About Regina
Regina Hood brings a practical, skills-focused approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while drawing on client-centered and dialectical methods to support people through emotional and life challenges.
Background and approach
With LPC and LCMHC credentials and nearly two decades of professional experience, she helps clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns, build coping skills, and strengthen personal resources when facing stress, anxiety, mood shifts, or trauma-related concerns. She works collaboratively, centering each person's perspective and emphasizing strengths as the foundation for change.
Regina addresses a wide range of concerns including relationship and family difficulties, grief, intimacy struggles, sleep problems, parenting and anger management, as well as obsessive-compulsive symptoms and phobias. Her approach combines structured interventions with empathetic listening to create a practical plan tailored to each client.
Regina practices in Mississippi and accepts international clients in English. Her goal is to guide clients through steps toward healthier routines, improved emotional regulation, and clearer problem-solving so they can move toward more satisfying daily life and relationships.
Integrating evidence-based approaches in online care
Regina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and goal-oriented work; this approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which prioritizes the client's perspective by offering empathic listening and support to build confidence and self-directed growth. When emotional regulation or intense distress is present, elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy can be included to teach skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Choosing the right approach is collaborative and often evolves over time. Regina partners with each client to explore which techniques fit their goals and preferences, adjusting the mix of structured skill work and supportive therapy as progress and needs change.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it simpler to fit sessions into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care across locations. These formats provide flexible access to evidence-informed strategies and regular support, helping clients apply new skills between sessions and stay connected with their therapist regardless of geographic constraints.
