Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new ways of responding, which can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and day-to-day overwhelm. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, supporting clients who want steadier coping and healthier communication. She also draws from Client-Centered Therapy, emphasizing empathy and collaboration so clients can explore experiences at their own pace and build on existing strengths.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rene partners with clients to clarify goals, understand what has and has not helped in the past, and choose strategies that fit their needs and preferences. The process is collaborative, with room to adjust over time as new insights and priorities emerge.
