Transform Your Life with Expert Therapy from Regina Chow Trammel, PhD, LCSW

Are you exhausted and burned out and feel like you can't focus your thoughts, let alone perform at work? Perhaps you need support for depression, anxiety, a history of trauma, stress, and/or burnout. 

You need a therapist who is collaborative, genuine, authentic, warm, and empathetic, all while being mindful of your goals. The therapy process can help you gain insight, heal, and navigate your emotions with self compassion and skill.

Hi! I’m Regina Chow Trammel, PhD, LCSW, and I have successfully treated hundreds of clients throughout my 17+ years of practice using mindfulness, existential, cognitive, and process-based interventions. I also understand the unique cultural & social factors that impact mental well-being. I can integrate faith and spirituality in sessions, if so desired. Our work together will be collaborative and supportive, always keeping in mind your goals for healing.

Take the first step toward healing and a more fulfilling life. Contact me today to schedule a session.I am trained as a clinical social worker and provide psychotherapy because I know it works. I have seen the profound change not only in people’s lives, but, in their families and communities as well.

I am also a professor, researcher and author and am committed to providing evidence-based therapies that I have studied and teach about in our work together.

I am committed to creating a warm and safe space for you, where you can explore your own story, to discover and nurture—with compassion—a stronger, more resilient sense of self. I want you to be able to show up as your best self to achieve the goals you want to actualize at home, work, and in all your relationships.

I often use mindfulness based therapies in my practice (DBT, somatic, and inner child work) & discuss issues from an existential lens. Authenticity, freedom, agency are working themes we will explore together. For more on my approach, hit the Home Page button below.

Faith-Integrated Therapy

If you desire, I can integrate faith into our therapy sessions, providing a holistic approach to your mental health journey.

Asian American Mental Health

As an expert in Asian American mental health treatment, I understand the unique cultural and social factors that impact mental well-being. My approach is warm, authentic, and collaborative, ensuring that you feel supported and understood every step of the way. As a Chinese-American, second-generation woman, I am proud of my heritage, story, and family. My identity is a strength I draw from in my work, and is a tool in the therapeutic space.

An Experienced Therapist in Trauma, Depression & Anxiety (stress, burnout & panic)

Together, we will work on process & insight based skills, enfolded into cognitive skills. Trauma work will involve skills to ground you. I believe in conceptual homework to reinforce our work together.

I was trained at the Veterans Administration in downtown Los Angeles, where I first began working with vets experiencing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Substance Use Disorders.

I then worked at Linden Oaks Hospital (part of Edward Hospital) in Naperville, IL in the inpatient, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient programs where I helped patients stabilize out of severe and/or chronic mental health challenges.

As a private practitioner, I have facilitated groups addressing postpartum depression, sexual assault and abuse, and have provided healing, therapeutic support to women and men facing crisis.

Currently, I am both a professor and practitioner, where I get to weave in the best of current research, with tried and true therapeutic skills in my work. I am committed to showing up in an authentic, compassionate and actively engaged way for my clients.

Below is a list of issues I treat and a list of techniques I use (having undergone years of study and training in their use and efficacy):
