of responsibility and emotions they’ve been holding alone, some for a long time. They are struggling with anxiety, ADHD, perfectionism, relationship stress, or trauma that keep showing up in current life in ways they don’t fully understand. They want to feel calmer, more grounded, and more connected to themselves — not constantly reacting from fear, guilt, or survival mode. Their goal isn’t just to “cope,” but to actually heal and create a life that feels peaceful, balanced,and aligned with who they are. They want clarity — to understand what’s happening inside them and why.

Hey y'all! I'm Regina.

If you've spent years wondering why life feels harder than it should, you're not alone. Many of the adults I work with are successful on the outside but privately struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, unhealthy relationship patterns, people-pleasing, or the lingering effects of growing up in dysfunctional family patterns.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with nearly 20 years of clinical experience, I believe lasting change happens when we understand not only what we're struggling with, but why. Together we'll identify the patterns that have been holding you back, build practical tools for today, and create healthier ways of thinking, relating, and living.

Many of the people I work with have spent years surviving. My goal is to help them begin living intentionally instead.

I am a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 13 years of healthcare experience. I earned my Family Nurse Practitioner degree from South University and completed my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner training through Wilkes University.

My passion is helping people understand the "why" behind their symptoms, not just treating them. While I provide evidence-based psychiatric care, I also specialize in taking a deeper look at the factors that may be contributing to mental health concerns. My background in both primary care and psychiatry allows me to recognize the strong connection between the brain and body and approach care from a more comprehensive perspective.

I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, stress, and life transitions. In addition to traditional psychiatric treatment, I have a special interest in integrative and root-cause psychiatry. Together, we may explore how sleep, nutrition, gut health, hormones, inflammation, physical health, chronic stress, and lifestyle factors can influence emotional well-being and overall functioning.

I believe that meaningful change often happens when we move beyond symptom management alone and develop a deeper understanding of what may be driving those symptoms. My goal is to help clients gain insight into their health, identify opportunities for healing and growth, and create a personalized treatment plan that supports both symptom relief and long-term wellness.

I strive to provide compassionate, collaborative care in a supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to take an active role in their mental health journey.
