Renee Rodgers
Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Illinois. With a master's degree from Aurora University and three years of experience, I have dedicated myself to supporting individuals in navigating challenges, enhancing mental well-being, and fostering resilience. In my practice, I integrate evidence-based interventions tailored to each individual's unique needs, empowering them to make meaningful progress toward their goals. My approach involves creating a safe and empathetic space for you to express your concerns openly.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
We'll begin by introducing ourselves in this session. After that, we can discuss the particular challenges you're currently facing. This conversation will lay the groundwork for creating a plan that aligns with your needs for our upcoming sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having engaged with diverse individuals for the last three years, I've honed effective methods to help you uncover the root issues of your challenges. This enables us to craft a custom plan that leads to noticeable and measurable progress.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In my practice, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy involves collaboratively identifying and challenging negative thought patterns, setting specific goals, and equipping clients with practical skills to foster positive change and empower them in their mental well-being journey.
Cognitive Processing (CPT)
Cognitive processing involves working with clients to explore and reframe their thought processes, particularly those linked to trauma or distressing experiences. In my therapeutic experience, guiding clients through cognitive processing techniques has entailed helping them identify and reevaluate negative cognitions associated with their trauma, promoting adaptive thinking and contributing to their healing and emotional well-being.
Grief Therapy
In my experience with grief therapy, I have worked with clients navigating the complex emotions and challenges associated with loss. The therapeutic process involves creating a supportive space for clients to express and process their grief, exploring the unique facets of their loss, and validating their emotional responses. The goal is to facilitate a healthy grieving process, allowing clients to honor their emotions, adjust to life without their loved one, and eventually find a renewed sense of meaning and connection.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
In my practice with mindfulness-based therapy, I've guided clients in cultivating present-moment awareness and non-judgmental observation of their thoughts and emotions. This approach involves incorporating mindfulness techniques, such as breath awareness and meditation, to enhance self-awareness and promote a more balanced response to stressors. Clients have found these practices valuable in reducing anxiety, improving focus, and fostering a greater sense of overall well-being.
