About May
May Reinert is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She brings seven years of experience and helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, parenting concerns, and life transitions. She uses straightforward conversation to identify what matters most to each person.
Sessions focus on real goals - better sleep, clearer boundaries, coping with change, or making progress at work. She aims to create a calm space where someone can say what they really think and feel without judgment.
Background and approach
May blends talking therapy with tools people can use between sessions. That can include short exercises drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches, mindfulness practices to reduce tension, and skills to manage intense emotions. She also uses motivational techniques to help people move toward decisions they actually want to make.
Her background includes work with people facing trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and challenges connected to ADHD and bipolar mood patterns. She also supports adults navigating adoption, blended family stress, fertility concerns, and first responder strain. May is licensed in Florida as well as New York and Ohio and holds LMHC and LPCC credentials.
She offers sessions in English and uses several online formats to match different needs and schedules. If someone is ready to take a step, she helps make a plan that fits their life.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
May combines client-centered care with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness exercises to meet everyday parenting and life challenges. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities so sessions reflect their goals. Cognitive behavioral work helps identify unhelpful thoughts and build small behavior changes that improve sleep, mood, and stress. Mindfulness therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce tension and bring steadiness during parenting stress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels most useful. Together they pick strategies to try and adjust them as progress is made or circumstances change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief updates, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work breaks, school hours, or unpredictable parenting days.
