About Reimi
Reimi Willett is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She supports clients facing life changes, relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, and issues such as self-esteem, anger, eating concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Reimi brings 12 years of direct counseling experience and practical skills to each session.
Her approach centers on the person in front of her. She listens without judgment and creates space for clients to speak and think things through.
Background and approach
Sessions mix conversation with hands-on strategies aimed at real-life problems. Reimi uses behavior change techniques, problem solving, and cognitive restructuring to help reframe unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also teaches mindfulness practices that calm the body and improve focus.
These tools are explained in plain language and practiced together in sessions. For parents and people involved in youth athletics, she offers coaching around performance under pressure. That work focuses on self-regulation, visualization, and mental strategies to increase confidence and control during competition.
Practical drills and simple routines are taught so skills transfer to practice and game day. Clients can expect a direct, compassionate style with clear takeaways after each meeting. Reimi works in English and Japanese and draws on more than a decade of experience to tailor support to each person’s needs.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Reimi uses cognitive restructuring to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns. This involves identifying automatic negative thoughts and practicing alternative ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and improve decision making.She also teaches mindfulness and self-regulation techniques to lower stress and increase focus. These are short, practical exercises in breathing, grounding, and attention that clients can use before tests, competitions, or stressful conversations.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Reimi collaborates with each person to choose techniques based on their goals and daily life. She adjusts methods over time so the tools fit what the client needs and can be used between sessions.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences. Video calls are useful when visual cues help the conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and messaging work well for short check-ins, quick skill practice, and ongoing support between longer conversations.
