Regina Hughes

Regina Hughes is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. She has 14 years of experience helping people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and major life changes. Regina focuses on practical help that people can use between sessions. Her approach centers on open conversation and clear, manageable steps. She creates a nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about difficult feelings and figure out what matters most to them. Regina uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, working with clients to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try new things that lead to different outcomes. Regina often helps people facing grief, trauma or substance concerns, and those coping with burnout or compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with family of origin issues, blended family stress, body image concerns, and challenges around commitment or communication. Sessions tend to focus on concrete goals and small changes that build over time. People who want practical strategies for daily struggles may find this style useful. Regina encourages regular check-ins on progress and adjusts plans as needs change. She also helps people prepare for major transitions, such as separation, parenting shifts, or career moves. To begin, prospective clients are asked to use the site’s Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling follows from that match and the therapist's availability.

How CBT and online care can help with life changes

Regina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns of thinking that increase distress and to try new behaviors to change outcomes. CBT focuses on specific problems and teaches practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and strong emotions.

Working together, the therapist and client decide which approaches fit best. That process is collaborative and may change over time as goals and life situations shift. Regina aims to tailor strategies to each person's needs and day-to-day reality.

Confirm session formats before booking since the profile does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to work with a licensed professional in North Carolina from another region or country if international arrangements are appropriate. Ask about the available session options when you schedule so you can pick what works best for your routine.
