About Renee
Renee Rhoades is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, and LGBT-related concerns. She greets new clients with sensitivity and respect and aims to create a straightforward, practical path forward. Renee acknowledges that starting therapy can feel hard and encourages people for taking that step.
Renee draws on 18 years of experience working with a wide range of concerns, including depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with parenting stress, caregiving burdens, chronic illness, and major life changes. Her practice pays attention to intimacy-related issues, sexual diversity including BDSM and kink topics, and attachment or abandonment themes.
In sessions she focuses on clear conversations and realistic planning. She tailors dialogue and goals to each person’s needs instead of using the same approach for everyone. That can mean short-term coaching around a specific problem or a longer process to work through deeper patterns.
Renee holds the credential LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and CSW. She practices in Colorado and communicates in English. She welcomes international clients and brings nearly two decades of experience to her work.
Her style is practical and compassionate. People can expect a calm, steady presence and help breaking large problems into small steps. The aim is to make daily life feel more manageable and to build skills that last beyond the therapy session.
Therapeutic approaches and what online work can look like
Renee uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful patterns in thinking and behavior, then tests small changes to see what improves day-to-day functioning. This style is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Another frequent focus is working through trauma and loss by creating a safe way to tell the story and regulate strong emotions. That work helps reduce overwhelming reactions and supports better coping after difficult events, including natural or human-caused disasters.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust plans together as you learn what helps. Clients are invited to share preferences and feedback so the work feels useful and realistic.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use online work to maintain continuity during life changes, but details about exact formats should be verified with the therapist.
