Rene Jourdan, LCPC

Rene Jourdan is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Idaho with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, and trauma and abuse. Rene also lists codependency among her focus areas and helps people dealing with family strain, parenting challenges, career stress, and ADHD-related difficulties.

Rene uses an integrated, person-centered approach. She combines elements of cognitive behavioral ideas with acceptance and commitment concepts and attachment-focused thinking. In practice this means sessions often focus on what matters to the client, small behavior changes, and clearer thinking about relationships and patterns.

Her background includes more than five years providing crisis support through the North Idaho Crisis Line. She has supervised programs in family and peer support and in substance use treatment. That program work informs her work with people who have comorbid diagnoses and those navigating addiction concerns.

In addition to individual work, Rene runs and has led multiple group programs. Examples include coping skills groups, basic mental health processing groups, and group-based addiction treatment using the Matrix Model framework. These group experiences shape how she structures practical skill-building in individual sessions.

When people come for help with boundaries, people-pleasing, or feeling lost in a relationship, sessions tend to look at patterns and try small, doable changes. She asks about current stresses and what a better day would look like, then works with clients on specific steps toward those goals.
