About Regina

Regina Sarabia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with six years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting pressures, depression, trauma, and anger. Regina offers sessions in English and Spanish and accepts international clients.

Regina draws from several evidence-based methods to address practical problems. She uses cognitive-behavioral ideas to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes. She also brings psychodynamic questions into conversations when useful, looking at patterns that repeat across relationships. Solution-focused tools are used to identify immediate steps a person can try between sessions.

Her work pays attention to culture, social context, and spiritual concerns so these factors are part of goal-setting and planning. Sessions often include setting short-term goals, practicing new responses, and checking how those changes worked in everyday life. Regina helps people manage anger that shows up at work, in close relationships, or when old hurts resurface.

She is bilingual and will switch to Spanish when that better serves the conversation. Regina also supports people coping with caregiving strain, compassion fatigue, eating issues, bipolar mood concerns, and broader life transitions. Her style is direct and practical - focusing on what to try next and how to measure progress.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Payment varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches work in remote sessions

Regina uses a mix of approaches that translate well to remote work. Cognitive-behavioral methods focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes; this helps with anger, anxiety, and stress by offering clear steps to try between sessions. Psychodynamic ideas look at recurring relationship patterns and how past experiences shape present reactions; this can help people understand why anger or resentment keeps reappearing. Solution-focused techniques concentrate on immediate, practical goals and on identifying small, achievable changes that move problems forward.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Regina will listen to a person's concerns, goals, and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. Together they review what works and adjust the plan over time so sessions stay relevant and action-oriented.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. The main practical benefit of remote sessions is fitting therapy into a busy life: it can make scheduling easier, reduce commuting time, and allow quicker follow-up check-ins. Remote work can also make it simpler to pause for short problem-solving conversations or maintain continuity while traveling. Licensed professionals often find that the same evidence-based techniques used in person can be adapted effectively to remote meetings, with a focus on clear goals and regular review of progress.
