About Renisha
Renisha Oubre is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. She speaks plainly and listens first. Parents who are worried about mood shifts, behavior, or relationships will find a calm, steady presence.
With 12 years of experience in counseling, she draws on approaches that center the person in the room. Sessions often begin with the client’s story and move toward practical skills for daily life.
Background and approach
Renisha tailors tools so they fit each person’s goals and rhythms. Her work includes support for parenting challenges, relationship strain, addiction concerns, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar mood swings. She also helps people coping with trauma, loss, anger, and self-esteem struggles.
Clients with ADHD, autism spectrum concerns, or intellectual disability may receive strategies aimed at improving routine, focus, and communication. Renisha uses methods like client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior skills, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. These approaches are applied in straightforward ways - practicing new thoughts, building coping skills, and learning calmer responses to stress.
Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs. She practices in Louisiana as an LPC and works with English-speaking clients. The initial steps are simple: complete a short questionnaire, match with her, and schedule a session.
Therapeutic approaches for online change
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding your perspective and supporting your choices. In sessions the therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and helps clients decide the next steps that feel right for them.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It teaches simple exercises to shift unhelpful thoughts and build new routines for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges.
Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It includes attention to distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and clearer communication for people struggling with anger, impulsivity, or mood swings.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and daily life. Together they try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.
Online therapy makes those steps easier to fit into a busy week. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can offer quicker check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options provide flexibility so people can practice skills consistently and keep therapy moving forward.
