Ramon Reina, LICSW

Ramon Reina is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from the University of Minnesota. He brings 30 years of experience helping people manage depression, anxiety, relationship strain, and the life changes that follow divorce.

He keeps sessions direct and practical. Ramon listens first, then helps people identify small, doable steps they can try between meetings. He emphasizes personal choice and responsibility while staying respectful of each person's circumstances.

Ramon draws on several therapy approaches to match what a person needs. He uses attachment-focused ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. He also uses client-centered and psychodynamic ideas to help people feel heard and to uncover repeating themes that get in the way.

Many people come to him for help with grief, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, or addiction-related issues. He also supports people facing career questions, low self-esteem, or anger and shame. Ramon works in both English and Spanish in Minnesota.

The first meeting is usually about understanding what matters most to the person and setting concrete goals. Ramon aims to make therapy usable in everyday life, with clear steps and a steady focus on what the person wants to change.

How Ramon’s Approaches Fit Online Care

Ramon commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to guide his work. Attachment-based approaches look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help people who struggle with trust, closeness, or repeated relationship conflicts. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what the person says, which helps people feel understood and clarify their own goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ramon works collaboratively with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences, and he adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make therapy fit into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins between meetings, or making it easier to schedule sessions around work or parenting. Ramon aims to shape sessions so they are practical and usable in day-to-day routines.
