Background and approach

She also supports those carrying long-term caregiver responsibilities and the pressures that come with them. In session she uses straightforward conversation and problem-solving. She helps clients name priorities, set small goals, and test changes that make daily life feel easier.

Appointments are a place to sort options and practice new ways of coping. Renee’s independent practice includes guidance for people who are caring for aging loved ones. That work often focuses on planning, finding supports, and balancing care tasks with other life demands.

She helps people weigh options and build routines that reduce strain. People who choose Renee can expect an approach that values clarity and steady progress. She draws on years of hands-on social work experience and keeps the focus on what will help each person move forward in their life.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care

Renee draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical coping and problem solving. Problem-solving approaches break down overwhelming tasks into manageable steps and are useful for caregiving challenges and everyday stress. These methods help people create routines, prioritize tasks, and test small changes that reduce day-to-day strain.

She also uses grief-focused strategies that allow people to name losses, process strong emotions, and find ways to remember while moving forward. These approaches offer tools for managing intense feelings, building supports, and planning next steps after a loss.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renee works collaboratively to choose techniques that match a person's needs, goals, and values. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts methods as progress and priorities change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people read facial expression and build rapport. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, reflection, or when fitting care into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep momentum and adapt therapy to real life.
