Getting to know Reina M. Michelle
Welcome! I am Reina Michelle, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in working with adults 18- 49 years old who have depression, anxiety, and mood disorders. Together, we will identify your challenges and goals - where you want your life to be a month, six months, a year from now. Then, we'll identify options and strategies you can use to get there. You'll leave the session with a better understanding of what you're facing feeling more positive and on-track with your life.
Mental health problems can hurt many young adults and get in the way of living happier and healthier lives. I have helped people with Bipolar, OCD, and Panic Disorders using CBT, Solution Focused Therapy, Exposure Therapy, Narrative, and DBT among others. These disorders can cause disruptions with partners, family, and friends. Additionally, I teach communication skills to "individuals" to bring better understanding to their relationships. I come to my sessions with the ability to speak freely, honestly, and from the heart in order to develop strong, meaningful connections with my clients.
I am licensed with a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology from JFK University in San Jose, CA, in 2010.
Life is too precious to put off your happiness and well-being any longer. Helping you to succeed in overcoming mental health challenges and developing healthy communication skills is my goal and I look forward to meeting you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I have worked with individuals who have depression and anxiety issues. I specialize in Couples Counseling using The Gottman Method to better communicate with others. I teach tools to help with their communication with each other and have them practice seeing each other in new ways. I am a certified DBT specialist working with people who have depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. I also work with individuals who have anger issues and troubled relationship problems.
When people look at their family history they discover many things that have become repetitive problems in dealing with others, and understanding their past relationships with others can bring about great healing.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
