About Reggie
Reggie Thirus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with six years of counseling experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, and issues related to gender and LGBT identity.
Reggie uses practical, structured methods to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on clear goals and step-by-step changes people can try between meetings. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered and psychodynamic ideas to guide those conversations.
In practice he encourages straightforward discussion about what is causing distress and what the client would like to change. That can include looking at thought patterns, testing different responses to difficult situations, and tracking small changes to see what helps. He also attends to how past relationships and early experiences affect current patterns.
Reggie supports work on a wide range of topics from parenting and career stress to grief, bipolar mood management, ADHD, intimacy, and compulsive behaviors. He offers coaching-style conversations when clients want concrete steps for making changes in daily life.
Outside of clinical work he enjoys exercise, walking, food, and music. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session formats and logistics before booking so they know what to expect.
How his approaches translate to online work
Reggie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thought patterns and try small behavior experiments that can be done between sessions. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, mood concerns, and many day-to-day problems because it breaks issues into clear steps.He also uses client-centered methods that focus on the client's priorities and psychodynamic ideas that look at how past relationships influence current reactions. Client-centered work keeps sessions focused on what the person wants to address, while psychodynamic thinking can help when repetitive patterns trace back to earlier experiences.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose techniques and goals that match their needs and preferences. This is a practical partnership where adjustments are made as progress is tracked.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people try regular work on thoughts and behaviors without rearranging their whole schedule.
