About Renee

Renee Dupuis is a licensed professional counselor in Virginia who helps adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, and life transitions.

Background and approach

With 24 years of clinical experience, she focuses on practical strategies that support people dealing with social anxiety, phobias, drug and alcohol concerns, and challenges related to self-esteem and career development. Her practice emphasizes an evidence-based orientation, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills.

Renee aims to create a collaborative space where clients can explore patterns, practice new responses, and set achievable goals for change. She combines a compassionate stance with structured interventions to address both immediate distress and longer-term growth.

Clients find her approach grounded in real-world tools for managing emotions and relationships while navigating transitions such as young adult issues and shifts in career or family roles. Renee supports people through each step of the process, offering guidance that balances practical techniques with personal insight.

CBT-informed Online Care and Flexible Session Options

Renee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is practical and skills-focused, often used for anxiety, stress, social phobia, and addiction-related concerns. CBT typically involves setting clear goals, practicing new coping techniques, and tracking progress between sessions to build lasting change.

The choice of therapeutic approach is made collaboratively. She works with each client to determine which strategies fit their goals and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so therapy remains aligned with what the client needs and hopes to achieve.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity when schedules change. These remote formats support ongoing work on skills, allow flexible check-ins between sessions, and make it possible to receive consistent care from licensed professionals regardless of location within Virginia.
