Renata Inigo is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 19 years of professional experience. Licensed in both Arizona and Utah, she focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, work through addictions, and heal from trauma and abuse, as well as supporting those coping with depression. She provides services in English and Spanish and applies clinical approaches tailored to each person's needs.

Renata emphasizes creating an open setting where thoughts and feelings can be expressed without fear of judgment. She guides clients through practical strategies and therapeutic techniques while attending to the emotional context behind their concerns. Her work addresses a range of issues including relationship and attachment challenges, life transitions, mood and panic disorders, and struggles with guilt, shame, or a sense of isolation.

Recognizing that seeking change takes courage, Renata partners with individuals to identify goals and build steps toward a more fulfilling life. Her practice blends evidence-informed methods with a compassionate, strengths-based stance to help people move forward at a pace that fits their circumstances.

Evidence-Informed Therapies and Online Care

Renata uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress. DBT is useful for people who struggle with overwhelming feelings, relationship conflicts, or patterns of impulsive behavior.

She also incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a therapy that helps process troubling memories and reduce the emotional charge tied to past traumatic events. EMDR can be helpful for those dealing with post-traumatic stress and other trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Renata collaborates with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time so treatment aligns with their needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility for scheduling and access, allowing people to meet with licensed professionals and therapists from home or other convenient locations. Sessions may take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, family, and life demands.
