About Renee
Renee Sharper is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She focuses on practical, steady support so people can feel more capable in daily life.
Her approach is warm and person-focused, with attention to strengths and small steps for change. Renee views each person as the expert on their own story.
Background and approach
She listens first, then works with clients to set clear, achievable goals. Sessions emphasize building skills that people can use between meetings. This often includes coping strategies for worry, tools for emotion regulation, and ways to handle conflict or loss.
Her background blends several therapeutic approaches to match what each person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers ways to shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clarify values and take committed action.
Attachment-based methods look at how relationship patterns affect current struggles. With seven years of clinical experience, Renee draws on that practical work to guide conversations and interventions. She supports people dealing with addictions, parenting stress, career questions, identity concerns including LGBT issues, and life transitions such as divorce or midlife change.
Renee offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location and therapist availability.
Therapeutic approaches in online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that fit their values. It can be useful for anxiety, life transitions, and finding direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce worry and change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early or current relationship patterns shape reactions and coping, which can help with relationship strain and attachment concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renee will collaborate with each person to match methods to goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time, checking in to make sure the plan feels helpful and realistic for the client's life.
Online sessions using video calls or phone let people meet without travel and fit therapy into busy schedules. Live chat and text-based messaging offer shorter check-ins, written reflections, or support between appointments. These formats provide flexibility for different energy levels, bandwidth limits, or needs for a quick message instead of a full session.
