Reegan Koppelman, LMHC

Reegan Koppelman is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with eight years of clinical experience. She practices a person-centered style that emphasizes building trust and taking time to understand each person's story. Reegan focuses on relationship concerns among many other issues and aims to help people manage stress, anxiety, and life changes in practical ways.

She began her work using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing and has added mindfulness and trauma-focused methods over time. Reegan's early work included treating co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns in an outpatient clinic setting. Since 2017 she shifted much of her practice to online care to better reach LGBTQIA+ clients and women affected by trauma.

Reegan describes her approach as meeting people where they are. Sessions often start by building rapport and identifying one or two concrete goals. She uses CBT tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts, motivational techniques to encourage change, and mindfulness skills to manage overwhelming feelings.

She also addresses complex issues such as grief, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, bipolar and ADHD symptoms, and histories of abuse or abandonment. Reegan is neurodivergent-affirming and open to discussing questions about possible neurodivergence as part of therapy.

Reegan works with people across Florida and accepts international clients. To get started, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled based on availability.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a strong working relationship. It gives space for a person to be heard and for goals to emerge at their own pace, which is useful for relationship concerns and identity questions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify patterns of thinking and behavior that get in the way. CBT breaks problems into smaller steps and provides exercises that can be practiced between sessions to reduce anxiety and manage mood.

Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on reducing the impact of past harm through paced work and grounding skills. It supports people coping with abuse, dissociation, or nervous system dysregulation by teaching ways to notice and manage intense reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation happens early and can be revisited as progress is made.

Discuss the practical arrangements before beginning therapy online. Confirm the current session options, fees, and appointment schedule, and raise any access needs or communication preferences. The aim is to understand the next steps and decide whether the proposed arrangements work for you.
