Dr. Renee Clauselle

Dr. Renee Clauselle

Psychologist

Virtual • Florida


Hi! I'm Dr. Renee Clauselle. I'm a down to earth psychologist that has been in practice for over 20 years. I am passionate about my client's personal growth. My specialties include, but are not limited to treatment of anxiety, depression, life transitions, attachment styles, self worth, parenting, and more. I'm a former professor at St. John's University and a media psychologist for GMA. Check out some of my appearances on Youtube @dr.reneeclauselle1571.

I specialize in working with clients who feel stuck in patterns they can recognize but struggle to change, such as overthinking, repeating unhealthy relationship dynamics, difficulty regulating emotions, or feeling overwhelmed despite “knowing better.” Many have done therapy before and have insight, but want support translating that awareness into real, lasting shifts. My approach integrates psychotherapy with somatic work to help regulate and rewire the nervous system so change is not just understood but experienced. For clients who feel blocked or unable to move forward, I also offer emerging neurofeedback to support deeper brain based change and neuroplasticity. I work with diverse populations and tailor treatment to meet each client where they are while guiding them toward meaningful, sustainable growth.

Dr. Nicholas Gensmer

Psychologist

Virtual • Florida


I earned my PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University of Florida and received clinical training in hospital and college counseling settings at the University of Florida, Northwestern University, and New College of Florida. I specialize in individual therapy with adults in their 20s, 30s, and 40s struggling with anxiety, OCD, trauma responses, adjustment stress, or identity struggles that make it difficult to balance the many demands of modern life.

As adults in this society, the pressures of adjusting to life changes, both expected and unexpected, and living up to the expectations of ourselves and others can feel overwhelming. This often results in perfectionism, low self-confidence, relationship difficulties, work difficulties, loss of meaning, depression, or burnout. Therapy can be a helpful way to address this.
