About Renee

Renee Lewis is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 42 years of professional experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and attention and focus difficulties. Sessions are conducted in English and she work with adults in California.

Over four decades of practice have given her experience with a broad range of issues. These include anxiety, stress, grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She also addresses parenting strain, communication problems, workplace issues, and concerns related to LGBT identity. Additional work has involved divorce and separation, infidelity, post-traumatic stress, seasonal affective disorder, and women’s issues.

Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. That means she and the person in therapy look at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect, and then try small, practical changes to shift patterns. Sessions include talking through current problems, testing new behaviors, and reviewing progress.

Her approach is straightforward and respectful. She adapts conversations and plans to the person sitting in front of her. People who want clear strategies for managing mood, focus, or relationship problems may find this approach useful.

How CBT shapes online sessions and what to expect

Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a primary method. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behavior. It is often used for depression, anxiety, stress, sleep problems, and difficulties with attention and focus.

The aim is collaborative. The therapist and client work together to set goals, try practical exercises between sessions, and review what helps. That makes it easier to adjust the plan if a technique isn’t working or if priorities change.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or reducing the need to be on camera for every meeting. Licensed professionals commonly use those options to help people maintain regular care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
