About Reba
LCSW in Kentucky with 11 years of experience, Reba Pendleton helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and life changes. She works directly with each person to create a practical plan and clear steps forward. Reba uses conversational, goal-focused methods and adapts discussions to each situation.
Reba practices client-centered work that keeps the client's concerns central. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, and solution-focused techniques as useful tools. Sessions tend to focus on identifying patterns, setting achievable goals, and building small coping skills that fit day-to-day life.
Her background includes over a decade in social work practice in Kentucky. That experience means she is familiar with common reactions to loss, trauma, and transitions. She aims to break down problems into manageable pieces and test what works in real life.
In a session, conversations are direct and practical. Reba listens to what is most troubling and then helps outline steps to reduce distress. This might include changing unhelpful thinking, practicing new behaviors, or reframing a difficult story.
People who prefer clear structure and action-oriented work may find this approach useful. Reba encourages clients to set short-term goals and review progress regularly. For anyone considering a first session, she asks that you be ready to describe your main concerns and what you hope to change.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's priorities and uses reflective listening to clarify what matters most. It helps people who need a space to talk through feelings and make decisions about next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and tests small changes to reduce symptoms. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions.
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and builds motivation in short, practical steps. It can be useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about making changes.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences and will adjust plans as progress is reviewed.
Confirm the specific session formats available before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people use online sessions to keep continuity of care while managing work, family, or other commitments.
