About Renee

Renee Sharper is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and depression. Renee also supports people facing addiction, grief, parenting strain, and life changes such as divorce or midlife reassessment.

She approaches therapy with the idea that each person knows their story best. Sessions focus on identifying strengths that can be put to use when facing difficult feelings and decisions. Renee uses clear, practical conversation to help people notice patterns that get in the way and to try different ways of responding.

Her work draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. That mix lets her offer hands-on coping skills, attention to relationships and attachment, and space for people to reflect on values and purpose.

Renee often helps people who struggle with people-pleasing, boundary problems, codependency patterns, shame, or guilt. She can talk through how attachment and past losses shape current relationships, and help develop clearer boundaries and steadier emotional responses.

Practical steps in sessions include noticing automatic thoughts, testing new behaviors, and building small routines that reduce overwhelm. Renee works in English and practices in Texas. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking flow.

How sessions work

How Renee uses therapeutic approaches in online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then clarify what matters and take action that matches those values. It can help with anxiety, avoidance, and getting unstuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now, and helps people name and change repeating interaction habits that create pain in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renee will talk with each person about goals, history, and what feels useful. Together they decide whether to focus on skills training, values-guided actions, or looking at attachment patterns in relationships so sessions fit the person's needs and preferences.

Confirm current session options before booking. The practical benefits people often report from working with licensed professionals online include fitting sessions into a busy week, having shorter check-ins when time is limited, and choosing formats that reduce the need for travel or extra time off work. If you want to focus on managing anxiety, practicing boundary language, or trying behavioral experiments between sessions, that can be planned into remote work as part of the therapy process.
