Renee Brandon is a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 11 years of experience helping adults manage anxiety, depression, stress, grief, and big life changes. She offers a direct and compassionate presence so people can talk through what feels overwhelming. Renee creates a nonjudgmental space where practical next steps matter as much as being heard.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Sessions combine listening with concrete tools that clients can use between appointments.
Background and approach
She uses approaches grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and shift unhelpful thinking. Renee also brings experience from behavioral health leadership and healthcare operations. That background gives her insight into workplace stress, caregiver strain, and the pressure of juggling many roles.
She uses that perspective to make treatment realistic for busy lives. People come to her for a range of concerns including parenting stress, communication struggles, control issues, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and challenges around pregnancy and childbirth. She supports efforts to process grief, repair after separation, and rebuild purpose when life feels uncertain.
Renee tailors the pace and focus to each person’s needs. She can work short-term for a specific issue or longer-term for deeper change. Her aim is steady progress through honest conversation and practical skills.
How CBT and online formats work together
Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT sessions are often hands-on and goal oriented, using simple experiments and practice tasks to reduce anxiety, manage panic, or address depressive thinking.She emphasizes a collaborative process when choosing approaches. The therapist and client look at the client’s goals, life situation, and preferences to decide what techniques to try. That means plans can shift over time as needs and progress change.
Online therapy formats make that collaboration easier to fit into everyday life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and feedback. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option when connections are limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging enable shorter check-ins, written coaching between sessions, and ongoing reminders about practice tasks. These options help people keep continuity of care while balancing work, caregiving, and other commitments.
