LCSW, 10 years of experience
My name is Renee and I am a clinically licensed social worker with a diverse background in assisting individuals on their journey to recovery and wellness. My therapeutic approach is strength-based and person-centered in order to put the individual at the center of their treatment. I utilize cognitive based and trauma informed therapeutic interventions. I believe that each individual is capable of becoming empowered to heal and transform, and I enjoy being a guide on that journey.
n our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked practicing cognitive behavioral therapy for depression, anxiety, adjustment, substance abuse, among others, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I enjoy working with individuals motivated, open and willing to engage in the therapeutic process. I believe all of us have unique strengths that we can apply to overcome challenges and obstacles in our lives.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Change how you think, change how you feel. CBT helps you identify and challenge negative thoughts, replacing them with positive ones.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): If you struggle with emotional regulation and boundaries, DBT can be a game-changer. Learn essential skills to manage emotions, communicate effectively, and build strong, healthy connections while staying true to yourself.
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR): Learn to stay present and calm with meditation and breathing exercises. Reduce stress and boost your focus.
Motivational Interviewing (MI): This is all about finding your own motivation. We'll help you explore why you want to change and build your commitment to recovery.
Attachment Therapy: Ever wonder how your past affects your present relationships? This therapy digs into your early experiences and helps you create healthier, happier connections.
