About Renee

Renee Sharper is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Texas. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, and related concerns. Renee speaks plain, direct language and focuses on practical steps that feel doable day to day.

She approaches counseling as a collaborative process. Renee treats each person as the expert on their own life and builds on their existing strengths. Sessions focus on clear goals, small experiments, and tools that can be used between meetings.

Renee draws on several well-known methods to tailor care to what a person needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts and behaviors. She also works from attachment-informed ideas and client-centered principles to strengthen relationships and self-understanding.

Clients can expect a steady, supportive presence and concrete practices for coping. Renee emphasizes simple skills for managing anger, reducing anxiety, and handling difficult moments. She also helps people consider longer-term questions like career direction and life purpose.

With seven years of experience, Renee brings practical experience from a variety of settings. She encourages people to notice what works, adjust when needed, and take gradual steps toward a more manageable life.

Approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, anger, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going and then practicing alternatives to reduce symptoms and improve everyday functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current needs and reactions, and it helps people build more secure ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan based on what fits the person’s situation and pace.

Confirm session formats before booking since specific options are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life and reduce travel time. It can also make it easier to schedule check-ins during the week, use brief phone check-ins when days are hectic, or focus on skill practice during video meetings when seeing facial cues is useful. Licensed professionals can help tailor timing and session length to everyday demands without promising a particular format.
