About Reggie

Reggie Thirus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and other life challenges. He focuses on practical steps that can ease daily strain and improve relationships. Reggie also includes concerns such as aging and geriatric issues among his focus areas. He works with people around identity, intimacy, parenting pressures, and career transitions.

Reggie uses a straightforward, empathic approach in sessions. He listens first to understand what matters most, then helps people set clear, realistic goals. He blends client-centered work with cognitive and psychodynamic ideas to match methods to each person’s needs. That can mean practicing new thinking patterns, looking at past influences, or trying different ways to handle conflict.

His counseling style aims to be inclusive and nonjudgmental. Sessions tend to focus on small, doable changes that add up over time. Reggie encourages people to track progress and adjust goals as life shifts.

Reggie holds an LPC in Wisconsin and brings six years of counseling experience to his practice. He draws on more than a decade in helping roles overall, which shapes how he supports people through tough moments.

Outside of work he enjoys exercise, walking, good food, and music. He frames therapy as a team effort and helps people find sustainable ways to feel more capable and connected.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding the person’s experience and following their pace. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to explore feelings and set their own goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors to find practical changes that reduce anxiety or improve mood. It often uses exercises between sessions to build new habits.

Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to patterns that come from past relationships and experiences. It can help people notice repeated ways of relating and make different choices in the present.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. They then try methods that fit those needs and adjust them over time.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and keeping continuity during life changes. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins between in-person visits or to attend when travel would be difficult. Because formats were not specified in the original biography, confirm the available session types before booking to make sure they match your needs.
