About Rene

Rene Morago-Barton is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (FL LMHC) with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and substance use concerns. Rene also supports those dealing with relationship and family challenges, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and career or life changes.

Rene trained in psychology and counseling and has worked in agency, inpatient, and private practice settings. That variety gave her experience with different situations and life stages. She draws on several practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new responses.

Her practice uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based ideas, and a client-centered, solution-focused stance. In sessions she addresses negative self-talk, low self-esteem, mood instability, and racing or overwhelming thoughts. She also works with substance use and coping after trauma or loss.

Rene often helps people who are adjusting to blended family life, caregiver stress, communication breakdowns, or control and codependency issues. She also has experience with first responder issues, dissociation, domestic violence, and forgiveness work. Her approach is practical and focuses on specific skills and steps people can try between meetings.

Sessions are conducted in English and Rene accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches adapt to online work

Rene uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in straightforward, skills-based ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors through practical exercises and between-session tasks. ACT emphasizes noticing thoughts and values-based action so people can pursue meaningful goals even when difficult feelings arise.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in relationships and how they affect coping. Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most.

The profile does not specify session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often use these formats to help people practice new skills between meetings and to apply strategies directly to everyday situations.
