Regina Kujawa , LCSW

Regina Kujawa is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with three decades of experience in mental health care. She focuses on practical approaches that help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, trauma, and mood challenges. Regina draws on several therapy styles and years of front-line work to offer steady support.

She has a long history providing care across settings including inpatient units, intensive in-home services, substance and alcohol treatment, and outpatient therapy. That background means she is familiar with crisis situations and complex life transitions. Clients can expect clear guidance and calm problem-solving during difficult moments.

Regina uses a mix of approaches such as attachment-based methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior skills, emotionally-focused work, and mindfulness practices. She also pairs talk therapy with body-centered tools from her fitness and trauma-release background when appropriate. Her aim is to help people notice patterns, build coping skills, and feel steadier in day-to-day life.

Many of her focus areas relate to family dynamics, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, and relationship communication concerns. She also supports people dealing with addiction, eating and body-image struggles, bipolar conditions, ADHD, chronic pain and illness, and aging-related concerns.

Regina practices in North Carolina and conducts sessions in English. She offers a range of online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Regina commonly uses attachment-based methods to help people notice how early relationships affect current patterns. This approach looks at how connection and communication shape emotional responses and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is another tool she uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors that improve mood and daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, provides skill-based tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be especially useful for intense mood swings or relationship conflict.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Regina will work with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the work stays relevant and practical for daily life.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever they are. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a short break during the day. Live chat and text messaging provide quick check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions.
