About May

May Reinert is a licensed clinician who emphasizes practical, evidence-informed approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients shift unhelpful thinking and develop coping skills.

Background and approach

With seven years of professional experience, she draws on a blend of client-centered and mindfulness-influenced methods to create a collaborative environment that supports growth. Her work often focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, motivation, and career concerns, alongside relationship and intimacy-related issues.

She aims to cultivate a nonjudgmental space where people can explore feelings and thoughts openly and safely. May also offers support for grief, trauma and abuse, sleeping difficulties, parenting challenges, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue, as well as a broad range of additional areas such as adoption and foster care, blended family issues, fertility concerns, and isolation.

Licensed as an LMHC and an LPCC, she practices from Florida while integrating practical strategies like DBT-informed skills and motivational interviewing when helpful. May frames therapy as a partnership, guiding clients through the steps they choose to take toward clearer priorities and greater resilience.

How CBT and Client-Centered Care Translate Online

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that contribute to distress and developing practical skills to shift those patterns; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep difficulties by teaching concrete coping strategies and behavioral experiments. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, creating a supportive space where a person's own goals and values guide the work and growth. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes skills-based training in emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense emotions, relationship challenges, and managing overwhelm.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and May works collaboratively with clients to determine what methods best align with their needs, preferences, and goals. She tailors the blend of techniques over time so the plan reflects what is most helpful for each person.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility by allowing sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, so people can engage in sessions from different locations and schedules. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access skill coaching between appointments, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with a licensed professional.
