About Renee
Renee draws on about nine years of clinical experience in Michigan to support people facing trauma, attachment concerns, and mood difficulties. She also works with those coping with caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image struggles, and isolation. Her work often addresses things like guilt, shame, abandonment fears, and trouble with communication.
In sessions she uses Client-Centered methods to follow each person’s pace and priorities. She pairs that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts and behaviors, and DBT skills when emotion regulation and impulsivity are central. Mindfulness and motivational techniques are used to build present-moment awareness and momentum toward change.
Renee aims to help clients set clear, manageable goals and practice small skills between meetings. She adapts tools to fit each person’s life rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions. Many clients find this stepwise, collaborative style useful when handling family conflict, life transitions, or ongoing stress.
Renee welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and can incorporate faith perspectives when requested. Sessions are conducted in English and are based in Michigan. If you’re supporting a loved one or managing care responsibilities, she lists Supporting carers among her focus areas and can help unpack caregiver strain.

How Renee’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Renee combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to make online sessions practical and approachable. Client-Centered Therapy means the conversation follows what you bring and respects your pace, which can help when sorting caregiving stress or relationship concerns. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes, useful for anxiety, depression, and mood management.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when strong emotions or impulsivity are present. DBT skills teach concrete tools for regulating emotions, handling interpersonal conflict, and tolerating distress without making a situation worse. These methods are taught in a step-by-step way so you can practice between meetings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Renee will review your goals and preferences and recommend the mix of techniques that fits your situation. You and she can adjust the plan as you learn what helps most.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full hour is not needed. Talk with Renee about what will work best for your schedule and daily life.
