Background and approach

She supports people dealing with trauma, abuse, grief, parenting strain, career stress, and identity questions including LGBT concerns. Her approach combines body-focused work with talk therapy. Somatic methods help people notice how stress shows up in the body, while cognitive and skills-based tools address thoughts and behaviors.

Attachment-based and client-centered ideas guide how she builds trust and keeps sessions focused on each person’s needs. In practical terms she helps people reduce overwhelm, manage anger, and steady mood swings with usable skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. She also offers coaching-style guidance for career and life transitions when clients want more direction.

Dr. Reinman sees issues related to adoption and foster care, abandonment, dissociation, family of origin problems, communication breakdowns, and caregiver stress. Her work is grounded in real-world strategies that people can try between sessions to build change over time.

How somatic and attachment approaches work online

Somatic work helps people notice sensations in the body and learn simple techniques to calm or shift those sensations. It can be helpful for trauma responses, anxiety, and situations where tension shows up as physical symptoms.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connections shape current reactions. It can help people who struggle with trust, fear of abandonment, or repeating unhelpful relationship habits.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's pace, making space for what matters most in each session.

Finding the right approach is a joint effort. The therapist will discuss goals and try different methods to see what fits best. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools and strategies to use and adjust them over time.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is useful for fuller conversation and body-based exercises, phone can be lower bandwidth, and text options let people check in between sessions. These formats make it easier to schedule work around busy days and to keep momentum between visits.
