About Renee
Renee Dupuis is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia with 24 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, social anxiety, phobias, ADHD, career strain, self-esteem issues, and life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer ways to manage hard moments.
Renee uses straightforward methods to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going and to test small changes in thinking and behavior. This often looks like setting concrete goals, trying new coping skills between sessions, and reviewing what helps and what doesn’t.
Her approach emphasizes skills people can use right away. For someone with social anxiety that might mean graded exposure tasks. For addictive behaviors it can mean building routines and coping plans that reduce urges. She explains techniques in plain language and checks progress regularly.
Renee’s background includes long-term clinical work in Virginia and many hours supporting adults through substance use and anxiety concerns. She frames work as problem-solving with measurable steps rather than long, vague conversations.
People who prefer clear structure, concrete homework, and repeated practice tend to find this kind of work helpful. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and can start by completing the site matching questionnaire.
How CBT-based work translates to online sessions
Renee commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT here means breaking concerns into manageable parts, setting specific goals, and practicing concrete skills between sessions. That approach is often used for anxiety, social fears, and addictive behaviors.The process of identifying the best methods is collaborative. Renee will review current difficulties, discuss goals, and suggest approaches to try. Clients and the therapist check progress together and adjust methods based on what helps most.
The original biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people try exposure steps or behavioral experiments with guidance from a licensed professional without changing daily routines. Discuss format preferences when you schedule so the therapist and client can choose the most practical arrangement.
