About Renee
Renee Alfieri is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are facing addictions, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, depression, and the stress of life changes. Renee also addresses anxiety, grief, intimacy concerns, and codependency-related patterns.
She uses a conversational, client-centered style that focuses on what matters to the person in front of her. Sessions typically look like clear, practical conversations about goals, habits, and choices. Renee integrates cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and to try small behavior changes that can make daily life easier.
Mindfulness tools and solution-focused strategies are part of her approach when they fit the client's needs. These tools are used to slow down strong emotions, notice thought patterns, and build short-term plans to handle stressful moments. Motivational interviewing helps people find reasons to change when they feel stuck.
Renee works with people across a wide range of concerns including parenting strain, career stress, ADHD, trauma and abuse, eating-related distress, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, blended family concerns, and dependency patterns that leave them putting others first.
Her practice aims for straightforward, measurable steps rather than vague promises. To begin, a brief matching questionnaire and an initial session help clarify priorities and set a first plan for work together.
How sessions work
How Renee's approaches translate to online work
Renee often draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in sessions. Client-centered work focuses on listening and shaping conversations around what the person wants to change. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at specific thoughts and behaviors, then tests small changes to see what helps with mood, anxiety, or addictive urges.She also uses mindfulness practices to help people notice strong feelings and reduce reactivity. Mindfulness exercises can be short and practical, useful for grounding during intense moments or building tolerance for stress. Together, these approaches target both immediate coping and gradual habit change, and the therapist will work with the client to identify which fits best.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Renee collaborates with clients to set goals, try a method, and adjust based on what works. This collaborative planning helps make sessions focused and relevant to daily life.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy schedule, manage short check-ins between obligations, reduce travel time, and use shorter practices like brief breathing exercises when needed.
