About Reimi
Reimi Willett is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor practicing in Illinois. She has 12 years of experience offering counseling support and holds a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Boston College. Reimi speaks English and Japanese and brings a calm, patient presence to sessions.
Her approach centers on the person in front of her. She creates a respectful, non-judgmental space where clients can talk and work through what matters most. Reimi listens closely and helps people sort through feelings, set small goals, and try practical steps between sessions.
Reimi uses behavior-focused techniques to help change unhelpful routines and cognitive strategies to challenge stressful thoughts. She also teaches mindfulness and self-regulation skills so clients can respond differently when pressure rises. These methods are aimed at everyday problems like stress, anxiety, grief, and changes in life roles.
Parents and caregivers often seek her help with family and parenting concerns and with supporting athletes who perform under pressure. She offers coaching around performance, visualization, and managing competition-related stress.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Reimi works with each person to build tools they can use at home and in daily life. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on therapist availability.
How Reimi’s approaches translate to online work
Reimi draws on practical, evidence-based techniques that translate well to remote sessions. Cognitive strategies involve noticing and testing stressful thoughts, then trying small experiments to see what changes in daily routines. This helps with anxiety, self-esteem, and coping with life transitions.She also teaches mindfulness and self-regulation skills. These are simple exercises to calm the body and steady attention, useful when emotions run high or before a performance under pressure. For athletes she uses visualization and cognitive management to build confidence and focus during competition.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Reimi talks with each person about their goals and preferences and adapts methods as needed so techniques fit the client’s life and routines. This collaborative process helps decide which tools to try first.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins between other commitments. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and coaching techniques to work well in remote settings when that format is available.
