About Reggie
Reggie Thirus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with six years of clinical experience. He works with adults who are struggling with anger, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship friction, and issues linked to trauma and addiction. He also supports people facing career strain, parenting challenges, identity concerns, and life changes.
Reggie uses a straightforward, person-centered approach. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use right away. He mixes client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral techniques and psychodynamic ideas to help people understand patterns that feed anger and frustration.
In sessions he helps people spot triggers, test different responses, and set realistic goals for change. He pays attention to past experiences that shape current reactions and to the thoughts that keep strong emotions alive. He works with people to strengthen emotional regulation and reduce impulsive responding.
Reggie also supports people dealing with grief, intimacy problems, sexual culture issues, and neurodiversity concerns such as autism and ADHD. He addresses substance use and co-occurring issues alongside mood and relationship concerns. He invites clients to try approaches and adjust what isn’t working.
Outside of work he enjoys exercise, walking, food, and music. He describes counseling as a collaborative effort where clients decide the pace and focus of their work together.
How his approaches translate to online work
Reggie uses client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and psychodynamic ideas in his work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on attentive listening and supporting the client’s own goals. It helps people clarify what they want to change and set practical steps toward those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches skills to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anger and anxiety. It is useful for workplace stress, impulsivity, and low mood. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns rooted in past relationships. It helps people see how those patterns influence current reactions and relationships.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will review what you bring to sessions, try techniques that match your goals, and adjust methods if something isn’t working. The aim is to find tools that feel useful and realistic for daily life rather than forcing a single method.
The biography does not specify exact online formats, so confirm the session options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins, and reduce travel time so therapy fits around work or family commitments. It can also let people use quieter surroundings, choose audio-only if bandwidth is limited, or keep sessions to brief practical skill work when time is tight.
