How Renee’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. It helps people clarify what matters to them and find their own path forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Renee will ask about your goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then collaborate on a plan that combines methods as needed. That may mean practicing new skills between sessions or checking in on small, stepwise goals.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break or scheduling around caregiving duties. It also can reduce travel time and help people maintain continuity of care when routines change. Licensed professionals often adjust pacing and homework to match an online setting so progress stays practical and goal oriented.
