Regina Sigafoos, MA, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor, Supervised by Adam Clevenger (E.1901569-SUPV)

I (pronouns: she/her/hers) am excited and honored to be part of your healing journey! I’m a queer, sex‑positive therapist who centers LGBTQIA+ folks, women, nonbinary and trans people in individual and relationship therapy.

I am passionate about LGBTQIA+ issues and working from a trauma-informed lens to provide individualized care with everyone I work with. As an advocate for justice and equity in mental health care, I know how important it is to acknowledge and address culture, privilege, race, gender, size, ability, sexuality, and the intersections of your unique identities and experiences in this world.

If you’ve ever felt like the “odd one out” in spaces that don’t fully understand queer, fat, kinky, or non‑monogamous lives, you’re not alone. I bring my lived experience, warmth, and a lot of humor into the room so we can make space for both the hard and the joyful. My style is relational, compassionate, and direct. As an eclectic therapist, I draw from modalities like DBT, TF‑CBT, Feminist, and LGBTQ+ affirmative therapies to support your self‑compassion, resilience, and growth. Therapy doesn’t have to be all serious—I believe laughter and play can be powerful tools for healing. I strive to create a sex‑positive, affirming space where we move at your pace and define together what healing looks like. If that sounds like a fit, I’d love to connect.

Range of clinical focus:

I was born and raised in Ohio, and live just outside of Columbus with my partner. When I’m not working with clients, I am passionate about Strongman training and lifting heavy things! I have two dogs and one cat that I love dearly, and I also enjoy all things pop culture. As my office will show you, I have never met a trinket I didn’t like. Therapy has always been near and dear to my heart, and I found myself back in school in 2021 after a ten-year career in digital marketing.
