About Reynie
Reynie Sandoval is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Utah with 25 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, and relationship concerns, and also addresses family of origin issues and related patterns that emerge from childhood roles and expectations.
He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as a primary approach. That means he helps people notice what matters to them, learn small practical skills, and take actions that align with their values. He also draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), client-centered work, and mindfulness practices as needed.
Sessions are a mix of skill teaching and focused listening. Reynie aims to help people recognize repeating patterns that came from their family of origin, understand how those patterns appear now, and try different ways of responding. He can guide someone through stress around caregiving, communication problems, control issues, or the strain that comes with separation and divorce.
He also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, addiction concerns, isolation, and questions about life purpose. Practical strategies can include behavioral experiments, mindfulness exercises, and values-based goal setting so daily choices feel clearer and more manageable.
Outside work he spends time with family, makes music, and watches sports. He asks new clients to use the site’s matching questionnaire to schedule a first session so they can talk about goals and next steps.
How Reynie Uses ACT, CBT, and EMDR Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and building small, practical habits to act on those values. It can help with stress, anxiety, and making different choices when old family patterns show up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts and behaviors into manageable steps and uses exercises to test new responses to familiar situations. It is often used for depression, anxiety, and self-esteem concerns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) works with targeted techniques to process distressing memories and reduce their hold on present functioning; it is sometimes used when past events continue to disrupt daily life.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying exercises, checking what is helpful, and adjusting the plan over time so sessions stay relevant to current needs.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking, since the profile does not list specific online delivery options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For many people this flexibility helps keep progress steady while they practice new skills between sessions.
