(she/her)
Hey! I am Renata. If you are here, you are probably contemplating change. My favorite quote is "tradition is the enemy of progress." There will not be sustained change without addressing potential problems in the way we have traditionally approached our circumstances. If you are open to stepping outside of traditional patterns, you may be ready for a journey of change.
Anticipating the first session can lead to feeling nervous and even some anxiety. Believe it or not, your therapist is likely feeling nervous as well. It's normal to feel this. First sessions are usually just about getting to know each other and discussing your desired outcomes for therapy. It's an opportunity to see if there is a therapeutic match.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Master Certified Addiction Professional. I practice cultural humility. I have vast experience with those who serve in the military, their spouses, and children. I fully support people living as their true selves, minus trauma and social expectations. I specialize in addressing family traumas that impact decision making and hinder progression.
I am positioned to serve anyone who is ready to take steps towards building a new relationship with themselves. It all starts with you.

Mrs. Renata is so easy to talk to. She’s incredibly understanding and really listens without judgment. What I appreciate most is how she makes every conversation feel real and meaningful. She creates a space that feels safe, and supportive which makes a huge difference. I always leave our sessions feeling heard and grounded. I honestly can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a therapist who truly cares and gets it.
