Services

Each approach is chosen with you, and explained before it begins. Faith is part of it only if you want it to be.

  • Depth-oriented therapy

    Conversation about the patterns beneath how you feel and relate: memory, relationships, dreams if you bring them, and the week you just had.

    • Who it helps: adults who want to understand long-running patterns

    • Method: depth-oriented therapy, named with your clinician's training before you start

    • What it is not: a diagnosis, a promise of an outcome or a replacement for medical care

    • Pace: set with your clinician, with no number of sessions promised

  • Faith in therapy

    For people who want faith in the work, and for people who don't. If you want prayer, scripture or your church's language in sessions, Reyna follows your lead. If you don't, sessions stay entirely secular.

    • Who it helps: adults whose beliefs matter to them, whatever those beliefs are

    • Sessions: you decide whether faith comes up, and you can change your mind

    • What it is not: spiritual direction, pastoral care or religious teaching

    • Pace: yours, with no number of sessions promised

  • Trauma-informed, body-aware work

    For adults carrying something hard from the past, or stress that lives in the body. Sessions go slowly, start with what helps you feel steady, and you can pause at any point.

    • Who it helps: adults who want a slow start and a say in every step

    • Method: grounding, breath and body awareness; any specialized method is named with its training first

    • What it is not: retelling everything, or a quick fix

    • Pace: set with your clinician, and always open to change

  • Grief and loss

    For adults living with a death or another loss, new or old. Sessions make room for the whole range: anger, tenderness, confusion and silence.

    • Who it helps: adults grieving a person, a relationship, a place or a way of life

    • Sessions: unhurried, with room for whatever the week brought

    • What it is not: a plan to get over it by a certain date

    • Pace: yours, with no number of sessions promised

  • Contemplative and mindfulness-based work

    Meditation, breathwork and reflective practice, folded into therapy if you want them. Prayer can be one of those practices, or none of them.

    • Who it helps: adults who already practice, or want to learn to pause

    • Method: mindfulness and compassion-focused practices, taught step by step

    • What it is not: a meditation class or a replacement for therapy

    • Pace: a few minutes in a session, or none, as you choose
