About Renee
Renee Sharper is an LPC, Licensed Professional Counselor, and an LMHC, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, practicing in Texas with seven years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression. Renee focuses on practical steps people can take to manage day-to-day problems and painful feelings.
She starts by listening to what the person says about their life and what they want to change. She treats each person as the expert on their own story and builds on existing strengths. Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented, with action items to try between meetings.
Renee uses several approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Attachment-Based Therapy. She blends these methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice different responses, and repair important relationships. The work often includes skill-building for emotion regulation and clearer communication.
Her style is direct and practical. People can expect a focus on what to try next rather than long talks without a plan. She helps with parenting stresses, grief, addiction concerns, and major life changes, including issues like abandonment and codependency.
Renee has worked across a range of challenges such as domestic violence, first responder issues, veteran and armed forces concerns, HIV/AIDS related needs, and coping after disasters. She also supports people dealing with career decisions, midlife questions, and the fallout from infidelity or divorce.
How her approaches translate to online work
Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT tends to focus on short-term steps you can practice between sessions and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people accept difficult feelings while choosing actions that match their values. ACT can be helpful for coping with ongoing pain, grief, or life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at relationship patterns and how early bonds affect current connections; this approach helps with trust, abandonment concerns, and communication problems.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Renee will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as needs change.

Online work can make brief check-ins, regular weekly slots, or skill-practice sessions simpler to manage while balancing daily commitments.
