Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Renee. I’m passionate about helping people who are overwhelmed with life & feel lost in unfulfilling relationships with their spouse, friends, or family. I’ve been a mental health professional for over 19 years and I can help you live a more expansive & joyful life, By understanding how the brain works, you can experience more calm & connection.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I work with clients on increasing connection and attunement to self and others. I do this through a variety of ways, including examining, processing and helping change thoughts, feelings and behaviors that no longer serve your highest and best self. My goal is to help you help yourself.

What you can expect from our first session

I can help you live a more expansive & joyful life, By understanding and working on how your thoughts, feelings experiences and actions influence how you show up in your life, you can experience more calm & connection in your relationships, too.
