Abigail Reiner

Abigail Reiner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Texas with 15 years of professional experience. She works with people facing depression, bipolar disorder, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting and family concerns, and questions about identity and sexual orientation. Abigail also assists those coping with major life changes and struggles with self-esteem.

She uses straightforward conversation and focused techniques to help people make practical changes. Sessions emphasize listening to the client's goals and finding steps that fit their life. Abigail draws on client-centered methods to prioritize the person's perspective and on solution-focused tools to identify immediate, doable steps.

Motivational interviewing is part of her approach when someone is unsure about change or needs help building momentum. That method helps people name ambivalence and find internal reasons to try different behaviors. It is often used alongside practical problem solving.

Abigail has worked across contexts that include substance use, communication problems, attachment issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and caregiver stress. She can also address challenges such as chronic illness, impulsivity, and family of origin issues.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. She works with individuals on a plan that aims to resolve pressing problems efficiently when that is the client's preference. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening to what the client says and shaping sessions around their priorities. Online, this often means starting with the client's immediate concerns and checking in about what matters most each session. Motivational interviewing helps people who feel torn about change by gently naming ambivalence and highlighting personal reasons to try new steps; virtually this can be done through guided questions and collaborative planning. Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on small, concrete steps that move a person toward their goals, so sessions often end with clear actions to try before the next meeting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Abigail discusses options with each person and adjusts methods based on the client's goals and preferences. This collaborative planning helps decide whether to use more listening, more motivational work, or a brief solution-focused plan for a few sessions.

Session format options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people continue therapy across life changes while working with a licensed professional who will help tailor the approach to their situation.
