CBT-focused support and online session basics
Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a core approach. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It breaks problems into small parts and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful thinking and habits. This method is commonly used for anxiety, social phobia, and stress related to life transitions.The right approach is something to figure out together. The therapist will review symptoms, goals, and what feels doable, then try methods that fit the client’s needs. Clients and the therapist work collaboratively to adjust techniques if they aren’t helping or if priorities change.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around school, shifts, or commuting by reducing travel. Some online formats also allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t possible or let someone use audio-only if bandwidth is limited. Talk with Renee about scheduling and what format would best suit daily life and goals.
