About Renee

Renee Wells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 20 years of experience working in the mental health field. She also has training as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) - a credential that reflects specialized expertise in assessing and supporting behavior change. Renee brings a compassionate, nonjudgmental, and collaborative style to her practice, creating an environment where people can speak openly and work through difficult emotions.

Her clinical focus includes stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, parenting, and coping with life changes. Many of the challenges she treats are rooted in trauma, loss, or events that interfere with emotional processing. To address these patterns she commonly integrates EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - as part of a broader treatment plan, and often combines it with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based methods.

Renee emphasizes partnership in therapy, helping people unlearn limiting responses and build practical skills for daily life. She approaches each case with attention to individual history and goals, and looks forward to supporting clients through meaningful change.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and adjust patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress. It focuses on practical strategies and skills that can reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and challenges with coping skills. Both approaches translate well to remote sessions and can be adapted to address trauma-related symptoms when combined with other methods.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Renee works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to determine which techniques best match a person’s goals, history, and preferences. Treatment plans are flexible and may blend multiple methods to address complex concerns.

Online therapy offers practical benefits such as scheduling flexibility and easier access to care. Sessions can take place via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that fits their routine and comfort level. This range of options helps people maintain continuity of care while working toward meaningful change.
