About Reynie

He practices from Utah and brings a warm, accepting presence to sessions. Reynie focuses on helping people build everyday skills and clearer direction so they can feel more capable and satisfied in life.
He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them.
How Reynie works
He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR when those approaches fit the issue. Sessions may include learning coping skills, practicing new ways of thinking, or processing difficult memories at a pace that feels manageable. Reynie aims to help people connect with their values and make choices that match what matters most to them.
He often balances teaching practical tools and offering attentive listening. This can look like short skill-building exercises or longer conversations to understand patterns that keep someone stuck. He works with a wide range of concerns including self-esteem, relationship struggles, caregiver stress, substance issues, and feelings of isolation or purposelessness.
Reynie also addresses guilt, forgiveness, control issues, and challenges related to fatherhood and family of origin. Outside work he enjoys music, watching sports, and spending time with loved ones. He welcomes an initial conversation to see if his style and approaches fit what a person needs.

Online support options
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and take steps that match their values. In practice this looks like learning simple exercises to reduce avoidance and making small behavior changes that add up over time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It often includes short homework tasks and skill practice that fit well into an online format. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is used to process distressing memories; when appropriate, it can be adapted for remote work with careful pacing and attention to how a person tolerates the material.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Reynie meets people where they are and discusses options together. He will help decide whether ACT, CBT, EMDR, or a mix of methods best matches a person's goals, needs, and comfort level so the plan feels collaborative and clear.
Online sessions offer flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer conversations and skills practice, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief notes or ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
