More about Renee
- 20 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
As a licensed therapist in Arizona, I bring over two decades of compassionate, specialized experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on creating affirming, inclusive spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals, trauma survivors, and those navigating significant life transitions.
I specialize in addressing diverse experiences including chronic illness, grief, relationship dynamics, workplace stress, and personal growth. My approach is deeply empathetic, focusing on helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, and work through challenging emotions like guilt, shame, and panic.
With expertise in trauma-informed care, I support clients through various experiences—from trauma recovery to postpartum challenges, chronic illness, and life stage transitions. I'm particularly committed to working with young adults, women, and LGBTQ+ communities, offering a non-judgmental, supportive therapeutic environment.
My therapeutic style emphasizes collaboration, personal empowerment, and holistic healing. I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients develop resilience, understand their unique strengths, and create meaningful pathways toward emotional wellness.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
