About Steve

Steve Reinoehl is a licensed professional counselor with 16 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, addictions, relationship strain, parenting pressures, and life changes. Steve speaks English and practices from Pennsylvania while also accepting international clients.

He aims to give straightforward help in plain language for people who feel overwhelmed and need a steady, practical approach. Steve trained in counseling psychology and earned a master’s degree from Kutztown University in 2007.

Background and approach

He holds the LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor - with the registration PA LPC PC006225. Over his career he has used several evidence-based methods to address emotional and relational problems. In sessions he mixes techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and emotionally-focused work to address thoughts, feelings, and patterns that cause distress.

He also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early bonds shape current relationships. The focus is on clear steps people can try between meetings and honest conversation during sessions. Steve often helps people sort priorities, handle grief, reduce anxiety, and improve communication with partners and family members.

He uses coaching skills when clients want practical planning for change. Conversations are direct, compassionate, and aimed at steady progress. Practical matters are handled simply: sessions can be by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

Therapeutic approaches for online family and relationship work

Steve commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT offers concrete tools for anxiety, depression, and coping with difficult situations by teaching practical exercises and step-by-step experiments.

He also uses emotionally-focused therapy to help people and partners identify and respond to underlying feelings. EFT focuses on what people feel in the moment and how those feelings shape connection and safety in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will talk with clients about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try first. That choice is collaborative and can shift as needs change over time.

Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. These formats make it easier to keep appointments, follow through on homework, and check in between sessions. The options are designed to give flexibility while staying focused on clear steps toward better coping and improved relationships.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
