About Ronald

Ronald Faggins is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Nevada with 26 years of experience. He works with adults on common household stresses such as anxiety, depression, parenting strain, anger, and recovery from trauma or abuse. He also notes a focus on adoption and foster care, fatherhood issues, caregiver stress, and related family challenges.

His approach is straightforward and practical. He centers sessions on clear conversation about what is happening at home. He helps people sort thoughts and feelings, and identifies concrete next steps they can try between meetings. Sessions are aimed at reducing immediate overwhelm and improving everyday routines.

Ronald uses several counseling methods depending on the person and the problem. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to work on values and action, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, and Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the person's priorities. He also uses Narrative and Solution-Focused ideas when those fit a client's goals.

People who choose him can expect a steady, problem-focused style. He works at the pace each person prefers and checks in about progress. He invites clients to discuss parenting challenges, grief around adoption or fostering, aging and caregiver stress, and stress linked to emergency work or trauma.

To begin, he asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How sessions work

How his approaches work for home and parenting concerns

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on what matters to a person and encourages small steps toward those values. It can help when parenting or family duties feel overwhelming by clarifying priorities and building committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change unhelpful routines. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation guided by the person's concerns and pace, giving space for the client to set the agenda and decide what to address next.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ronald treats that as a collaborative process. He will talk with the person about goals and preferences, try approaches that fit, and adjust based on what helps most over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into busy family schedules, shorten commute time, and allow brief check-ins during a work break. Therapists often adapt exercises and homework so they can be used between visits and in everyday life, which helps apply insights directly to home situations.
