About Renee

Renee Guerrieri is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 27 years of clinical experience offering support for relationship challenges, grief, intimacy-related concerns, parenting questions, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

She draws on a range of evidence-informed techniques to help clients address issues such as abandonment, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns, divorce and separation, and feelings of guilt or shame, tailoring her approach to fit each person’s circumstances. Her practice emphasizes practical skills and brief, solution-oriented interventions when appropriate, combined with deeper exploration of emotional patterns and connection.

Renee is trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other structured approaches that help people reframe unhelpful thoughts and adopt actionable coping strategies, and she also brings experience with interventions that foster emotional attunement and improved relational communication. She offers psycho-educational work on topics like fair fighting, rebuilding trust, and parenting skills, adapting sessions to the specific goals presented.

Renee works with a wide variety of concerns including hospice and end-of-life counseling, caregiver stress, isolation, and life purpose questions. She aims to meet clients with respect, compassion, and unconditional positive regard, and collaborates with each person to create a customized plan for growth and healing.

Integrating relational approaches with online therapy

Renee commonly uses Internal Family Systems to help people understand the different parts of themselves and how those parts affect relationships and inner conflict. This approach encourages gentle curiosity about internal experiences and can be useful for working with feelings like shame, grief, or protective patterns.

She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and building psychological flexibility through mindfulness and committed action. ACT can support clients coping with life transitions, persistent distress, or challenges in making meaningful changes.

Finding the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process. Renee works with each client to assess goals, preferences, and the problem at hand, then adapts methods to fit their needs rather than relying on a single technique.

Online sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and the convenience of meeting from different locations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access therapy in a way that fits everyday life.
