Style
Renee is genuine, warm, and often direct. She is committed to developing a safe, honest, and real connection between her and her “people.” Expect that she will seek to fully understand your mental health and presenting issues, as well as your background story. She hopes you will feel that you understand yourself and your situation more too. No two sessions are the same but don’t be surprised if there are questions, stories, laughs, tears, analysis, strategies, and insights. Renee will stay focused on what change is meaningful to you and will work with you and your other professionals towards improving your mental health, wellbeing, and relationships.
