About Renee
Renee Wells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She works with individuals facing relationship and intimacy questions, parenting strain, addiction concerns, and the effects of trauma.
Background and approach
Renee aims to create a calm space where people can speak openly and begin practical change. Her approach is collaborative and non-judgmental.
She draws on methods such as the Gottman Method, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based work, client-centered techniques, and cognitive behavioral therapy to match each person’s needs. Sessions emphasize clear goals, skills practice, and steady emotional processing.
Renee brings 20 years of experience in the mental health field. Her work includes helping people cope with life transitions, manage ADHD and bipolar symptoms, address body image and eating concerns, and handle caregiver stress.
She also supports those navigating abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, chronic illness, and communication problems. Therapy sessions use straightforward tools people can apply between meetings, such as thought-tracking, behavioral experiments, grounding exercises, and relationship skills.
Renee encourages small, achievable steps toward better sleep, improved mood, stronger communication, and clearer boundaries. She offers sessions in Michigan and conducts meetings in English using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Getting started involves a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Renee uses a few core approaches to shape online work. The Gottman Method focuses on practical relationship skills, communication patterns, and rebuilding trust through structured exercises and clear steps. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck and then choose actions that match their values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people form more stable connections and healthier ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Renee listens to each person’s goals, preferences, and concerns and then recommends methods that fit. She will check in regularly and adjust the plan so the work stays relevant and useful for daily life.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers no camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, mood tracking, skill practice, or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it easier to keep consistent progress while fitting therapy into a busy life.
