Reginald Bruno

Reginald Bruno is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 28 years of experience. He helps adults who are managing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. He also addresses related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and loneliness.

He uses clear, evidence-informed methods in sessions. He encourages straightforward talk about what is causing difficulty and looks for realistic steps that can be tried between meetings. Expect discussions that connect current problems to patterns in thinking and behavior. Sessions move at a practical pace focused on what the person wants to change.

Reginald draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test different responses. He works with issues linked to substance use, impulsivity, and the emotional impacts of major life events like divorce, loss, or caregiving roles. He also supports people dealing with aging concerns and hospice or end-of-life matters.

In session he aims for straightforward communication and an interactive style. He invites clients to set goals and to review progress regularly. He describes therapy as a place to try new ways of thinking and acting, not just to talk about feelings.

Practical steps - like short behavior experiments, tracking mood and thoughts, and problem-focused planning - are commonly used. He asks people to consider small changes that fit into their daily life, then reviews what works and what needs adjusting.

How CBT and practical methods are used in online work

Reginald uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in a straightforward way to help people notice and change thinking patterns that contribute to anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful behaviors. CBT sessions typically involve identifying specific thoughts, testing them with small experiments, and practicing different responses to see what works in daily life.

The therapist focuses on problem-oriented work that links thoughts, feelings, and actions. He will collaborate with the client to choose approaches that match their goals and preferences. Finding the right approach is treated as a shared process, with regular check-ins to adjust methods as needed.

The practical benefit of online sessions is fitting work into a busy life. Confirm which session formats are available before booking, since formats are not specified in this profile. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, or keep therapy during life transitions. The therapist aims to help clients try real-life changes between appointments and then review progress together.
