Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Renee integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take committed actions that align with what matters most to them. ACT often supports work on anxiety, life transitions, and issues related to motivation and purpose.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on creating an empathic, nonjudgmental space where clients are heard and supported. This approach is especially helpful for people navigating body image concerns, disordered eating, relationship difficulties, and moments of change.

In practice, Renee and each client determine together which approach or combination of strategies best fits the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process allows the therapist and client to adjust methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Renee is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving clients flexible options to engage in care from their own settings. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue work during relocation or life transitions, and maintain consistent contact with licensed professionals when in-person visits are not practical.
