Renee Brandon , LPC

Renee Brandon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She creates a direct and compassionate space where adults can talk about stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting struggles, and major life changes without judgment.

Renee focuses on clear, practical work alongside emotional support. Sessions blend listening with concrete tools clients can use between meetings. She aims to help people manage overwhelming feelings and cope with everyday pressures caused by work, caregiving, or relationship strain.

Her background includes leadership and operational roles in behavioral health and healthcare. That experience informs how she sees the real-world demands clients face when balancing careers, caregiving, and personal wellbeing. Renee uses that perspective to ground conversations in everyday realities.

Renee’s style is collaborative and straightforward. She discusses goals with each person and adjusts her approach to what they need in the moment. Therapy can be short-term for focused concerns or longer-term for deeper self-understanding and healing.

People often seek her help for burnout, panic or post-traumatic stress symptoms, pregnancy and childbirth related stress, workplace problems, and issues common to women’s lives. She also supports those dealing with caregiver strain, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt, and questions about life purpose.

Sessions are offered from Missouri and conducted in English. Renee encourages anyone feeling stuck or overwhelmed to take the first step and begin a conversation.

How CBT and online sessions work together

Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-focused, and it is commonly used for anxiety, panic, depression, and stress-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Renee will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then adapt CBT techniques to fit those needs. She works together with clients to decide whether short-term skill building or longer-term exploration is best.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into daily life. Video lets people practice skills in conversation and read visual cues, phone can be a quicker check-in with less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can help maintain steady contact between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities while keeping therapeutic progress consistent.
