About Renee

Renee Sloan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 18 years of experience. She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and issues tied to identity and intimacy. She also supports people facing addiction, trauma and grief, sleep disruption, parenting strain, ADHD, and career-related stress.

Renee frames therapy as a practical, step-by-step process. She helps clients identify strengths and small next steps. Sessions focus on clear skills and real-life strategies rather than abstract theory. The aim is steady progress people can notice between visits.

Her approach includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques. That means she helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns, test them, and practice new ways of coping. She also teaches grounding and emotion-regulation skills for intense feelings or impulsive behavior.

Renee has worked across a range of clinical settings during her 18 years in the field. She draws on that experience when helping people manage complicated issues such as severe mood disturbance, dissociation, attachment wounds, and family role stress. Her style is practical and relational - she listens, reflects, and suggests tools clients can try between sessions.

People who come to her often want clear guidance and concrete tools. Renee supports them in creating routines, improving communication, and rebuilding confidence. Prospective clients are encouraged to consider whether this practical, skills-based approach feels like a good fit.

How CBT and DBT inform online work

Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT sessions often include clear exercises to test beliefs, small behavior changes, and homework to try between meetings.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal strategies. DBT techniques can be useful for managing intense emotions, impulsive reactions, and improving communication under stress.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Renee will work with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean starting with CBT-style experiments and adding DBT skills when emotion management becomes a focus. The plan adapts as progress is made.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Online work can make it simpler to maintain continuity during life changes and to try skills in real-world moments between meetings.
