About May

May Reinert is a licensed mental health counselor and licensed professional clinical counselor with seven years of experience. She is licensed in Florida, New York, Kentucky, and Ohio and helps people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and relationship concerns.

She focuses on practical strategies to notice unhelpful thoughts and change routine responses. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented, using methods that include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered techniques, and mindfulness practices. She also draws on skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and motivational interviewing when those fit a person's goals.

People come for help with things like coping with life changes, grief, intimacy-related concerns, sleep problems, parenting strain, and workplace stress. She also addresses trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related concerns, and a wide range of other difficulties named in her practice list.

Her style is to create a setting where people can speak about difficult emotions without judgment. She works with each person to set clear, manageable steps and to practice new skills between sessions. Progress is treated as a sequence of small experiments rather than a single instant outcome.

Before booking, clients should confirm current session options and the way appointments are scheduled. The first step is a short match questionnaire and then scheduling a first session using the site controls.

How CBT, client-centered work, and DBT translate to online sessions

Clients can expect Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look like identifying patterns of thought and behavior and trying small, testable changes between sessions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress-related concerns because it focuses on concrete skills and short-term practice.

Client-centered approaches emphasize listening and reflecting back what a person says so they can better understand their own goals and values. This method helps when someone needs space to talk through feelings and decide next steps. Dialectical Behavior Therapy contributes practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness; it can be helpful for emotion regulation and relationship-related problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and help decide which methods fit a person’s goals, preferences, and day-to-day life in a collaborative way. That decision can change as work progresses and new needs appear.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find it simpler to practice skills in real-life moments between sessions when meetings are held remotely.
