Renata Inigo , LCMHC

Renata Inigo is a licensed counselor (LCMHC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma, and depression. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 19 years of clinical experience to her work in Utah. Renata emphasizes straightforward care that people can use in daily life.

Her sessions open with what matters most to the client. She creates time to listen and to understand practical struggles like panic, social anxiety, or feeling stuck after a separation. Conversations focus on real steps that can ease symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.

Renata uses tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. She also draws on Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for addressing traumatic memories and on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals. These approaches are blended to match each person's needs rather than applied the same way to everyone.

People often seek her help for issues tied to relationships and self-worth, including abandonment, attachment concerns, guilt, shame, and challenges connected to women’s issues. She also supports those facing workplace stress, midlife questions, and struggles with life purpose.

Her manner is direct but warm. She aims to make sessions practical and understandable. For people who prefer remote options, she offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on building practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships; it often includes short exercises and coaching that work well in video or messaging formats. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing helps process traumatic memories through a structured protocol, and parts of that work can be adapted to remote sessions with guidance from a therapist. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clear, short-term goals and small steps forward, making it easy to track progress between appointments.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss your history, goals, and what feels most useful to you. Together you can try a method and adjust it over time so sessions match your needs and preferences.

Online formats offer flexibility for different days and routines. Video calls are useful for full sessions and visual cues. Phone sessions can be quicker or easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients check in between meetings or use shorter, focused check-ins when schedules are tight. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into work and family life.
