About Renisha
Renisha Oubre is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana with 12 years of experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, grief, and parenting challenges. She also supports people facing ADHD, trauma and abuse, addiction, and mood concerns including bipolar disorder.
Oubre favors a client-centered approach that keeps the person's perspective central. She listens first and uses other methods as needed, such as cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior techniques, mindfulness strategies, and motivational interviewing. Sessions are collaborative and straightforward. The client’s goals and feedback guide what happens next.
Her background includes work in school and mental health counseling settings. That experience brought exposure to a wide range of issues across ages and life stages. It also shaped a practical way of working that focuses on skills, communication, and real-world problem solving.
In sessions she checks understanding often and adjusts approaches based on the client’s needs. Conversations can cover communication patterns, coping skills, managing strong emotions, and strategies for day-to-day functioning. She also addresses family-origin concerns and blended family stress when those come up.
People who choose Oubre should expect direct, respectful dialogue and an emphasis on actionable steps. She asks for honest feedback and wants clients to raise questions so the work can be adjusted. This helps keep sessions focused and useful.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding the client’s point of view and promoting self-direction. The therapist listens carefully and reflects what she hears to help clarify goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and introduces practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be useful for intense moods or relationship conflicts.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review options, try methods in session, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients play an active role in deciding which techniques to keep or change, so the plan evolves with their needs and goals.
