Renee Sharper , LPC, LMHC

Renee Sharper is a licensed counselor who helps people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, and depression. She brings a calm, supportive style and encourages clients to use their own strengths when facing hard moments. Renee speaks plainly and works to make each session feel practical and focused.

Her approach centers on collaboration. She listens first, then helps people pick small, concrete steps they can try between sessions. Practical tools and steady encouragement define her work, whether someone needs help managing emotions or navigating a major life change.

Renee draws from several therapeutic methods. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot thinking patterns that get in the way. Attachment-based ideas help when past relationships affect current ones. Acceptance and commitment therapy offers ways to move toward valued goals even while difficult feelings are present.

She has seven years of professional experience and holds LPC and LMHC credentials. Renee practices in Texas and offers sessions in English. Her background includes supporting people with addiction concerns, grief, parenting stress, career questions, and identity matters such as LGBT concerns.

Sessions focus on clear, actionable goals. Clients can expect a mix of skills practice, real-life problem solving, and space to reflect on personal values. Renee aims to make therapy useful and relevant to everyday life.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Renee uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and then practice different responses. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and many day-to-day worries because it focuses on clear skills and experiments to try between sessions.

She also employs attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationships shape current connections. This approach helps when past hurts make trusting or communicating hard in close relationships. Acceptance and commitment therapy is used to help people clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values, even when difficult emotions are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renee will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then help pick methods that match those needs. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits the person rather than forcing a single technique.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is helpful for in-depth conversations and skills practice, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, and text or live chat can work for short check-ins or when someone needs a brief touchpoint during the week. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments.
