I've Always Been Fascinated by How We Connect
As a therapist, I help people get unstuck and build more connected lives.
Hey there, I’m Renée!
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Sex Therapist.*
But before therapy, I spent 20 years in corporate America—finance, HR, software consulting—so I get the pressure of demanding jobs, impossible schedules, and trying to hold everything together while quietly falling apart.
I'm compassionately direct. I'll ask tough questions (with a lot of empathy attached). I'm optimistic about change, but I'm also grounded and pragmatic about what it actually takes to get there.
What I love most about this work is watching people actually change their lives. The folks I work with put in real effort, and I get to be part of their long-term support system. That's something I don't take lightly.
When I'm not working, you'll find me at my daughter's hockey games, snuggling our dogs, near (or in) a body of water, knitting, or wandering through the woods with my partner.
*I’m a LMFT (#2725) and a Certified Sex Therapist (CST) credentialed through the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists. In addition, I am a Certified Telemental Health Provider.
We deserve to experience greater connection to ourselves, the people we love, and the community we live in.
I became a therapist because I wanted to help people learn new ways to behave, connect, and live. I believe that if we're breathing, we can change.
"[Renée is] very warm, nurturing, and passionate about what she does. She's confident, intelligent, and she can meet you where you're at while also being motivating."
