About Reynie
Reynie Sandoval is an LCSW - licensed clinical social worker in Utah with 25 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self esteem, depression, and ADHD. Reynie describes a practice that aims to help people build longer-term well-being and greater life satisfaction.
He primarily uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, client-centered techniques, and mindfulness. Sessions often mix skill teaching with careful listening. Reynie aims to help people notice what keeps causing them pain and try different ways of responding.
In practical terms he works on everyday problems such as communication struggles, caregiver stress, control issues, and isolation. He also addresses topics like fatherhood issues, divorce and separation, addiction, and family of origin problems. The focus is on skills and choices that make daily life more manageable.
Reynie works with concerns related to guilt, shame, impulsivity, and life purpose. He also supports men dealing with identity and role pressures. Therapy can include learning mindfulness tools, practicing behavior changes, and processing past events with EMDR when appropriate.
Outside of clinical work he spends time with family, makes and plays music, and follows sports. To start, Reynie asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so he can get a clear sense of goals and next steps.
How Reynie brings CBT and ACT into online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people focus on what matters most and take small actions that reflect their values. It uses exercises to notice inner experiences and to choose behavior that aligns with those values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life-direction questions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is practical and structured. It targets unhelpful thinking and routines, breaks problems into manageable steps, and uses in-session practice and between-session tasks to build different habits. This approach is often used for anxiety, stress, and self-esteem work.
Client-centered techniques emphasize listening and reflecting so the person can clarify goals and feel understood. That time to talk can make it easier to try experiential methods like ACT or skills from CBT.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. Reynie will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person’s needs, and adjust based on how helpful they feel. The choice of methods is collaborative and can change over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. Different approaches work well in remote conversations because they combine talking, guided exercises, and homework that can be done between meetings.
