About Renee

Renee Sloan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 18 years of experience. She focuses on practical ways to reduce stress and anxiety and to improve daily functioning. Renee aims to help people notice what’s working, build on strengths, and take small steps toward change.

She uses straightforward conversations and goal-focused work. Sessions often include tools to manage strong emotions, improve sleep, and tackle relationship or career stresses.

Background and approach

Renee blends strategies that target thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so clients can try new approaches between meetings. Her background includes many years in mental health settings supporting people through mood disorders, addiction concerns, and trauma. That experience informs a calm, steady style in sessions and a focus on skills that can be used right away.

Clients get clear options and simple techniques to practice at home. Renee describes people as the authors of their own stories and centers hope and agency in her work. She helps identify strengths and uses those insights to address burdens that interfere with daily life.

The goal is gradual, sustainable change rather than quick fixes. Therapy with Renee typically looks like a mix of talking, learning practical skills, and setting manageable goals. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to match the format to their needs.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking patterns and build routines that improve mood and sleep. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clear communication skills. It offers concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. DBT techniques can help when someone struggles with impulsive reactions or overwhelming feelings.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Renee will talk with each person about goals, challenges, and preferences before recommending strategies. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as needed based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face-to-face from home, while phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide options for shorter check-ins or times when talking live is hard. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into school, work, or family life and to use new skills in real-world moments.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
