About Renee
Renee Sloan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 18 years in the mental health field. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, and related concerns like self-esteem, motivation, and relationship strain. Her approach is straightforward and practical, aimed at helping people make clear, manageable changes.
Renee focuses on identifying personal strengths and using them to address current problems. She draws on methods that teach concrete skills for handling strong feelings and improving daily functioning. Sessions tend to center on what can be changed now and small steps that lead to better coping.
Her background includes work with people facing severe mental illness and those with special needs, giving her experience with a broad range of challenges. She also supports people navigating LGBTQIA+ related concerns and issues connected to grief, trauma, or life transitions. Her practice has developed over nearly two decades of clinical work in Georgia.
Renee uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. That can mean learning skills to manage anger, building routines to improve sleep, or practicing communication techniques for tense situations. She explains tools clearly and focuses on what someone can do between sessions.
Anyone considering working with her should be prepared for practical skill-building and collaborative planning. To start, you would complete the site's matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to talk through goals and next steps.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT exercises tend to be practical tasks and thought records that a person can try between sessions to test what works.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT offers step-by-step tools people can practice to reduce reactivity, manage anger, and communicate more clearly under stress.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. In an initial session she will talk with a client about current problems, goals, and preferences, and then suggest strategies to try. The plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.
The specific session formats available with her should be confirmed before booking. If you plan to work online, consider what fits your routine - shorter check-ins can fit a work break, audio-only sessions use less bandwidth, and scheduled video sessions allow live skills coaching. Confirm the offered formats when you set up your first appointment so sessions fit into everyday life.
